What we're gifting (and getting) this year!

The holidays are upon us, and we're excited to share some of our favorite ideas and products for you to bless the ones you love with wellness this season.

While a meaningful holiday season certainly doesn't depend on consumerism, if you do take part in the tradition of exchanging presents, this curated selection will check off everyone on your list with meaningful and trusted products.

Most of these brands are also running Black Friday discounts right now!

 

For Everyone

Bedding: Quince sheet set the blue gingham is so precious. Made with organic cotton and currently on sale!

Wool pillows: Woolshire We've been slowly upgrading our bedding to remove the synthetics, flame retardants, and chemicals traditionally used, in order to create a better nights rest. So these are on our own wish list this year! Wool is naturally moisture wicking and temperature regulating. 

Comfy sets: Mate the Label Eyeing the organic waffle cardigan. Cute! 

Candles: Candle Stork Obviously biased here because ours are the best truly non-toxic candles out there. Shop the gorgeous new Winter Collection for festive fragrance-free scents!

Face masks: Valor Skincare nourishing face masks with clean ingredients. Loving this one!

Cookbook: Healthier Home Cook The author, Shawna, has fantastic recipes and is super knowledgeable about holistic living. She's a great follow on Instagram too! @alittlelesstoxic 

Cutting board: Walnut The perfect gift for the home chef still using a plastic cutting board! Swap it out for this beautiful walnut cutting board and help them consume fewer microplastics.

Cast iron set: 4 in 1 Set Cast iron is the best way to cook almost everything. A good set like this will last decades when maintained, and won't leach teflon or any other BS into meals.

Stainless steel pot: Saucepan Stainless steel pot for the things you shouldn't cook in the cast iron. A healthy kitchen only needs: wood utensils, cast iron pans, stainless steel pot, and glass containers! 

Popcorn maker: Whirley-pop Those microwavable bags of popcorn are literal poison. We received this as a housewarming gift when my husband and I moved in together--along with popcorn kernels and different seasoning salts, and it's still one of my favorite gifts. We use it all the time!

CSA: Gift someone a subscription for local produce, flowers, meat, etc. from a local farm share! 

Glass water bottle: 46 oz glass The perfect bottle to help reach your daily water intake goal without any plastic leaching in!

Activewear: Mate the Label No one wants PFA's, (AKA forever chemicals) leaching into their privates when they sweat. These leggings and sports bras last for years and come in some really cute colors.

Pickleball set: GoSports We love a gift that gets us moving together!

Deodorant: Primally Pure We recommend this deodorant to everyone--the tallow makes it great for sensitive skin and it's the only clean deo that actually works! The Holiday scent is wonderful.

Protein powder: Flav City The best clean protein; tons of flavors and delicious!

Water filter: Filtered water pitcher Literally everyone needs to be filtering their water. This is a great gift to support a loved ones wellbeing. 

Experience: Whether it's a cooking class, pottery hour, concert, or camping trip, gifting an experience can make for the best memories together and help us connect through quality time. These can be some of the best gifts when tailored to the person!

Kindle case: Klevercase Customizable kindle cover to inspire the reader in your life. We consider reading to be a part of wellness, and this is the perfect way to support your bookworm when you're not sure which books they might like, (or what they've already read!). 

 

 

For the Guys

Boxer briefs: PACT We all know he needs the once a year restock. This brand uses organic cotton for a good price.

Beard oil: Primally Pure Great scent, (smells like a whiskey old fashioned!) and uses nourishing oils to stimulate growth, tame unruly hairs, and moisturize the skin. 

Men's skincare: Jack Henry Men deserve nontoxic skincare too. Great body wash and face cleanser with masculine scents he'll love.

French press: stainless steel For the coffee lovers.

Tennis shoes: VIVO Barefoot  These grounding "barefoot" shoes promote the foot's natural strength and movement.

Seasoning salts: Real Salt This gift set is perfect for the at home chef. (Would also work great with the popcorn maker mentioned above!)

Salt lamp: Earthbound Call it mood lighting, but a great salt lamp will release negative ions and create a peaceful atmosphere for any room.

 

 

For the Ladies

Makeup: Ilia and Crunchi are the clean beauty brands we love. 

Journal: Five Minute Journal Journaling will help simplify your day and destress your mind.

Clothing: Quince, PACT, Mate the Label, and Organic Basics are our affordable go-to's for quality clean clothing.

Bath salts: Ancient Minerals Magnesium flakes help to soothe aches and detox bath time.
