Christmas Presents Haul: 15 Gifts To Buy Your Friends and Family Right Now
***Disclaimer - this post may include affiliate links***
After such an emotionally charged year for all of us, this holiday period comes as a necessary time for us to give back and spend time with loved ones that we may have barely seen due to the pandemic.
Yep, Christmas may very well be quite different and a whole lot smaller, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be the best one yet. The joy of Christmas truly is in the giving. There is nothing that brings happiness quite like it.
It’s important to have a mindful approach to the holiday season and try (when possible) to shop with purpose and not with price. A well thought-out gift is much better than a last-minute one, and you can save a lot of money by planning and shopping ahead of time! Not to mention saving yourself a lot of stress.
That said, I do know the struggle of thinking of the right gifts to buy for everyone, whether for work colleagues for secret Santa, or for your family and friends.
With that in mind, I’ve created a little list of 15 presents I’d recommend buying this year, in case you need a couple of fresh ideas:
1. Essential Oil Set of 30 Aromas - This super affordable set would be the perfect introduction to essential oils for anyone who doesn’t know where to start. This is the gift that keeps on giving, as each aroma can provide feelings of calmness, inspiration, and at times, an extra boost of energy.
2.The Wild Unknown Animal Spirit Deck By Kim Krans - This deck of oracle cards is one of my favorites as it’s unique, colorful and adds depth to any readings. This gift will help provide guidance to some of the toughest, or most simple decisions and questions about your coming year!
3. The Desire Map & Workbook By Danielle LaPorte - This book will be ideal for anyone who’s looking for a bit of direction with planning and achieving their dreams. A great way to prepare and manifest an amazing 2021!
4.Bath Bombs - A super easy and vibrant gift, these bath bombs made from shea and cocoa butter are a great buy for anyone who loves a little bit of self-care. Let’s be honest, after the year we’ve had, who couldn’t use a bit of self-care?
5. Yankee Candle - Christmas Cookie - You can never go wrong with a good candle! Especially Christmas cookie scented.
6. Amazon Gift Card - This $50 card will be a great gift for anyone who would rather purchase their own things - it’s the thought that counts. Not to mention, an Amazon gift card is a great way to encourage social distancing! There’s no need to go to the packed stores during and post-holiday season, the gift comes right to their doorstep.
7. Echo Show 5 (Amazon Alexa with Video Calls) - Get this for a family member who can’t make it to Christmas dinner this year due to the pandemic. This Amazon Alexa is loads of fun and even has a camera feature to get in on the family video calls.
8.Happy Warrior By Jami Bertini - This practical guide will help anyone empower themselves in as little as 30 days. The motive behind the book is to inspire readers to find inner peace so it’s a lovely present for anyone who’s needing that right now.
