Home Tips for Utilizing Waste Materials for Handicrafts :
Materials: 2 disposable paper cups, wrapping paper, transparent tape, paper cutter, scissors, glue stick, white glue Production process:
2. Homemade solar cooker
Take the concave reflector bowl from a large flashlight and carve a cylinder about 4 cm long out of hard foam or wood, with a diameter that will fit snugly into the circular hole in the reflector bowl. Drill a thin horizontal hole in one end of the cylinder and thread a wire with a diameter equal to the hole through it. Then, bend the wire protruding from the cylinder at a 90-degree angle, leaving 5 cm between the ends. Insert the cylinder into the circular hole in the reflector bowl and insert the wire ends into a foam or wooden base. Sharpen the ends of a thin bamboo skewer and insert one end into the cylinder in the center of the reflector bowl. Stick a small piece of potato into the other end. Place the device in the sun, with the reflector bowl facing the sun. Then, carefully adjust the length of the skewer so that the potato is at the focal point of the light. It won't be long before the potato is roasted by the sun's rays and emits a fragrant aroma.
3. Homemade cockroach trap
Take a 220 x 150 mm piece of cardboard. The most important part of a trap is the capture surface. Cut a piece of plastic film to the same size as the bottom of the box, apply adhesive, and place it on the bottom. The key to catching cockroaches lies in the adhesive. The adhesive has two functions: first, to lure the cockroaches into the box, and second, to stick them to the capture surface. To prepare the attractant: Mix 40% meat powder, 50% flour, and 10% bean cake, totaling about 20 grams. Mix well and set aside. The adhesive is 20 grams of rosin and 10 grams of rapeseed oil. Heat until it forms a gel. Then, mix the attractant and adhesive thoroughly to create the adhesive. Apply the prepared paste evenly to the capture surface lined with plastic film. Fold it inward along the dotted line you drew, and finally, insert tongue b into notch a. The non-drying nature of the rosin and rapeseed oil mixture keeps the bait sticky for up to a week. Place the trap box where cockroaches are most likely to be found. Because the box is dark and contains bait that cockroaches like, cockroaches will crawl into the box to compete for the bait and get caught. Once it's full, you can either flatten the box and discard it, or peel off the plastic film and replace it with the one coated with bait, allowing the box to be reused. By increasing the size of the trap box, slightly adjusting the adhesive composition, and thickening the coating, you can create a paper mousetrap.
4. Homemade wall-mounted flower basket
Materials and Tools: Two Sprite bottles, glue, a carving knife, and scissors. Instructions: 1. Remove the green bottom sleeve from a Sprite bottle and cut it into a lotus shape. Turn it upside down and glue it to the bottle body to form a base. 2. Cut a 2cm wide green ring from the green bottom sleeve and place it back on the bottle body. 3. Remove the bottle neck and cut a 13cm long, 8cm wide wide strip and several 3cm wide narrow strips from the bottle. 4. Use a carving knife to carve a pattern on the 3cm narrow strips (as shown in Figure 3). Then, fold these strips outward and insert them from the bottom up into the green rings. 5. Take another bottle and, using the bottle body, use scissors to cut six 17cm long capsules. 6. Nail the flower basket to the wall and insert the leaves and flowers. Your wall-mounted flower basket is now ready.
5. Make a vacuum cleaner that doesn’t require electricity by hand using waste
This is a simple, no-electric mini vacuum cleaner. It's designed to remove dander and dust from sheets and sofas. It's a practical little project with easy-to-find materials, simple to make, and convenient to use. I. Materials and Tools: An old soap box (a sturdy rectangular plastic box with a lid or a small wooden box will also work). An oblong bottle scrubber. Two old plastic bottle inner caps (no larger than the brush's diameter) or two old fluorescent lamp housings. A drill, a carving knife, pliers, and a small screwdriver. II. Instructions: Use a carving knife to carve a rectangular hole in the center of the bottom of an old soap box, measuring the length and width of the brush. Leave a 4.5cm (slightly shorter) section of the brush's bristles. Leave 1cm of wire at each end and trim off the excess. Place the brush in the soap box, bend the ends, and secure it. Make sure the brush can rotate flexibly, with some of the bristles sticking out of the bottom of the box. Finally, close the lid of the box. This completes your simple, non-electric vacuum cleaner. 3. Usage: (1) Place the box flat on the bed sheet or sofa and rub it back and forth. Rub the dirty areas several times. (2) After brushing, turn the box over and knock it a few times. Then, remove the bottom of the box. The dirt will remain inside the lid. This way, you won't have to dust the room when you dust the bed sheet or brush the sofa. You can keep the room and the floor clean. This is based on the principle learned in general knowledge class: friction generates static electricity, and static electricity can attract small objects.
6. Skillful hands mobilize waste collection
1. Use shoe boxes to make storage boxes. Find a sturdy shoe box and stick your favorite posters or beautiful cotton fabric on it, or simply use watercolor pens to doodle on it. Use it to store magazines or small items. It is very practical.
2. DIY a toy box. When children have too many toys piled up in their rooms, it creates a mess. That's when discarded cardboard boxes from the balcony come in handy. Similar to how you'd make a storage box, cover the box with brightly colored, cartoon-themed paper. This is sure to please children. Placing it in the room specifically for children's toys will also help them develop good tidying habits. A fruit basket can be used to store plush toys, and hanging it on the wall saves space.
3. Find a home for your underwear. Usually, after drinking milk, the packaging box is thrown into the trash can. In fact, they can still be used in many ways. You can use them to create a "home" for your underwear.
Small items like underwear should be placed in a dedicated area, clean and easy to take out. Milk cartons are the perfect place to do this. Cut off the top and bottom seals of Tetra Pak milk cartons, wash them, roll them into tubes, and arrange them neatly in a large box. Underwear, socks, ties, and belts can all be rolled up and placed inside the milk cartons.
7. DIY underwear storage box that turns trash into treasure
Required materials: 9 yogurt boxes as shown in the picture (others include: scissors, double-sided tape, beautiful wrapping paper, strong thread or thin copper wire, paper cutter) 1. Cut the milk box 2. Stick the boxes together 3. Wrap with wrapping paper 4. Make the lid~~ Use the thick cardboard that can be used as a document cover. If you don’t have cardboard for shirt boxes at home, you can also use it. Draw the size on the paper according to the size of the box, and then leave a width of 1/3 of the box height for the eaves. After cutting and sticking, wrap it with the same wrapping paper 5. Make the handle of the lid. Use the remaining cardboard you made for the lid to cut into the width of the handle you want, and then roll it into a roll according to the width~~ If you want a small roll, put a thin wire in the middle and pass it through after rolling it; if you don’t have wire, you can use a stronger rope, but remember that if you use a rope, it is best to roll the rope directly inside, leaving appropriate length at both ends to fix the handle on the lid.
8. Clever use of milk cartons
Watertight, disposable milk cartons are a great way to recycle them. You can use them for household tasks. Treat them like empty boxes, cut them with scissors, and tape them up.

Organize your makeup tools together. Trim a milk carton to an appropriate height and cover it with wrapping paper to create a convenient and practical makeup organizer. If you want to put a partition in the middle of the box, you can also use a milk carton.

Place small kitchen items upright. For small items like chopsticks and mixing utensils, just stick a few milk cartons together with double-sided tape. You can place them in a convenient location and even if you throw them away after use, there will be no waste.

Small items in the living room can be stored in boxes for small items such as TV remote controls, mobile phones, and glasses. You can also make boxes from milk cartons and connect them with double-sided tape. If you add handles, it will be more convenient to organize and move.

Cut off the milk carton to separate the rice and vegetables in the bento. Wrap the cut portion of the milk carton in aluminum foil to create a sturdy divider.

Clean the milk carton and cut it into pieces according to the size of the small box in the refrigerator. Use it as a pad to prevent the refrigerator from getting dirty. You can also use it under seasoning bottles and other bottles.
9. Home Tips - Use Bottle Caps
Nail a few small bottle caps on a small wooden board to make a small iron brush. You can use it to scrape off paper stuck on the wall and dirt on the soles of shoes. It has a wide range of uses.
Place bottle caps in the soap dish to prevent the soap from coming into contact with the water at the bottom of the dish, which also saves soap.
Make a washboard. Gather discarded medicine bottle caps (such as the rubber caps from penicillin bottles) and nail them in rows on a rectangular wooden board in a crisscross pattern (make sure the nails are in the recesses of the caps). This creates a very practical washboard. Because the rubber caps are flexible, they minimize wear and tear on clothes.
Protect chair legs. Moving a chair across the floor often creates a jarring sound. To prevent this, place a bottle cap (like the rubber cap on a penicillin bottle) on the chair leg to act as a cushion. This will reduce the jarring sound and protect the leg.
Protect the front of the house. Use glue to fix the discarded rubber cover to the back of the door to prevent the door from colliding when opening and closing, thus protecting the front of the house.
Drain plunger. After prolonged use, the wooden handle of a drain plunger can become detached from the rubber. In this case, you can find a wine bottle cap, screw it to the end of the handle, and then cover it with a rubber cup to prevent the handle from coming off.
Relieve itching. If mosquito bites in the summer are incredibly itchy, place the thermos cap on the bite and rub it for 2-3 seconds, then remove it. Repeat this 2-3 times. The intense itching will immediately subside, and the area will not develop red spots. It's best to use the cap from a thermos bottle with water around 90°C.
To grow flowers, place a bottle cap over the water outlet of the flowerpot to allow water to flow while preventing soil from escaping.

To make these, first disassemble the old canopy along the seams into eight small pieces. Wash, dry, and iron them. Then, reassemble six of the pieces upside down to form a rectangular shape. Two of the pieces will serve as handles or shoulder straps. The resulting pieces can be combined to create a variety of nylon handbag designs, tailored to your preferences and the canopy's design. Finally, attach the handles or shoulder straps and decorate with various fasteners.
Utilization of old records
Used plastic records can be softened in the oven and then gently shaped into a lotus leaf by hand to create a unique fruit plate. They can also be shaped into any desired pattern to hold items or as a decorative ornament, each with its own unique character.

Waste or low-quality tapes can damage the heads and should not be used on machines. However, they can be used to decorate light-colored modular furniture. Application Instructions: ① When the last coat of paint on modular furniture is almost dry, straighten the waste tape and apply it. ② After the furniture is painted, apply white glue to the matte side of the tape, then straighten it and apply it to the modular furniture.

2. Eating tomatoes raw is beneficial to wound healing. Tomatoes are rich in natural antioxidant vitamin C. Vitamin C can promote the biosynthesis of collagen, facilitate faster healing of tissue wounds, and enhance the body's ability to resist stress and immunity to the external environment. However, they must be eaten raw because vitamin C is extremely unstable and easily oxidized and decomposed during processing.
Which acupoints can be massaged for hair growth? Everyone probably knows that, aside from hair loss caused by illness, natural hair loss is often caused by poor blood circulation in the head. Therefore, moderate scalp massage can improve blood circulation in the head, thereby reducing hair loss. While massaging acupoints on the head , especially the Baihui acupoint, can indeed prevent hair graying and loss, there's a point on the soles of the feet that shouldn't be forgotten. It's just as effective as the Baihui acupoint in preventing premature graying and hair loss: the Yongquan acupoint.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), hair is known as "the kidney's sustenance," meaning it's nourished by the kidneys. Sufficient kidney essence results in lustrous, black hair that resists shedding, split ends, and dandruff. However, kidney deficiency and lack of essence deplete the nutrients needed for melanin production and growth, leading to graying and hair loss. The Yongquan acupoint, located on the sole of the foot, is a point on the kidney meridian. Traditional Chinese Medicine describes it as the "source of water," tonifying the kidneys and calming the mind. Consistently massaging the Yongquan acupoint will effectively maintain hair.
Tongue exercises can help reduce snoring: Doing 30 minutes of tongue and face exercises daily can reduce moderate obstructive sleep apnea. These exercises include brushing your tongue with a toothbrush and placing the tip of your tongue on your soft palate.

Cut a piece of umbrella cloth with a diameter of about 2 cm in the center of the old umbrella cloth, and then use a diagonal cloth strip to roll an edge on the cut. In this way, the hanger cover is made.

2. Homemade solar cooker
Take the concave reflector bowl from a large flashlight and carve a cylinder about 4 cm long out of hard foam or wood, with a diameter that will fit snugly into the circular hole in the reflector bowl. Drill a thin horizontal hole in one end of the cylinder and thread a wire with a diameter equal to the hole through it. Then, bend the wire protruding from the cylinder at a 90-degree angle, leaving 5 cm between the ends. Insert the cylinder into the circular hole in the reflector bowl and insert the wire ends into a foam or wooden base. Sharpen the ends of a thin bamboo skewer and insert one end into the cylinder in the center of the reflector bowl. Stick a small piece of potato into the other end. Place the device in the sun, with the reflector bowl facing the sun. Then, carefully adjust the length of the skewer so that the potato is at the focal point of the light. It won't be long before the potato is roasted by the sun's rays and emits a fragrant aroma.
3. Homemade cockroach trap
Take a 220 x 150 mm piece of cardboard. The most important part of a trap is the capture surface. Cut a piece of plastic film to the same size as the bottom of the box, apply adhesive, and place it on the bottom. The key to catching cockroaches lies in the adhesive. The adhesive has two functions: first, to lure the cockroaches into the box, and second, to stick them to the capture surface. To prepare the attractant: Mix 40% meat powder, 50% flour, and 10% bean cake, totaling about 20 grams. Mix well and set aside. The adhesive is 20 grams of rosin and 10 grams of rapeseed oil. Heat until it forms a gel. Then, mix the attractant and adhesive thoroughly to create the adhesive. Apply the prepared paste evenly to the capture surface lined with plastic film. Fold it inward along the dotted line you drew, and finally, insert tongue b into notch a. The non-drying nature of the rosin and rapeseed oil mixture keeps the bait sticky for up to a week. Place the trap box where cockroaches are most likely to be found. Because the box is dark and contains bait that cockroaches like, cockroaches will crawl into the box to compete for the bait and get caught. Once it's full, you can either flatten the box and discard it, or peel off the plastic film and replace it with the one coated with bait, allowing the box to be reused. By increasing the size of the trap box, slightly adjusting the adhesive composition, and thickening the coating, you can create a paper mousetrap.
4. Homemade wall-mounted flower basket
Materials and Tools: Two Sprite bottles, glue, a carving knife, and scissors. Instructions: 1. Remove the green bottom sleeve from a Sprite bottle and cut it into a lotus shape. Turn it upside down and glue it to the bottle body to form a base. 2. Cut a 2cm wide green ring from the green bottom sleeve and place it back on the bottle body. 3. Remove the bottle neck and cut a 13cm long, 8cm wide wide strip and several 3cm wide narrow strips from the bottle. 4. Use a carving knife to carve a pattern on the 3cm narrow strips (as shown in Figure 3). Then, fold these strips outward and insert them from the bottom up into the green rings. 5. Take another bottle and, using the bottle body, use scissors to cut six 17cm long capsules. 6. Nail the flower basket to the wall and insert the leaves and flowers. Your wall-mounted flower basket is now ready.
5. Make a vacuum cleaner that doesn’t require electricity by hand using waste
This is a simple, no-electric mini vacuum cleaner. It's designed to remove dander and dust from sheets and sofas. It's a practical little project with easy-to-find materials, simple to make, and convenient to use. I. Materials and Tools: An old soap box (a sturdy rectangular plastic box with a lid or a small wooden box will also work). An oblong bottle scrubber. Two old plastic bottle inner caps (no larger than the brush's diameter) or two old fluorescent lamp housings. A drill, a carving knife, pliers, and a small screwdriver. II. Instructions: Use a carving knife to carve a rectangular hole in the center of the bottom of an old soap box, measuring the length and width of the brush. Leave a 4.5cm (slightly shorter) section of the brush's bristles. Leave 1cm of wire at each end and trim off the excess. Place the brush in the soap box, bend the ends, and secure it. Make sure the brush can rotate flexibly, with some of the bristles sticking out of the bottom of the box. Finally, close the lid of the box. This completes your simple, non-electric vacuum cleaner. 3. Usage: (1) Place the box flat on the bed sheet or sofa and rub it back and forth. Rub the dirty areas several times. (2) After brushing, turn the box over and knock it a few times. Then, remove the bottom of the box. The dirt will remain inside the lid. This way, you won't have to dust the room when you dust the bed sheet or brush the sofa. You can keep the room and the floor clean. This is based on the principle learned in general knowledge class: friction generates static electricity, and static electricity can attract small objects.
6. Skillful hands mobilize waste collection
1. Use shoe boxes to make storage boxes. Find a sturdy shoe box and stick your favorite posters or beautiful cotton fabric on it, or simply use watercolor pens to doodle on it. Use it to store magazines or small items. It is very practical.
2. DIY a toy box. When children have too many toys piled up in their rooms, it creates a mess. That's when discarded cardboard boxes from the balcony come in handy. Similar to how you'd make a storage box, cover the box with brightly colored, cartoon-themed paper. This is sure to please children. Placing it in the room specifically for children's toys will also help them develop good tidying habits. A fruit basket can be used to store plush toys, and hanging it on the wall saves space.
3. Find a home for your underwear. Usually, after drinking milk, the packaging box is thrown into the trash can. In fact, they can still be used in many ways. You can use them to create a "home" for your underwear.
Small items like underwear should be placed in a dedicated area, clean and easy to take out. Milk cartons are the perfect place to do this. Cut off the top and bottom seals of Tetra Pak milk cartons, wash them, roll them into tubes, and arrange them neatly in a large box. Underwear, socks, ties, and belts can all be rolled up and placed inside the milk cartons.
7. DIY underwear storage box that turns trash into treasure
Required materials: 9 yogurt boxes as shown in the picture (others include: scissors, double-sided tape, beautiful wrapping paper, strong thread or thin copper wire, paper cutter) 1. Cut the milk box 2. Stick the boxes together 3. Wrap with wrapping paper 4. Make the lid~~ Use the thick cardboard that can be used as a document cover. If you don’t have cardboard for shirt boxes at home, you can also use it. Draw the size on the paper according to the size of the box, and then leave a width of 1/3 of the box height for the eaves. After cutting and sticking, wrap it with the same wrapping paper 5. Make the handle of the lid. Use the remaining cardboard you made for the lid to cut into the width of the handle you want, and then roll it into a roll according to the width~~ If you want a small roll, put a thin wire in the middle and pass it through after rolling it; if you don’t have wire, you can use a stronger rope, but remember that if you use a rope, it is best to roll the rope directly inside, leaving appropriate length at both ends to fix the handle on the lid.
8. Clever use of milk cartons
Watertight, disposable milk cartons are a great way to recycle them. You can use them for household tasks. Treat them like empty boxes, cut them with scissors, and tape them up.
Organize your makeup tools together. Trim a milk carton to an appropriate height and cover it with wrapping paper to create a convenient and practical makeup organizer. If you want to put a partition in the middle of the box, you can also use a milk carton.
Place small kitchen items upright. For small items like chopsticks and mixing utensils, just stick a few milk cartons together with double-sided tape. You can place them in a convenient location and even if you throw them away after use, there will be no waste.
Small items in the living room can be stored in boxes for small items such as TV remote controls, mobile phones, and glasses. You can also make boxes from milk cartons and connect them with double-sided tape. If you add handles, it will be more convenient to organize and move.
Cut off the milk carton to separate the rice and vegetables in the bento. Wrap the cut portion of the milk carton in aluminum foil to create a sturdy divider.
Clean the milk carton and cut it into pieces according to the size of the small box in the refrigerator. Use it as a pad to prevent the refrigerator from getting dirty. You can also use it under seasoning bottles and other bottles.
9. Home Tips - Use Bottle Caps
Nail a few small bottle caps on a small wooden board to make a small iron brush. You can use it to scrape off paper stuck on the wall and dirt on the soles of shoes. It has a wide range of uses.
Place bottle caps in the soap dish to prevent the soap from coming into contact with the water at the bottom of the dish, which also saves soap.
Make a washboard. Gather discarded medicine bottle caps (such as the rubber caps from penicillin bottles) and nail them in rows on a rectangular wooden board in a crisscross pattern (make sure the nails are in the recesses of the caps). This creates a very practical washboard. Because the rubber caps are flexible, they minimize wear and tear on clothes.
Protect chair legs. Moving a chair across the floor often creates a jarring sound. To prevent this, place a bottle cap (like the rubber cap on a penicillin bottle) on the chair leg to act as a cushion. This will reduce the jarring sound and protect the leg.
Protect the front of the house. Use glue to fix the discarded rubber cover to the back of the door to prevent the door from colliding when opening and closing, thus protecting the front of the house.
Drain plunger. After prolonged use, the wooden handle of a drain plunger can become detached from the rubber. In this case, you can find a wine bottle cap, screw it to the end of the handle, and then cover it with a rubber cup to prevent the handle from coming off.
Relieve itching. If mosquito bites in the summer are incredibly itchy, place the thermos cap on the bite and rub it for 2-3 seconds, then remove it. Repeat this 2-3 times. The intense itching will immediately subside, and the area will not develop red spots. It's best to use the cap from a thermos bottle with water around 90°C.
To grow flowers, place a bottle cap over the water outlet of the flowerpot to allow water to flow while preventing soil from escaping.
10. More good ideas for household waste utilization:
Chewing gum residue stuck to shoes
When your shoes are coming unglued, you can spit out the chewing gum residue from your mouth that has been squeezed dry of sugar, stuff it into the open gap of the shoe upper, and then press it hard a few times. The heel and upper will then stick tightly together, and the bonding strength is even better than that of ordinary glue.

14. Utilization of old umbrella canopies
Old nylon umbrellas that are beyond repair often have very durable canopies. Therefore, the canopies can be disassembled and repurposed into nylon handbags of various sizes and designs. To make these, first disassemble the old canopy along the seams into eight small pieces. Wash, dry, and iron them. Then, reassemble six of the pieces upside down to form a rectangular shape. Two of the pieces will serve as handles or shoulder straps. The resulting pieces can be combined to create a variety of nylon handbag designs, tailored to your preferences and the canopy's design. Finally, attach the handles or shoulder straps and decorate with various fasteners.
Utilization of old records
Used plastic records can be softened in the oven and then gently shaped into a lotus leaf by hand to create a unique fruit plate. They can also be shaped into any desired pattern to hold items or as a decorative ornament, each with its own unique character.
15. Use old tapes for good results
Waste or low-quality tapes can damage the heads and should not be used on machines. However, they can be used to decorate light-colored modular furniture. Application Instructions: ① When the last coat of paint on modular furniture is almost dry, straighten the waste tape and apply it. ② After the furniture is painted, apply white glue to the matte side of the tape, then straighten it and apply it to the modular furniture.

45. It would be very convenient to put a bag in the car.
Paper Cup Vase : 1. Carefully cut out the bottom of a disposable paper cup with a paper cutter. 2. Cut the wrapping paper into a fan-shaped shape the size of the cup (leave a margin approximately 1 cm larger than the cup's circumference). 3. Use clear tape to secure the two cups together. 4. Use a glue stick to coat the wrapping paper and wrap the top and bottom cups separately. Apply white glue to the ribbon and glue it to the joint of the two cups. Attach the bow and decorative flower. Notes: 1. Disposable paper cups are common in homes and offices, and some are even thrown away without being touched by guests. It's a shame! After drying, they can be made into a decorative vase like this. 2. When cutting the fan-shaped wrapping paper, cut a paper cup for reference. This will ensure a more accurate cut and make the process easier. 3. It's recommended to use a glue stick when attaching the wrapping paper, as this will ensure a smoother and more secure finish.

2. Eating tomatoes raw is beneficial to wound healing. Tomatoes are rich in natural antioxidant vitamin C. Vitamin C can promote the biosynthesis of collagen, facilitate faster healing of tissue wounds, and enhance the body's ability to resist stress and immunity to the external environment. However, they must be eaten raw because vitamin C is extremely unstable and easily oxidized and decomposed during processing.
Which acupoints can be massaged for hair growth? Everyone probably knows that, aside from hair loss caused by illness, natural hair loss is often caused by poor blood circulation in the head. Therefore, moderate scalp massage can improve blood circulation in the head, thereby reducing hair loss. While massaging acupoints on the head , especially the Baihui acupoint, can indeed prevent hair graying and loss, there's a point on the soles of the feet that shouldn't be forgotten. It's just as effective as the Baihui acupoint in preventing premature graying and hair loss: the Yongquan acupoint.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), hair is known as "the kidney's sustenance," meaning it's nourished by the kidneys. Sufficient kidney essence results in lustrous, black hair that resists shedding, split ends, and dandruff. However, kidney deficiency and lack of essence deplete the nutrients needed for melanin production and growth, leading to graying and hair loss. The Yongquan acupoint, located on the sole of the foot, is a point on the kidney meridian. Traditional Chinese Medicine describes it as the "source of water," tonifying the kidneys and calming the mind. Consistently massaging the Yongquan acupoint will effectively maintain hair.
Tongue exercises can help reduce snoring: Doing 30 minutes of tongue and face exercises daily can reduce moderate obstructive sleep apnea. These exercises include brushing your tongue with a toothbrush and placing the tip of your tongue on your soft palate.
