Most of us will have a weekly routine for washing our bed sheets, and of course, we all know the importance of making our bed in the morning for our mental health. But one sleep hygiene task that often falls to the wayside, is ensuring we thoroughly air out our bedding. And in fact, it’s probably far more important than you think it is.
While washing your bedding is obviously essential (and there are many bedding laundry mistakes you should avoid), airing your bedding on a regular basis is probably something you've rarely considered – and as such, is something that many of us don’t actually do. But according to the experts, airing every component of your bed out will likely help to prolong the life of your bedding, prevent mold and other nasties, and put simply, should make for an all-round more pleasant sleeping experience.
