Health + Wellness Gift Guide to Start the New Year Strong

Health + Wellness Gift Guide to Start the New Year Strong

Ah, New Years. The “reset” time after the holiday craze to focus and set up yourself up strong for the next adventure. I know physical and mental goals are always top of mind for me as I reflect on my word of the year. If you know someone who’s looking to embrace 2020 as their best year yet, help them along their journey with these thoughtful gift ideas.

Health + Wellness Gift Guide to Start the New Year Strong

.01 Glass Water Bottle with Silicone Sleeve| $17
Every health journey begins with drinking more water. This glass option with a silicone sleeve gives all the benefits of a BPA free bottle with added bumper protection.

.02 Matte Pack Coil Hair Ties | $7
Cute, reliable hair ties are a little luxury that can make gym time feel like an indulgence.

.03 Glass Meal Prep Containers | ~$30
Glass > plastic to keep those healthy meals optimally health! I love the sets with built-in dividers so your giftee can add a little diversity to their meal planning.

.04 Moon Print Yoga Mat | $39
I recently tried out Society6’s yoga mats after eyeing their designs forever. The mats are nice and thick and don’t slip! Their prints are sharp and with so many designs to choose from, you’ll be able to find the perfect one for your giftee.

.05 Wrap Sports Top | $39
Cute workout gear falls into that same, you don’t need it category as the upgraded hair ties, but it’s nice to have a workout kit that makes you feel your best.

.06 Bluetooth, Sweatproof Earbuds | $20
I freaking love these headphones. After switching from Android to iPhone, my go-to, plug in headphones no longer worked. These guys stay put on the treadmill and I never have to worry about sweat ruining them.

.07 Class Pass Giftcard | $50+
I still kick myself for not trying this when we lived in Chicago. Class Pass lets you try out a ton of workout classes in your area without having to be a member of each separate gym. That way you can switch between yoga, CrossFit, even aerial acrobatics, without having to pick a lane.

.08 Guided Journal for Self-Reflection | $14
First seen on Brittini’s stocking stuffer guide, this journal prompts you to slow down to reflect and accept.

.09 Modular, Canvas Travel Tote | $128
Gym bags with a dedicated shoe compartment are a major, major win.

.10 Lavender Yoga Mat Cleaner | $11
Clean those mats people! This spray will not only disinfect mats but leave a calming scent behind as well. If you’re in the DIY mood, you can always make a bulk batch for all your yogi friends.

.11  Cork Massage Ball | $15
Get a more targeted, deep tissue massage with a firm cork ball.

.12 Ikat Meditation Cushion | $89
Meditation cushions encourage proper posture for extended sessions.

.13 Sun Salutation Poster | $20
Encourage a good morning routine with a sun salutation poster that guides them through the sequence.

Look twice; it’s no split image, it’s my one of my Look twice; it’s no split image, it’s my one of my favorite parts from the  #haileyhome condo. There Michael had his desk shoved in the corner of our small bedroom. As much as I wanted a light and airy feel, the desk always felt unintentionally “floaty”. With just paint and shelves, his desk went from an afterthought to a defined workspace with it’s own voice that felt distinct yet still a part of the room.

In our current house, I’m looking back at this project since next on my list will be Michael’s office! Michael inspired me with his 5 year anniversary gift to me (a nice furniture piece- he definitely knows me ☺️) so my gift to him will be wood shelves for his new office, plus a little space makeover. 

Excited to take on a small project while the kitchen reno is underway. It’ll feel nice to feel project progress somewhere and get hands on for the first time since Cade arrived ☺️
I set up a baby studio for Cade’s “month by month” I set up a baby studio for Cade’s “month by month” shots and there’s no way I’m taking it down for the rest of the year 😅 

It’s worth the space it takes up though. Capturing his growth and personality feels like the greatest privilege. I can’t believe there were only 3 weeks between his newborn and 1 month photos 🥲

I’ll take any and all inducing tips 😅
#ad #cricutmade #cricutbright360 I’ve been auditi #ad #cricutmade #cricutbright360 
I’ve been auditioning different rooms around the new house for my studio space. Some have great storage, some have better natural light, but NONE have over headlight lighting. I didn’t think much of it until I tried crafting after work and realized, dang, I really can’t see anything 😅. I tried to make it work with different table lamps, photography lighting, even grow lights (spoiler: do not attempt unless you like being blinded). It wasn’t great. I figured I’d eventually get a proper crafting light, but wasn’t thrilled with the limited, and frankly ugly, options. 

I bet you picked up on this from the photo, but I finally found THE solution. @cricut just released their Cricut Bright 360 task lamps and it’s everything I could have ever dreamed of! I’ve been putting this lamp through its paces for a few weeks with nesting DIYs and will have a full review on the blog soon!
