Here at Rice & Relaxing we strive to create products that aid in pain relief, and also bring you some comfort in an array of beautiful fabrics.

I know for me, I have experienced many personal benefits from using my rice packs and always find a new way to use them. From cramps, to headache and sinus relief, to warming the bed before I get in.. the uses are endless.

I would love to hear from all of you! Whether you’ve purchased a Rice Pack or received one as a gift, please feel free to let me know how you use your pack and how you’ve benefited from using it.

Ahh how I love this time of year. The leaves are changing, it’s getting cooler, and all the wonderful holiday smells. Once I feel that first fall breeze, out comes the candles of pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and apple. You can’t help but feel that jolt of excitement for the coming months no matter all that goes into it.

Thanksgiving is a time for family, friends, and food! I am thankful for so many things this year, and you all are one of the reasons to give thanks.

As much as this all cheers us, holidays can still be stressful. But thankfully they’re working for us too. The smells of Thanksgiving truly create feelings of nostalgia and the comfortable feeling of home.

One of the main scents of Thanksgiving is Cinnamon, which is a warming and emotionally stimulating scent. Researchers have found that it reduces drowsiness (Great counter attack for the Turkey Coma!), Irritablity, as well as reducing pain related to headaches (Hello Family!). Just kidding!

My favorite smell of Fall is Pumpkin Spice. This is another warm scent and really drives home the feeling of holiday nostalgia.

Now for dessert. Yum! Apple Pie is traditionally the ending of your Thanksgiving meal (besides the late night turkey sandwich). With the affects to calm and soothe, the scent of apple is a tried and true way to end your holiday festivities.

Now don’t forget when you finally get that spot on the couch and prop your feet up, grab that rice pack and simmer.

Lavender is the smell of Relaxation. Its smell has the affect to slow your heart rate, lower your blood pressure, lower your arterial pressure, and decrease muscle tension. Add those benefits to a warm rice pack and you’ve got the recipe for a good nights sleep.

Happy Holidays from Rice & Relaxing!
