If you’re anything like me, the day after Thanksgiving is spent sprinting through stores looking for the hottest Black Friday deals.  And if you’re REALLY serious, you’re up at 3 or 4am standing in line to save dollars on your holiday shopping.

This year, let me save you the trouble of putting on your yoga pants & spraying dry shampoo like a mad woman before dashing out the door in the wee hours of Black Friday morning.  Because you can find some FANTASTIC wellness deals on Amazon that will delight your yoga-loving friend and your cousin who’s really into Essential Oils this year.

Here, dear bargain-loving sister, is my list of the Top 5 wellness gifts to buy online.  They’re affordable, convenient and I personally want one of everything here.  In no certain order…

1.)  Ultrasonic Wood Grain Oil Diffuser from Now Foods

Why I love it:  I’ve seen this baby in action and I can testify it pumps out an ultra-fine aromatherapy mist like a CHAMP.  Plus it’s BPA-free, can run up to 8 hours, is very quiet and has an LED color-changing night light.  Those qualities are hard to find in a diffuser.  Honestly, I wish I’d bought this instead of the other brands I tried.  You get FREE SHIPPING on orders over $49.  Get one for you + one for your friend/daughter/a teacher gift.

Pro tip:  Since you’re buying the diffuser, get essential oils to put in it.  This starter kit from Aura Cacia has 4 basic aromatherapy oils everyone needs and would make a great item for a gift exchange.

 

2.)  Himalayan Salt Lamps – Set of 2

The health benefits of Himalayan salt lamps come from its ability to purify the air, and businesses have even cropped up where people sit in a “himalayan salt cave” room to breathe easier.  This set of 2 is a great buy, and you could gift them separately.  They emit a gentle aura, and I use them as a night light or to soften the room for yoga practice.

Pro tip:  bundle one of these lamps with a meditation pillow or a Tibetan singing bowl to make an intentional gift for your friend who loves to meditate.

 

3.)  Start Where You Are: A Journal for Self-Exploration by Meera Lee Patel

This is the #1 Best Seller on Amazon in the Journals category, ahead of even The 52 Lists Project journal from Moorea Seal (another one I recommend).  And for good reason:  I bought this journal and wanted to frame the pages instead of write in it.  It’s that beautiful.  Filled with hand-lettering, inspiring quotes and writing prompts, this journal makes a gift that would be cherished by any lady making positive changes in her life.

 

4.)  Free Thirty Three – Yoga Mat

This mat may seem pricey but it’s actually a middle price-point if you research higher-quality mats.  The reason I’m putting it here?  It incorporates a non-slip fabric that absorbs sweat (great for hot yoga), it’s machine washable, comes in 7 gorgeous patterns and includes a carrying strap.  With all these features and the great reviews, they probably should be charging more for this mat.  Go buy it before they realize it.

Pro tip:  throw in this organic, non-toxic yoga mat spray so your loved one can sanitize their mat after hot yoga class & keep it germ-free.

 

5.)  Fitbit Blaze Smart Fitness Watch

Many people aren’t getting enough exercise every day, so counting steps and tracking activity has become a necessity.  I see all of you out there using Fitbit for tracking your fitness goals, so I’m including my favorite one here.  I like the black one because it matches more outfits and blends in.  This model syncs wirelessly with 200+ devices, is water resistant and has a battery life of 5 days.

Pro tip:  keep up your daily water intake with the cult-favorite bkr glass water bottle with silicone sleeve.  It comes in virtually any color you could want and includes a 90-day warranty.

 

So those are my Amazon gift recommendations, ladies!  I hope this makes your holiday shopping easier.  And if you still choose to battle the Black Friday crowds…stay safe out there, sister!
