Well, I’m going to help you with that one! Here’s a list of 10 holiday wellness gift ideas that’s sure to make any Fitness lover “jumping jack” for Joy (see what I did there)!
Gift #1
RESTORE Sleep Machine
This little treasure can be found on sites like AMAZON, Walmart and Nordstrom. Sleep is an essential element to any Fitness and Wellness routine and this little beauty can help with all things sleep. It’s a sound machine, white noise machine, sleep tracker and alarm clock all in one. There’s an app for that! You can even control it through an app! This particular sleep machine goes for around $130 on Amazon. Not looking to spend that much? Keep reading, we have some less expensive options for you.
Gift #2
Tea Forte Wellbeing Organic Wellness Teas
Tea lover in your life? Who doesn’t love to chill out after a long day with a nice, comforting cup of hot tea? This option is a bit more “Budget friendly” as this gift set is only $28 on AMAZON and it comes with 1 day shipping!
Gift #3
Meditation Cushion
For the Meditation and Yoga lover in your life…how about a Meditation cushion/ floor pillow? These range in price from $15 all the way up to $100 and can be purchased from Amazon, Kohl’s, Target, etc. With such a range you can easily find something to fit in your budget and your Yogi’s style.
Gift #4
Mindfulness Cards
Speaking of Meditation, how about Mindfulness cards? This set from UNCOMMON GOODS comes with over 50 different exercises to help practice Meditation and Mindfulness. With a price tag of only $16.95 this could be a great stocking stuffer idea!
Gift #5
Pickleball Paddles
Haven’t heard of Pickleball? Have you been working that hard? Just kidding. Pickleball is everywhere right now, it’s the hottest, fastest growing sport in the U.S. and it seems everyone is jumping on the wagon. Pickleball paddles range from $15 to $35 for wooden paddles, $40 to $100 for composite paddles and $90 to $100 for graphite paddles. Whatever your price range, there is a Pickleball paddle for you and your Pickleball athlete.
Gift #6
Motivational Water Bottles
Drink more water! Get more sleep! It seems as if these 2 phrases are two of the most important elements of Wellness and 2 of the most under-appreciated. We’ve already touched on sleep helpers but what about water consumption? Everyone is carrying reusable water bottles instead of those wasteful, plastic bottles. Help your Fitness lover get on the Hydration train and give them a water bottle that keeps them drinking water throughout the course of the day. Also a great stocking stuffer idea at $21 on AMAZON.
Gift #7
Foam Roller
To be completely honest, I don’t know what I would do without my foam roller. If you have someone in your life who’s into working out (running, Pilates, Yoga, Crossfit…whatever) and they’re not using a foam roller, they’re doing a disservice to themselves. These are relatively inexpensive and come in a variety of sizes, some have “nubbies”, some don’t, but all are fantastic.
Gift #8
Fitness Trackers
Fitness Trackers/Watches are all the rage right now. With sleep trackers, heart rate monitors, pedometers and music player options…why wouldn’t you get a tracker? Have someone training for a big race? Get them a Fitness Tracker! With a big range in price, you’ll be sure to find something in your budget. Keep an eye out for sales. You can easily find great deals on electronics so close to the holidays.
Gift #9
Fitness Subscription/Online Personal Training Sessions
The Fitness industry is changing (thanks Covid!), most companies are now offering Virtual/Online classes along with their In-Person Programs. Online Personal Training programs are much more cost effective while still reaping the benefits of having a Personal Trainer at your fingertips. Online programs provide the client with a complete program (Strength, Cardio, Yoga, etc) along with add-ons such as Nutritional Programming and Sport Specific Programming. Prices range from $30-$100 for subscription apps and $100-$300 for online Personal Training. If you would like to get more information on FITTHAPPENS’ ONLINE PROGRAMS, please CONTACT US today!
Gift #10
Fitness Gear
Who doesn’t want to look cute while they’re working out? Function is also a big deal for Fitness enthusiasts (you don’t want your pants falling down while doing Burpees or Downward Dog). ACTIVEWEAR BY DANI has a great line of Men’s, Women’s and Children’s clothing along with any accessories they might need for hiking or running in cold weather (eh hem…warm, light running gloves). With such a huge selection, you’ll find the perfect gift within your budget.
