2022 Healthy Holiday Gift Guide

November 6, 2022 By Melanie No Comments

Hello and happy November! We had a snowstorm blow through Denver last night and when I awoke to a winter wonderland in my own backyard, I really couldn’t help but get into the holiday spirit! I know we’re still technically early on in the season but I’m all about celebrating holiday festiveness as early as you please and that’s why I’m releasing my annual Healthy Holiday Gift Guide the first weekend in November to allow for plenty of time to shop! I can’t believe this will be my fifth year releasing a gift guide (check out last year’s version HERE). I remember back in 2018 barely anyone shared custom gift guides and now they’re EVERYWHERE. So please know that I really appreciate you taking the time to check out mine. I did my best to include a variety of different categories and unique items — many that I’ve tried, tested and love myself. Others are simply things that I personally would buy as a gift or things I really think you all would find exciting too.

I’ll be sharing a larger more comprehensive part 2 of these gift guides on my LTK later this month! In the meantime, I hope you enjoy these eight categories and that it comes in handy while you’re doing your holiday shopping this year.

Welcome to my morning bliss list ~ featuring five minute habits that spark all kinds of joy 💛

Mornings look a little different these days but I’ve noticed when I’m able to squeeze these 10 different things in my mental health is SO much better 

✨Swipe through my lil scrapbook and let me know which ones you also love incorporating into your #morningroutine ✨

10 Habits:

❣️Making my bed 
❣️Getting morning sunlight 
❣️Gratitude journaling
❣️Coffee in a cute cup 
❣️Skincare & Makeup routine 
❣️Positive Affirmations 
❣️Tending to my garden 
❣️Dressing for success

#Ad Self-Care morning routines are a little shorte
#Ad Self-Care morning routines are a little shorter these days and that just means I’ve learned to prioritize habits and products that go the extra mile to make me feel my best! ✨

One #healthyhabit I’m always working on, especially living in Colorado, is #hydration and that’s why I was SO excited to get my hands on @goultima’s NEW Collagen Defense! I mean… an electrolyte drink that keeps me hydrated AND has skin boosting benefits? Sign me up! 👏🏻🍓 

The Kiwi Strawberry flavor is so refreshing and the blend of Dermaval and Biotin helps to protect skin’s natural collagen & elastin plus support hair, skin and nails. The best part? It tastes amazing and has no sugar, calories, carbs or artificial sweeteners.

Head to my stories for the link and let me know if you’ll be trying this for yourself! 💕

A little reminder that your younger self would be
A little reminder that your younger self would be so PROUD of how far you’ve come and this life you are currently living is worth celebrating every. single. day. 💛

I’m someone who is always chasing new goals… and while I appreciate my willingness to hustle, I also know that without intentionally pausing to find gratitude in the present moment it can be far to easy to get used to the things you once were working so hard for. 

This morning, in the midst of my brain starting to spiral thinking about “what’s next” (and having a minor meltdown), I had a moment where I looked around and realized “wow, THIS life is exactly what you dreamed of years ago.” 

And if I look back on so many previous years of my life, I had countless other “aha” moments like that too. Many things that my younger self would have never dreamed possible, became a reality… sometimes in the smallest, most subtle of ways 

All this to say, it’s SO important to keep chasing your dreams. This world needs you. It needs you and your voice, your gifts, your talents and your unique perspective ☺️

Just don’t forget to pause every once in awhile and look around with gratitude for the life you are living right now too 💕

#Ford_Ambassador Welcome back to “romanticizing routines,” a mini series where I’m sharing different ways to find joy in the small, everyday moments. 💛

Today’s tip is all about leaning into seasonal joys and with it being early summertime that calls for gardening!🪏🪴🫜It’s times like these that I’m SO happy I have my 2025 @Ford Explorer® SUV because the cargo space is perfect for large hauls. 

The available feature back seats fold down with a touch of a button and it’s been a game changer for road trips and grocery shopping. In this case I was able to fill it with multiple bags of soil, a pot and lots of starter flowers, herbs and strawberries! 🍓🌼 

This is just the beginning of plenty more planting I plan on doing this season and I can’t wait to share more. I already know we’ll be spending lots of time out on our back porch, whether we are gardening, barbecuing, sipping coffee in the morning or hosting friends for dinner. 🍽️ 

Let me know if you want to see the start of my cut flower garden and maybe a full garden tour later this month!

Mondays are for matcha and I’ll be having this blueberry iced #matchalatte all summer long 🫐🩵

It’s so easy to make and tastes sweet & refreshing! Here’s a little step-by-step of how to make the BEST matcha at home: 

✨ sift 1 tsp ceremonial grade matcha powder to remove clumps 
✨ Pour 1/4 cup of hot water, ideally between 160-175 degrees Fahrenheit, over matcha 
✨ Using bamboo whisk, whisk vigorously in a W shape until microfoam forms 

For the blueberry portion, muddle fresh blueberries with blueberry syrup (or make a homemade blueberry syrup by heating blueberries with sugar, lemon juice and water over the stove)

Pour blueberry syrup in glass, add ice, pour in milk of choice and top with matcha for a beautiful layered effect 

Swirl and enjoy! 💙🦋

Spend a morning with me and my two little pups, Nina and Chip! 💕🐶 Many of you know we adopted both of these cuties years ago and even though our (human) baby has changed up our daily routine, these pups are always along for the ride and have adapted to our new family member beautifully. 

Since wellness is obviously super important to me, you know that means I take EXTRA care with what I feed my pups! 💚 Luckily @crumpsnaturals makes such a wonderful line of all-natural, premium dog treats made with simple ingredients and no artificial
flavors, colors or preservatives! Nina’s fav are the duck mini trainers. 

Chip also really loves their Fish & Superfood Greens meal topper – I just sprinkle it on his food every morning for extra vitamins to help his skin and coat! 

I’m just grateful that it makes caring for my furbaby’s wellbeing super easy and one less thing this busy mama has to think about every day!  #ad ☺️
