2025 Holiday Gift Guide – Wellness Style!

The holidays are a beautiful reminder to slow down, savor, and celebrate the people we love … including ourselves. My annual wellness-inspired holiday gift guide is filled with thoughtful ideas that nourish body, mind, and spirit. From simple pleasures that bring calm to tools that support deeper well-being, these are gifts that encourage presence, connection, and a little more happiness in everyday life.

Like the holidays, true wellness isn’t about perfection; it’s about creating small moments that help us pause, connect with others, replenish, and thrive.

Kitchen Gifts:

6-piece Natural Teak Wooden Utensils for Cooking: bring a classic and elegant touch to your kitchen with the perfect assortment of practical sizes that are ergonomically shaped for the ideal functionality.
Bread Bags – keep your bread fresh for longer!
Bread Knife – finally stop shredding your fresh bread.

Brain Health

Daily Brain Games Calendar: For your pals who play games and those who want to keep their brains sharp.

Lotions, Potions, and Beauty Motions:

Doctor Rogers Restore Healing Balm – castor oil soothes, heals, and protects sensitive and injured skin from chapped cuts, burns or irritation.

For the Pause (peri, meno and post)

Cooling Neck Fan Great for hot flashes or just a hot day!
Weighted Hamsa Lap Blanket – for those times when you need a smaller, lap blanket. I like this when I’m at my desk and my feet are cold.

Easy Gift Card Ideas:

A local gym or yoga studio
A sauna/cold plunge studio
With me, Monique, to use on coaching, a wellness retreat, a private cooking class or to use on my 30-day Menopause Program

2019 healthy holiday gift guide

Finding the right gift is challenging anytime of the year. If you want to make it even more challenging, add a health-advocate to your list, one who is mindful of the foods they consume and the products they put on their skin. Seriously- it’s not easy.

There’s actually a ton of really amazing healthy options available, you just need to know WHAT to look for.

Below I’ve amassed a number of my favorite gift ideas … you might even want a few of these things for yourself as well!
~Happy Holidays,

zip-top slicon storage bags: These are currently my favorite ways to store food. No covers to loose or to break. I wasn’t sure I wanted to try these at first, but I love how easy it is to go from freezer to fridge or even in my backpack for lunch.

reusable food wraps: I love these as a natural alternative to plastic wrap!

kombucha starter : Perfect little starter kit for the fermenter in your life.

Reusable straws: Don’t skip the straw, just bring your own!

Nut milk bags: Don’t attempt to make nut milk without a nut milk bag!

And some of my current favorite products are all about clean; here’s a few of my essentials:

Hyauluronic acid: perfectly formulated to intensely hydrate dry skin, also helps to restore elasticity and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Refresh night serum: with COQ10 and carrot oil, our night serum helps defend against the damaging effects of free radicals.
Clean Cleaning: No harmful chemicals means no harsh chemical smell and no toxins to harm your family.
