"I recently upgraded my bedding to Naturepedic’s organic cotton sheets, and I was genuinely amazed at how soft and cozy they felt. Each night I sleep wrapped in these plush layers, I’m reminded just how luxurious and breathable bedding can be. They made such a difference in my sleep quality!" [Read my full review]


How one reader is healing:

"I just went through a break-up and as hard as it is to admit, I let my relationship occupy SO MUCH of my attention and emotional output/input, etc. In the wake of the goodbye, I am emptying myself of all the expectations that were tied up in my partner and I (decidedly taking a break from dating) am finding myself available to the world around me once again. I'm no longer holding onto that ONE thing, but experiencing every little thing with great joy because the little thing means something more to me as I heal. The 30 minutes of golden light at sunset; the random walk with my neighbor who I've never conversed with; the extra dog cuddles; the birds nesting on my porch...life is beautiful even if I'm grieving. That rich simplicity all around me is a balm to my aching heart and not only am I grateful to notice that in this particular season of life, I'm humbled by how the little thing can mean so much." –MM
