Small Changes Add Up
If 10,000 LA Biters opt for a rice-filled heat pack instead of a conventional heating pad, we'll save enough electricity to watch 435 hours of Lassie episodes.

What's that, lass(ie)? Got stiff, achy muscles? Help's on the way via heat therapy from Wellness Bags' new Divine Therapy Collection. Just heat up one of these rice-filled wonders – either a short bag or a longer wrap - to treat menstrual cramps and other pains (good for toasting up your bed a little too). Or freeze it for an eco-friendlier ice pack – instead of plastic, these beauts are covered with lux upholstery reclaimed from 15 WeHo textile factories (including makers of fabrics for Hearst Castle and the White House circa Jackie O). And unlike conventional heating pads they don't plug in, saving you energy and worry over the chance of a fire.
