Life Hack Of The Day: Dry Cleaning Edition

No iron on hand? Hang your clothes in the bathroom while you shower to smooth out pesky wrinkles.

Up Your Health Game

We’re So Jaded

If you’ve been on Insta lately, you’ve seen jade rollers (which look like paint rollers…but with jade). While influencers say that using the roller on their faces leaves their skin glowing, it’s not a miracle worker. It won’t necessarily help your skin absorb serums quicker, but the massage is nice, at the very least. [Swirled]

Memory, All Alone In The Moonlight…

It’s no coincidence that you can look back on those college years with rose-colored glasses. According to research, you’re more likely to recall positive memories than the negative ones, especially if you listen to upbeat music while you reminisce. [Swirled]

Pollen My Leg

Eating local honey, which has active pollen, seems like it should help alleviate your allergies, right? Not necessarily. Participants in a study were split into two groups, one consuming honey and the other corn syrup. The result? Everyone felt the same, so jury’s still out! [Popsci]

Live Like A Boss

Boss Up

Millennial bosses are leading differently than older generations in many innovative and exciting ways. Aside from being tech-obsessed, they’re purpose-driven, partial to messaging versus face-to-face and they become leaders to empower others. [Swirled]

Play Ball

Sitting at a desk for eight hours every day can lead to serious health issues. Thankfully, researchers created the Powerball Supernova Pro to help combat any aches. Apparently, three minutes of use per day can help strengthen your fingers, hands, wrists, arms and shoulders. [Mashable]

Get On The Map

Google announced the latest version of Maps, which will be launching later this year. Not only will you use the app to get to where you’re going, but a new explore feature allows you to tour neighborhoods, activities and vendors for a more immersive experience. [Business Insider]

Savor Each Bite

Donut Tempt Us

Donut lovers, rejoice! Entenmann’s is looking for a Chief Donut Officer. If you snag the role, you’ll get $5k, some swag and a year’s supply of donuts. Don’t worry — the role doesn’t entail any responsibilities. Seriously. Applications are open through June 30. [Swirled]

Drone Delivery

If you’re a fan of Uber Eats, you’ll freak over the company’s new initiative to design food delivery drones. Having gotten the seal of approval from the federal government, Uber is preparing to test the new innovation in San Diego. [Swirled]

Recipe Of The Day

It’s time to break out those spring pasta recipes! This asparagus, goat cheese and lemon pasta dish requires only six ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to make. [Smitten Kitchen]

Pack Your Bags

Don’t Be So Hostel

Hostels sometimes get a bad rep for feeling like…well, hostels. You’ll be happy to know that you can visit a number of international hostels for just $10 and feel like you’re in a boutique hotel the whole time. The Alegrias Hostel Bogota in Colombia offers hammocks, salsa classes and easy access to Bogota. Score! [Swirled]

Moroccan My World

Wanderlusters who pick their next destinations via Instagram may know Chefchaouen, Morocco as the village painted a vivid blue. Though the hues are gorgeous, the town is known for much more, including killer views of the Rif Mountains and friendly locals. [Swirled]

Peace, Dude

Feeling a little tired of the corporate world? The Mountain Light Sanctuary, located just 35 miles north of Asheville, North Carolina, offers a donation-based respite with free classes and readings, uninterrupted time outdoors and even a search for interdimensional beings. Hippies welcome. [Thrillistl]
