We understand it can be stressful to come up with gift ideas, especially if they are for the woman who brought you into this world. No pressure, right?
We are used to buying flowers and chocolates, but flowers die and chocolates aren’t good if you eat the whole box at once. The good news is that there are some healthy, and very cool, gift options out there. You just have to put in some work to find them.
We are here to help ease your mind. We put together a list of our favorite, healthy gifts for moms. There’s something for everyone, just think of what your mom would like.
Bath-bomb Box
Bubble baths help release muscle tension, cold symptoms, smooth your skin and they smell amazing! We’re sure mom will love to have some “me time” in a bubbly and colorful paradise.
Luxurious Hair Products
Hair oil works a moisturizer, because it contains tons of fatty acids, vitamin E and antioxidants. It turns hair from damaged to healthy and shiny.
Essential Oils
Essential oils not only smell amazing but they have so many health benefits. Each one has a different purpose. Lavender is a stress reliever, sandalwood helps you focus, bergamot helps with skins conditions (like eczema) and peppermint makes you more alert.
Buy mom a diffuser and a set of different oils so that she gets all the benefits.
Spa Day
Nowadays everyone is always on the go. It is never a bad idea to take a day to yourself and relax at peace. It helps your body and your mind.
Most moms love spa days, but they never allow themselves to spend the money so do it for her! A day at the spa will help her slow down and regenerate, it will decrease her stress and anxiety levels, ease her muscles and increase her serotonin levels.
Membership for a Class of Her Choice
Yes, we know there’s always the gym, but classes are so fun!
Ask your mom what her favorite kind of physical activity is and find a studio/gym that offers a similar class. Yoga, pilates, HIIT, etc. Being active means being happier. Help your mom be happier!
Workout Gear
You can’t workout without proper workout gear! Invest in a supportive sports bra, comfortable tights and fashionable workout shoes, she’ll thank you later! Wearing proper gym attire is more comfortable and can increase her range of motion!
Plants
Plants not only look cute in your house, they also offer many health benefits.
They reduce carbon dioxide levels inside the house, increase humidity and improve air quality. Bonsais, succulents, bamboo, you name it!
Assorted Fruit Basket
Why give mom a flower bouquet when you can get her a fruit basket? We’ve all heard fruits are great and we should it them on a daily basis, but make sure to pick the healthier option.
