Home Lifestyle Gift Guide: Self Care & Wellness Warriors

Gift Guide: Self Care & Wellness Warriors

Posted:11/21/18
Updated:11/26/18

A gift guide for to help others add more wellness and self care practices into their lives.

 

How we take care of ourselves looks different on everyone, but I wanted to give you some ideas for ways you can encourage others to add more wellness and self care into their daily, weekly and monthly routines. From just cozying up in a robe, treating someone to a facial, or sitting down to journal for five minutes each day…

Encourage your giftee to find more wellness in their life and find joy in the little things.

1. Gift a Facial – $100 +

Honestly, as indulgent as they are made out to be, facials are amazing and would make the best gift! I got my first facial this year and it totally feels like a splurge from what I am used to, but is just so nice. We need to remember taking care of ourselves first, allows us to show up and take care of the ones we love. “Self care is not selfish.”

For my local Michigan friends, here are two places to consider

  • Lansing – Michigan Center for Functional Medicine 
  • Grand Rapids – Grand Rapids Natural Health

I’ve been to both and they use organic, vegan skincare from KPS Essentials.

2. Matcha + Bamboo Whisk Bowl Set – $26.55 + $22.99

If you have matcha lovers in your life, this gift is a must.

3. Cozy Robe – $99.00

Because who doesn’t want a new cozy robe to wrap themselves in after their epsom salt bath and face mask time?

4. Girl Wash Your Face – $13.94

By Rachel Hollis

5. Franklin & Whitman Travel Kit – $59.95

I absolutely love Frank & Whit products. Not only are their products great, but the people behind the company are awesome humans.

6. You Are A Badass Calendar  – $10.60

Always nice to have little reminders each day. And if you haven’t read the book, another great read/gift. 

7. KPS Essentials Lip Treatment – $37.00

As noted, KPS Essentials is an organic vegan skincare line and they have really amazing, high quality products. You can read their story here but anything from their line is going to be a lovely gift. Their lip treatment is pretty amazing.

8. Pretty Notebooks & Journals – $10 +

  • Bando 
  • The Five Minute Journal
  • Bullet Journal
  • don’t forget pretty pens

9. Yoga Mat – $66.00

Along with a yoga mat, maybe a mini membership to a local yoga studio too!

The yoga mat linked is made from biodegradable, non-Amazon harvested, natural Tree rubber with non-toxic foaming agents and non-ado dyes and contains no PVC or harmful plasticizers

10. Heated Plush Blanket  – $48.99

Who doesn’t need one of these this time of year? Unless you live in the South, dessert or West Coast I suppose. But still, so cozy. 

11. Epsom Bath Salts

If you have trouble sleeping, epsom salt baths personally help me so much! These would be great in a little “self care” gift basket bundle.

12. MantraBand Bracelets – $25 +

Tons of sayings on these delicate, wear with anything bracelets. From “You Are Enough” to “Hakuna Matata” and “Forever Friends” – so many to choose from!

 

 

Are you taking more care of yourself, and encouraging others to do the same this year?
