Holiday Health Gift Guide Ideas

It is the holiday season again!

I figured I would share my latest purchases and obsessions with you. These are all health-related purchases that I have been enjoying wildly.

I am aware that the holidays can make many people anxious. I have always had a gooshy feeling during that season even though I am always away from family.

I connect the holidays to a certain feeling in nature -it is the approach of the winter solstice. The winter solstice is the return of the light – a big event in nature.

Regardless of whether you love or hate or are indifferent to the holiday season, here are some health ideas that you can consider for yourself or as gifts.

Below I will provide you with affiliate links where if I have such. If you click on them a small portion of the sales goes to me. Thank you.

BOOKS

Books are a good way

I  am head over heels for this one.

Robert Becker BODY ELECTRIC

I just started it last week and it is mind-blowing.

John R. Lee book on hormones. You can get any of his books but his menopause and perimenopause books are amazing. The Perimenopause book can apply to pretty much any age.

Moenopause Book 

Perimenopause Book

Both books are foundational. I don’t agree with their supplement recommendations but overall the books are a solid foundation in understanding the female hormones correctly. They sort out the hormone replacement confusion. They cover some alternative therapies.

RED LIGHT

a good panel is always a splurge and the holidays are the time of the year with the biggest sales. I use my red light panel daily. Red light is best used in the morning after we get exposed to the natural light outside. The panels can be too bright at night time, which can interfere with melatonin production. However, when we use them during the day when the lighting outside is naturally bright a red light pannel can improve our sleep quality.

I have a full-body panel – an older model from 2022. I have been using it, on a consistent base, since I bought it.

BLUE LIGHT BLOCKERS 

We have been wearing blue light blockers by MIDWEST 

They are effective, affordable and they have a great pair for kids. i use the orange lens. I also have a few red light night lights for our bathroom so we don’t have to turn on the bright lights during the night. I also use their yellow light bulb before bed.

The company also sells red light panels.

HYDROGEN WATER BOTTLE

This is the latest addition to my routine. I’ve been meaning to try a hydrogen water bottle. This company reached out to me. I was already on the market for one so I agreed to try it out. While the stronger machines run in the $3-6k price and I am not shopping for one now I enjoy this bottle. It’s very high quality. Borosilicate glass.

This post can be a mile long but I want to keep it short and sweet.

My latest obsession has been natural fibers to the max.

Thrifted organic, linen, hemp, and wool clothes. I have been switching up my wardrobe and it has been surprisingly fun. I got some cool clothes at thredup.

Join with my family code THREDUP 

only for new members. If you are new you get a really good discount code 45% off plus a $10 credit towards your second purchase.

Let me know if you join and what goodies you find. So far I have gotten linen dresses for gardening and as pajamas. Hemp overalls, beautiful dresses, and some very warm wool cardigans.

I got some organic cotton workout clothes. I am still in the process of figuring out what kind of clothes I will shoot videos in.

I have gotten some merino and Cashmere cardigans for my daughter.

All in all I have found some amazing fabrics and designs on there.

For lounging around the house I recommend Eileen Fishers linen clothes. You can find many as new clothes on the website.

I will do an additional gift guide later but these are my most current ideas and things I personally use.
