The Value of Less in Hygiene

Embracing the concept of doing less can be transformative for personal hygiene practices. Dr. James Hamblin discusses how many aspects of our daily cleaning routines, such as frequent showering, may be driven more by cultural norms than by actual health benefits. He proposes that questioning the necessity of products like soap and shampoo can lead to a more personalized approach to hygiene. By prioritizing individual comfort and well-being over societal expectations, people can find simpler routines that work effectively for them.
