I have an old heated blanket (probably a proper fire hazard at this point š¬) and I love a good sock filled with rice
A nice hot cup of tea or soup! It's always a nice way to warm up my insides and make my body quiet down for a little while
I absolutely use a large heating pad! A warm blow from a hair dryer is also my favorite!
I love my xl heating pad. I'm wrapped up in it right now. I love that it can wrap all the way around me and that it can warm my shoulders and my hips. I also love warm baths with Epsom salts.

I have one of the nice infrared heating pads with jade stones on it. It is way more effective for me than any other method of heat

@Mollyisme33 I got it on Amazon! They are more expensive than traditional heating pads that work by heating an internal wire, but they are 1000% worth the cost. I can even control the heat on mine down to the exact degree I want, which is awesome

A sock with rice is good. But change the rice after awhile cause it will smell burnt
@DrakellaEuphrates see I've been meaning to try that!
Hey! I swear by hot water bottles, hot baths and lavender! Hope youāre doing okay š

@MissDreamer yeah in a flare unfortunately at the moment but getting money for Christmas so wanna get some quality of life stuff :P
Honestly, hot water bottle/microwave heat pack things /heat patches (like the open the packet and stick it on things) I donāt own any electronic heat appliances though. I will say I have a acupressure mat that gives me the same sensation of deep heat that I use quite often. Not exactly a heat appliance but it has a warming feel to it
@Zebbie243 I've been meaning to try one as my back is pretty bad atm š
@Mollyisme33 I got mine for Christmas last year and love it! I fell asleep on it once š
Honestly i just keep moving my xl heating pad until i doze off
@Nicole_J I am looking into different ones atm cause all I have is a heated blanket and a microwave thingy
@Mollyisme33 i like the xl heating pad because it is big enough to wrap around an arm or leg or cover my back from neck to my buttock but if multiple place hurt it sucks
