Incase your grandma didn’t teach you ...

hi friends!!

Incase your grandma didn’t teach you how to freshen a mattress, here’s how!

- Your sheets get washed weekly… but when’s the last time you cleaned your mattress?

- Here’s the easiest natural way to keep it fresh + odor-free:

What you’ll need:

-1 cup baking soda

-5–10 drops of lavender or eucalyptus oil (optional)

-Vacuum with upholstery attachment how to clean it:

-Strip the bed + wash bedding.

-Sprinkle baking soda evenly over the mattress. -(Mix with essential oil first if you want extra freshness!)

-Let it sit for 30–60 minutes (or longer if you can).

-Vacuum thoroughly to remove the baking soda + trapped odors. after that, your bed is refreshed and new! :)

Lavender and Eucalyptus oils are not cat safe. Most essential oils are not cat safe really. Their livers can’t metabolize the ingredients and it can straight up poison them.

Neurodivergent people don’t need to “try harder” socially. We need clearer boundaries. When cues and red flags aren’t obvious in the moment, boundaries do the protecting for us. #boundaries #audhd #autism #adhd #neurodivergent
