Does This Count As A Life Hack?
Weighted blankets exploded in popularity a few years ago because they’re like a full-body hug for anxious folks. The deep pressure is similar to tough, which can encourage the release of our favorite happy hormones, serotonin and dopamine. The only problem is that they can be heavier on your wallet than on your bed.
Enter Snarky Mommy’s solution of burying yourself under a mountain of unfolded clothes that you were too stressed and busy to bother with. Maybe once you get those serotonin and dopamine hits, you’ll finally have the mental power to fold it all. Just make sure you’re wrapping up in clothes from the clean basket instead of the dirty one unless you’re looking for sweaty surprise aromatherapy.
