Take 2-3 cloves of garlic, and cut them into small pieces. Put them in 100 ml. of sesame oil or mustard oil (or any other oil if these two are not available). Boil on slow fire for about five minutes. This oil is very good for massaging the area of backache.

Bleeding (External)

Drinking a cup of warm milk with half teaspoonful turmeric powder and a pinch of saffron or alum, added to it is also very good healing drink. It also acts as pain reliever.

Burns
Make a paste of fresh gel of aloe-vera with a pinch of turmeric powder. Adding one 1-2 grams of ghee or coconut oil to this paste makes it more effective. This paste can be applied to the burnt area.

Cold
Take one tablespoon of grated fresh ginger, one teaspoonful of cinnamon powder . Add all these together to one litre water and boil on slow fire for ten minutes till about one fourth (250 ml.) of it is left. This drink can be taken three times in a day. Honey can added as a sweetener.

GEL CANDLES











TRY THIS ALSO ITS VERY CHEAP AND YOU GET CANDLES TO YOUR FLAVOUR


GEL CANDLES

Gel candles are easy to make. They are gaining popularity as they burn longer than wax candles. You can try out different ways to make candles making layers or adding embeddings in glass containers or any other translucent container. Decorate your home with these beautiful candles made on your own.

Materials

* Gel Wax
* Candle Scents (strictly only one or two drops, otherwise it may ignite the whole surface of the gel when you light them)
* Candle dyes
* Wicks
* Wick Base
Glass container
* Embeds (as per your choice)

Method of preparation

* Select the right glass or non-flammable container for your gel candle.
* Stick one end of the wick by a wick base or glue in the container. Suspend the wick vertically in the container by tying it to a split cane or a toothpick.
* Melt the wax in a double boiler or in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. The gel wax may take more time for melting than paraffin wax.
* Add the required colour. Only liquid colour is recommended for optimum effects. Water-base and paste dyes won't mix, and color blocks used for regular wax candles may make the gel cloudy. You will want to add your color and scent fairly quick because the gel will start to set rather fast.
* Pour the wax into the container - down the side to prevent bubbles. The higher the pouring temperature, the fewer bubbles. Sometimes you want bubbles for effect, in which case you should let the gel cool before pouring. Gel does not shrink so it will not require a re-pour.
* Pull the wick up straight and center it.
* Once candle is fully cooled down it will be ready to burn.

Layers

You can create all kinds of interesting looks by pouring different colours of gel on top of each other. Allow each layer to completely solidify before pouring next.

Opaqueness
If you prefer your gel candle to be more dense, add crayons instead of gel candle dye. Another method is to fold the gel repeatedly over as it cools with a butter knife. Transfer the gel to the container when it starts to become stiff to handle.

Wick

Wax coated wicks will be stiff and burn well. If you are using the candle for lighting, it is advisable to use short wick so that the embeds in the candle don't get burned. Take care to trim one forth inch of the wick each time after burning or the residue from the burning wick may ruin your candle by making a pool inside and discolouring it.
