SHEET ABOUT DRYER SHEETS:

Do you still toss in a dryer sheet every time you do your laundry? It might be time to leave that old habit behind. Some experts say that those sheets are doing more harm than good to your clothes, your dryer and, most importantly, to the environment. Patric Richardson (‘The Laundry Guy’ on Discovery+) says dryer sheets don’t actually make your clothes any softer, although it might feel that way, due to the fact that the sheets are coated with a chemical solution that transfers to your garments when heated up. That residue builds up over time and can contribute to clothing and towels smelling ‘musty’ or ‘stale’ even after they’ve been laundered. That film also builds up in your dryer, which will can affect the appliance’s effectiveness over time, and increase your utility bill. What’s more, the sheets themselves become litter that can’t be reused and don’t decompose easily. Try wool dryer balls instead, which are a more sustainable option, that can be reused for years

Acting Younger, Feeling younger

A 2017 study found that the key to feeling younger is acting younger – and occasionally sillier. Researchers in the UK polled adults on the effects of nostalgia and youthful behavior on mental and physical health, and nearly ¾ of respondents indicated that occasionally forgetting you’re an adult and tapping into a more immature mindset — be it watching old cartoons, pulling pranks on friends, or playing classic board games — was important for their health. Also effective: the simple act of being silly – by imitating others, making goofy faces, or blowing bubbles through a straw.
