How to Make a Wheat Heating Pad

Written by Christine Miserandino


Ingredients for this project:

Any thick material (this project calls for 18",but you can makerepparttar heating pad any size you want sewing machine or needle and thread Flax seed or wheat Essential oil *optional We have all seen those microwave heating pads selling inrepparttar 139664 stores for big bucks, and I always thought "Boy I wish I knew how to make one" They look so easy to make. So my new friend Wendy gave merepparttar 139665 "directions" and it is easy enough to do and so helpful to those of us who get cold easily or have sore muscles.

It's pretty easy to make a wheat bag heating pad - all you need is some strong material like cotton, canvas or tartan, as long as there's no give in it, so it doesn't stretch! Keep in mind, it needs to be pretty thick so whenrepparttar 139666 wheat is heated (and it gets pretty hot) that you don't burn yourself.

Once you pick your material, cut a square about 18" each side and fold it in half so it's inside out. It will be oblong shape. Stitch down one short side andrepparttar 139667 long side. A sewing machine works best as you need short stitches close together, sorepparttar 139668 wheat doesn't come out. If you stitch by hand go over it again to make surerepparttar 139669 stitches are tight. Next, turn itrepparttar 139670 right way in sorepparttar 139671 seam is onrepparttar 139672 inside. You will need to buy some Flax seed or Wheat. They need to berepparttar 139673 whole kernel. Fillrepparttar 139674 bag about 1/2 way, then stitchrepparttar 139675 one side that is left, sealing it tight.

If you are handy with sewing, and don't mind a little extra work, you might want to dividerepparttar 139676 bag into sections. Maybe in 4- put in 1/4 of your seeds then stitchrepparttar 139677 bag 1/4 ofrepparttar 139678 way up, drop in another 1/4 ofrepparttar 139679 seeds and stitch those in, repeating forrepparttar 139680 rest, so you will have 4 compartments full of seeds, instead of one big one. Then you will have seeds fairly distributed throughout your hand made heating pad! This isn't necessary- but a great tip.

Adding to your level of health is the key.

Here is a continuation ofrepparttar light and darkness metaphor: a bucket of water. The bucket represents you. The water represents your level of health. What happens is that we all come into life with unique buckets. Written onrepparttar 139663 inside of your bucket is a list of allrepparttar 139664 symptoms and diseases that you are predisposed to.

When you were born you had a certain level of water in your bucket. Any symptoms or diseases that are written onrepparttar 139665 inside of your bucket above your water level, arerepparttar 139666 symptoms and disease you express.

Almost every one has symptoms that are aboverepparttar 139667 water level of health: like fatigue, bad eyesight, low energy, allergies, headaches, and other minor symptoms. Many of these symptoms that you express are symptoms that you ignore because you think they are just part of life.

What you and most other people have done up until now is to take a symptom that is written aboverepparttar 139668 water-line inrepparttar 139669 bucket and move it down belowrepparttar 139670 water-line. And magic, no more symptom. The symptom was treated and now it is gone. What happened torepparttar 139671 water level inrepparttar 139672 bucket when you treatedrepparttar 139673 symptom and moved it lower inrepparttar 139674 bucket? That’s right, nothing. Nothing happened to your level of health.

After a whilerepparttar 139675 symptoms get all crowded and nudge around to make more room, and end up pushing some other symptom or disease aboverepparttar 139676 water level on top because allrepparttar 139677 symptoms below need more space. This is why people who treat their symptoms are constantly having new symptoms they need to treat. Whether they treat their symptoms naturally, or with drugs and surgery, they are constantly treating their symptoms, and more keep coming.

What happens in life is that we also put holes in our bucket. Asrepparttar 139678 water leaks out, more and more symptoms and diseases come up aboverepparttar 139679 water level. We express more and more symptoms.

Some common examples of “holes inrepparttar 139680 bucket” are drinking alcohol, eating sugar, taking drugs (both prescription and over-the-counter), taking street drugs, experiencing stress, putting poisonous chemicals like pesticides, herbicides, and other things into our body fromrepparttar 139681 food we eat, smoking, mis-perceptions from faulty belief systems, etc.
