For the person who loves scented wall plug-ins but knows they’re not safe…
Everyone wants a pleasant smelling home- but most wall plug-ins available are actually very unhealthy, they contain both formaldehyde and a chemical called naphthalene.

For the anxious person…
Weighted blankets have been on the top of so many gifting guides because they work. We highlighted the health benefits of weighted blankets before, and we are big believers in their efficacy. So get one that is around 10% of the recipient’s weight and you will hear about how much they love it for years to come!
For the person who loves cardio…
Jumping rope has so many benefits, including being a fat blaster because it burns so many calories! This particular rope comes with a phone app to give access to hundreds of fast and effective workouts wherever and an online community of over 75,000 jumpers to keep motivated!

We love that they use the highest quality fragrance and essential oils, sustainably sourced and lovingly blended- so even though everyone loves having Fido around (and dogs are great for your well-being), no one has to smell him!

For the friend that loves Aromatherapy…
Aromatherapy is so healthy and has been used for millennia to treat all kinds of ailments. What we love about this particular nebulizer is how effective it is because it uses only pure essential oil, no water (like other traditional diffusers) to dilute the scent or to grow mold. It uses no heat so it maintains the therapeutic properties of your oils. It works by using a whisper-quiet, ultra-durable air pump to naturally atomize pure essential oil into millions of tiny micro-particles your body can absorb quickly. Our pro-tip: find an immunity essential oil blend to stave off any wintertime cold/flu bugs around your home!
