I generally like your essays, but this narrative seems force fitted around the bedsheets and feels like an advertisement

What I love most is how you've deconstructed the mythology around earning comfort. The line "comfort isn't a luxury it's a basic human need" should be printed on billboards.

I sadly have to agree with the conment by Nithya above…

I read all your posts because I can connect with them but my heart sank when I read this one.

I stopped using Instagram ages ago, partly due to the contributers I followed becoming ‘ influencers’, posting narrative and images of products that they’d been gifted by companies.

This post did feel forced around product placement sadly…

I do this to be a soft place to land for myself. No earning needed.

I latched onto nearly every word of this post. Thank you for the gentle reminder that it's not only okay--it's necessary--to tune out at times in order to tune into ourselves. I hadn't thought of my bed as a safe, soft landing space when the world feels sharp, loud, and dissonant. Coincidentally, I just happened to order a new sheet set this morning, and I look forward to crafting a sanctuary of my own with the inspiration of your rituals!
