Clutter is Bad For Your Physical and Mental Health

Does clutter have you ready to pull your hair out?

Are all those receipts and stacks of papers lying around your home or office making it difficult to concentrate?

If so, the S8X1103 Pandigital Wand Scanner could be just what the doctor ordered, and we’ll be taking a closer look at everything this little clutter killer has to offer.

Before we get into why the Pandigital Wand Scanner can help make your life easier, let’s first discuss why clutter is so bad for you.

Many doctors feel that clutter is not only bad for your physical health, but your mental health as well.  First the physical.  The more items you have, even things as simple as stacks of paper, the more dust will collect.  How can dust affect you?  Well, if you suffer from allergies or asthma, then you know the answer.  

What about your mental health?  Clutter can affect it negatively by simply overwhelming your brain.  Just think of the last time you looked at a stack of papers on your desk.  You can see the stack, but it’s almost as if your brain does not process what you are looking at.  As if it gets overloaded with too much information at once.  If you’re a particularly busy person or live in a home with a lot of kids, this type of clutter just adds to the stress.

So, with all of that out of the way, how can the Pandigital Wand Scanner help cut down on clutter?  It’s simple.  By allowing you to scan almost anything you can think of so you can get rid of their “physical” form, or at least get it out of the way!  Here are some examples of things taking up space around your house or office that can be scanned with the S8X1103: family photos, receipts, important documents, recipes, notes, news clippings, old ticket stubs, and the list goes on, as long as it’s 8 ½ x 14 or under.  All of these items and more can be scanned directly to a computer for added storage, to a microSD card, or to other devices via Wi-Fi (this will be touched on later too).

Besides its functionality, perhaps the best feature of the Pandigital Wand Scanner is its easy setup.  Let’s be real here.  Not everyone is a technical genius, and not everyone wants to go through a ton of mumbo jumbo just to get a device working.  Luckily, that is definitely not the case here.  To get started, all you have to do is insert the rechargeable battery and charge it either via a USB to computer connection or by placing the scanner in its dock and connecting the power.  Once it’s all charged, you are good to go.

Navigating the menus via the S8X1103’s interface is not too complicated, and after a few rounds of usage, you’ll be able to edit options with ease on the fly.  You can scan objects to either a JPG or PDF format, but there are other more advanced scanning options at your disposal as well.  For example, you can choose between color or black and white, and you can also adjust the resolution to your liking.

Now that you know the physical and mental health benefits that scanning your documents can help provide lets take a deeper look at some of the functionality of this handy and helpful device.
