How to Naturally Clean and Whiten Your Yellowed Pillows

In this video, we will show you step-by-step instructions on how to wash, clean and whiten your yellowed pillows.

Have you ever stopped to think about how we spend one-third of our lives asleep? For many, sleeping may seem like a waste of time, but they're very wrong.

A good night's sleep is vital for our mental and physical health. It helps to prevent stress, and improve memory and mood. Furthermore, sleeping well every night helps prevent heart disease and diabetes.

Once you know about these benefits, you kind of want to make sure you are getting some good quality sleep, right?

In order to sleep well, we need to pay attention to our sheets and pillow. Check your sheets, mattress, the bed itself, and make sure everything looks good. A dirty pillow will attract mites and other microbes that can affect your health. Mites, for example, can create allergies and even breathing and skin problems.

With this in mind, we're going to show you some tips to keep your pillows clean and free of dust, mites, sweat, and other residue from our skin.

Lemon Juice and Hot Water
Lemon juice is one of the best natural cleaning products to use on white surfaces. It disinfects and keeps your pillows free of stains.

Ingredients

Hot water;
6 lemons.

Instructions
The amount of water depends on the size of the pillow and container you have at home. The idea is to squeeze the lemons into a cup. Then put the pillow in a big bowl and cover it with hot water. Then add the juice to the bowl and let it sit for a few hours. Once the time is up, wash the pillow in the washing machine with an organic soap.

Baking Soda and Vinegar
Baking soda is great at cleaning since it's an astringent. It can lighten and even get rid of stains and odors on pillows. When paired with vinegar, the two ingredients fight bacteria and mites very effectively.

1 tablespoon of tea tree essential oil.
