Welcome welcommeeee to my gift guide!!!! I am an overachiever and a planner, what can I say? I manage anxiety by being prepared as HALE.

Here are some of my absolute FAVORITE things that I will be gifting to everyone I know this year!

PRANAMAT

This has been hand down one of my fave and most used purchases in the last year! I’ve given this acupressure massage set as a gift to pretty much everyone in my life. It is perfect for a quick recharge, or to wind down and support a really solid and restful sleep. Pranamat acupressure massage set has been amazing for managing tension headaches and sore muscles. An acupressure massage session releases muscle-tension, knots, and spasms! One of my favorite ways to use it is to lay on it in my bed, and just take some “me” time.

I love that I can take it anywhere to manage pain, stress, sleeplessness, or anxiety. When the massage spikes (they look like lotus flowers) come into contact with your skin, and you put pressure on them, it triggers a natural system of relief in the body. Pranamat acupressure massage set stops aches and pains, and also improves blood and lymph circulation as well as the supply of oxygen and nutrients. It gets little tingly, and feels like your whole body is supplied with blood. I always feel better after I use it!

The heart and intention behind the company is important to me. Pranamat ECO is 100% ethically made in Europe, and 100% sustainable. It’s made from zero waste coconut fiber and buckwheat hulls, linen and cotton. Even the signature lotus spikes are made from medical-grade plastic that has a low-energy, low-water and low-emission footprint and is recyclable. They are constantly moving towards zero-waste processes and the box is made from biodegradable and recyclable materials. It’s made to last. They have a 5 year warranty plus you can try it for 30 days to make sure you love it. (Andddd you will.)

Make this part of your own daily routine, and give it as a gift.

Give yourself 20 minutes laying on it, with the pillow, before bed.
Put it on your office chair and sit for the first 20 minutes of your workday!
Stand on it for 5 minutes while brushing your teeth or making your coffee.

Grab it here and use discount code ANNIE for 20% off + the mini turtle! (Perfect for taking with you on the go!)

WILD ALABASTER CRYSTALS

My most favorite crystal shop - Wild Alabaster!
It is a fully woman-owned, fair trade, small collection curated crystal shop that offers in store and online crystal shopping- plus a monthly crystal drop. A core value of owner, Rachael James, is to offer affordable pricing because she believes everybody should have access to earthy magic. Every crystal is hand selected, cleared and cleansed using a combination of methods including reiki, moonbathing, sun baths, smoke, sound vibration and essential oil cleansing.

Her collections are PERFECTION, with price points for every budget.

FALL WARDROBE STAPLES YOU MUST OWN

This tote. It is the most versatile bag - I own it in two colors! You can carry it three ways, and it fits EVERYTHING. Grab this organizer in size medium!
This jacket - I can’t bring myself to call it a “shacket” - sorry. It’s oversized and perfect. And this one is under $50 and PERFECT!
I wear this oversized pullover pretty much every weekend!

MUGS

I LOVE, love, LOOOOOVE a festive mug. Or just a pretty mug. It brings me joy to pick out which mug I’ll drink my coffee out of (although in the mornings, it’s always out of this Yeti that keeps it hot forevvva), my tea in the evenings, or my afternoon hot cocoa (Love this recipe here!). I love a warm drink, pretty much all the time.

Pair it with some hot cocoa mix, snowman hot cocoa bombs, gourmet marshmallows, or a festive chocolate stir stick!

Here are some of my faves for this season!

Here are a few things I’ve given as gifts to my hubby, my dad, brother, brother in-law-etc - obviously these work great for anyone too!

BOSE Sound Link Bluetooth Speaker - I LOVE taking portable speakers with me when we travel, these are great when you’re working outside, on the deck hanging out, where ever!

Hand Massager - So good for carpal tunnel or arthritis…or hands that run businesses from their phones lol

Neck + Shoulder Massager - also a dream for...um literally anyone.

Igloo Backpack Cooler - I am obsessed with these. The size is perfect, it has multiple compartments, and is a backpack!
