2024 Healthy Holiday Gift Guide

November 13, 2024 By Melanie No Comments

The holiday season is in full swing and you know what that means! I’m thrilled to share my 7th annual Healthy Holiday Gift Guide with all of you! This is one of my most popular posts that I do year after year and it means so much that you are taking the time to check out this year’s version. I had so much fun curating this list of 10 categories with 100 items to shop — many that I’ve tried, tested and love myself. Others are a mix of things I personally would buy as a gift, trendy products that I’m seeing ALL over the gram and gift ideas I know you all would find exciting too.

I hope you find this helpful as you search for the perfect presents for your loved ones (and yourself!) this holiday season! You can always check out last year’s version for extra ideas 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!

We made it halfway through 2025 and it’s the perfect time for a mid-year reset! Think of this as your invitation to check in on the goals you originally set for yourself, make small shifts to your routine and celebrate how far you’ve come

Be sure to swipe through all 6 wellness tips and SAVE this post to put this mid-year check into action!

✨REVISIT YOUR GOALS✨
This is your time to reconnect with your purpose and let go of what’s no longer serving you. Whether that’s setting a new intention, adjusting your old goals, or brainstorming solutions to challenges you’re facing 

✨ REFRESH YOUR ROUTINES✨
June is a great time to refresh your daily routine to best serve this season of life that you’re in. Try letting go of habits that don’t bring you joy, help you grow or make your life easier 

✨RECOMMIT TO YOUR WELLBEING✨
Let this reset give you the permission you need to focus on your own wellbeing and realign with routines that support your mental, physical and emotional health

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 ☺️

A little bts of my very first Mommy & Mini Garden Party I hosted in my backyard yesterday! 🦋🌼🍓

June is my FAV month of the year and this was such a sweet way to kick off the summer season ☀️. I’ve always loved hosting and having an excuse to create magical moments for my baby girl adds an extra layer of joy to it all

Tbh we had a rough week last week so having all the mama friends together and seeing them with their little ones was just what I needed to lift my spirits ☺️💕

Let me know if you have q’s about anything you see here and I’m happy to share! And of course a big thank you to all my mama friends who came out despite it being the hottest day of the year so far 😅

I’m back with another round of #HealthyHabits that will change your life (scroll further down my feed to find pt 1 if you missed it). 

Building a stack of habits that change the way you feel mentally, emotionally, and physically for the better is one of the best things you can do for yourself 🥰

If you need some tips on how to get started, here are 5 habits to add to your repertoire:

1️⃣ Schedule alone time: carving out time alone is essential for your wellbeing (even if you’re an extrovert like me). Find ways to make your time feel more special like taking yourself on a solo date 

2️⃣ Clean your space: a clear space = a clear mind, and one of my favorite ways to do this is to allot 30 min each evening for a “closing shift” where you do dishes, tidy up and prep your space so that you can wake up to a clean house

3️⃣ Make time for hobbies: it’s too easy to get caught up in the productivity hustle but making time for things that are just for fun can be the BEST thing for your creativity and mental wellbeing 

4️⃣ Go for a walk: getting in the habit of going outside to get your steps in and breathe in the fresh air is such a great way to reset for the day. There are lots of fun ways to make your walks more interesting, whether you listen to a new podcast or make it a mindful color walk 

5️⃣ Practice presence: the act of noticing your surroundings and fully immersing yourself in the simple moments is a life long practice. If tuning in to yourself is challenging and you find your mind wandering, try slowing down and being intentional to not multi-task and instead focus on one thing at a time 

Be sure to comment WORKSHEET below 👇🏼 if you want me to send you a copy of my free printable Mindful Morning Worksheet that can help you track your healthy habits and set goals for the week ahead 💕
