After a long day of staring at various screens—whether it’s a computer screen for work or my phone to wind down afterwards—my eyes are begging for relief. I also regularly get headaches and migraines, and though I’m not sure that my screen time is entirely to blame, I know it doesn’t help.

I really don’t like being hot. I dread the arrival of hot weather and fantasize about ways to escape it. As soon as the heat threatens, I panic-load the freezer with Popsicles and pull out the fans from the closet.

My house has ductless mini-splits, so I’ve found it especially helpful to have fans to spread that cool, delicious conditioned air to areas it can’t quite reach on its own.

Then I tried the Onsen Waffle Bath Towel, one of the picks in our towel guide.
