2020 Healthy Holiday Gift Guide

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, the holiday season is in full swing and it’s the perfect time to share my 2020 Healthy Holiday Gift Guide!

This is my third year of sharing gift ideas (see 2018 and 2019) and even though there’s a certain heaviness around this holiday season, I couldn’t bring myself to break tradition. My hope is that it’ll bring a little holiday cheer to your home and give you some ideas for friends, family or even your own wish list.

You’ll find 10 different categories below based on what I think you all would love. There’s a little something for everybody and I tried to feature as many small businesses as possible since they truly need our support right now.

There are some more luxe options but many that are very budget friendly! If you like what you see you’ll be excited to hear that I’m bringing back my week long #HHHoliday Giveaway in December, featuring a few of the products in this guide. I can’t wait to share more so keep an eye on my IG if you want to stay in the loop.

In the meantime, I’m sending you all lots of love and wishing you happy holiday shopping!
