Babies and children spend even more. If you are concerned about the quality of the clothes you and your children wear, then you should be just as concerned \u2013 if not more \u2013 about the quality of your bedding. Because, really, who wants to spend so many hours of one’s day breathing in toxins in one’s bedroom? We’re exposed to enough of that already, right?<\/p>\n
People talk a lot about how much sleep, but even more important is the quality of that sleep. Linen whisks away moisture, meaning that it can absorb water to up to 20% of its weight and still feel dry to the touch. So whether it’s cold or warm outside, your linen bedding is working hard to keep your body at a comfortable temperature while you \u2013 or your children \u2013 sleep.\u00a0 And let’s face it, if your children are sleeping better, so will you.<\/p>\n
Just what is it that makes linen better for the environment, you ask? Well, there are many reasons for that, they have to do with how flax is grown (without pesticides, it’s a crop that replenishes the soil, it needs no additional irrigation), how linen fabric is produced and where it is produced (over 80% of the world’s flax linen is grown in Europe).<\/p>\n
Can we do some maths here? A set of linen bedding can cost just as little as pennies a day if you calculate the amount of time that you will be able to love and cherish your bed linens. If you buy two sets and rotate them each week, they’ll last even longer.<\/p>\n
The fibres in linen fabric are long and durable. When linen fibres get wet, they retain their shape.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
