Gift ideas for the self-care loving, health and wellness junkies in your life

Gift ideas for the self-care loving, health and wellness junkies in your life

I know, I know - the last thing the internet needs is another holiday gift guide. I’m in full agreement with you.

But hear me out.

I rarely make product recommendations, in large part due to the fact that I have been burned one too many times by influencer culture and my own insatiable appetite for wellness products.

I also believe that self-care is personal. What I enjoy indulging in or what works well for me, isn’t necessarily a great basis for making recommendations to the masses, you know?

All that said, I believe everyone deserves the gift of wellness - a little something to help them slow down and feel good, or something they can have in their home to stop and admire. And with the holidays coming up, I thought it would be a great time to throw together a list of my favorite knick knacks that I already own or use, or things I’m currently coveting and can’t wait to get my hands on and try out.

A few things I love about this list - 

First, it’s a total mixed bag. Some items are well known and wildly popular, while others you may have never seen or heard of before.

Second, each item is both practical yet indulgent. To me, that’s what self-care is all about.

Finally, everything (well, almost everything) is under $100. Some items are even under $20. Why? Because health, wellness, self-care, or whatever you want to call it, is for everyone.

You can scroll through the gallery to check out my picks, and below that you’ll find links to and prices for each item.

Happy holidays, you guys!
