Resurfacing Peel – Glowing Youthful Skin with Safer Products
When I started to learn about cleaner beauty, it was a game changer for me. I just had no idea how impactful all the chemicals in our skincare were could be on things like hormones. One of the first things I tested out was this Beautycounter Resurfacing Peel and unlike normal things which can leave you flaky or dry, it made my skin glow and within a few weeks I started getting comments on how good my skin looked.

I’ve always had pretty good skin, but this helped to even out those dark spots, give me that glow again and just all around is now a staple in my routine!

Moisturizer with SPF – Keeping Us Protected and Looking Good
Step two in have great skin is getting on board with SPF all the time!!! It’s oddly one thing that runners skip because we don’t like to put a ton on our faces and in fact, I did a review of the best all natural sunscreens for runners to help with this issue!

But this particular item I like because it works as your daily moisturizer, has SPF and you can opt for a very light tint if you want something with just a tiny amount of coverage. No more excuses!

Rightful – Pain Relief and Sleep
Have a friend who always seems like their just a bit in the recovery hole? Not quite recovered from that last long run, but still dying to get in their next one….probably because it saves their sanity?!

Time to help them not only recover better, but sleep better and get a little mood boost in the process with Rightful. I LOVE this herbal supplement, which comes in a liquid form to ensure that you’re maximizing the amount your body absorbs and uses! Get them a one month option and the only downside will be they’ll complain you didn’t get more.

Turmeric Lattes
Nothing is more wonderful after a long run that a hot mug filled with a turmeric latte while I jump in to my compression tights and grab a book. I mean you feel the zen already, right? But alas that’s just not how every day goes, so these packets are designed to make things FAST and EASY and DELICIOUS.

No more spending $7 a day and needing to stop at the coffee shop, they can enjoy this drink any time from home and it’s dairy free!! Designed to help with things like joint pain, it’s just another tasty recovery option that they can enjoy

CBD Bath Bomb – Enhanced Recovery
If you haven’t napped in awhile, let me introduce you to your new best friend. I tried the recovery bath bomb after a particularly hard long run and found myself curled up for a wonderful snooze shortly after.

Definitely a winner for anyone you know who has trouble sleeping or needs extra recovery. I’m a huge fan of Resilience CBD oil for my own recovery, so I was skeptical about the bath bomb working as well…nope, my skin absorbed and loved all that goodness.

Another fun way to give them something new, instead of the same old same bath set. Use AMANDA20 for a discount on your first order!

Saje Pocket Pharmacy– Feel Good Body
There are a couple of essential oils that have been game changers for me. Lemongrass helps with my muscle tightness, a night time blend definitely improves my sleep and ohhhh the digestion for travel!

With the Saje set, I have small doses of some of the most common ones to use on the road. Taking care of digestion with all the new food, headaches from the travel and well potential pain from adding in some extra runs to explore new places.

Headspace – Mental Clarity
Have a super stressed out loved one in your life? I do. He has major sleep issues and that concerns me on so many levels, which is why I have loved having a subscription to Headspace.

Not only does it have guided meditations, but it has them for a variety of topics. I’ve found that I simply feel more productive if I’m selecting one that’s about work productivity or mental thoughts for athletic performance. And as noted they have a number designed around sleep which can help when you wake up with that racing mind.

Surprise your health fiend with something new this year, not another bath set. Wellness Gift Guide ideas for guys and gals #iamwellandgood #giftguide Click To Tweet

Blue Light Glasses – Better Sleep and Less Fatigue
For many of us, staring at a screen all day has become expected. Computer, phone, TV and round and round it goes. Instead of trying to get rid of these devices, which just isn’t possible any longer, let’s make them less impactful.

These super cute glasses help to reduce eye strain, tension headaches and by filtering out the blue light, you won’t need to worry about issues falling asleep. One of the most cited tips for improving your sleep is to eliminate screen time before bed, and while some has to do with mental stimulation from returning emails, mostly it’s about reducing your exposure to blue light which messes with our circadian rhythm.

Kindle Paper White – Less Strain on the Go Reading
Not your typical wellness gift, or is it?? I mean personally, I’m hoping this is the one blog post that Santa reads because I want this!

As an avid book reader, I’ve stayed away from screens partially due to the blue light issue noted above! The Kindle Paper White helps to make things easier to read and eliminate those issues. While I might still like the touch of a book at home, too many times now on trips I’ve finished my book and been stuck with nothing to read. With the Kindle, I can grab a free book from the library or download a book from Audible thanks to my prime memebership and be on my way!

Counterman – Sprucing Up the Men in Your Life
Anyone else have a husband who uses soap and water, calls it a day and moves on? With my husband turning 40 soon, I noticed that he was starting to explore the moisturizers and more manily face washes to help him also feel his best.

I figured why would I change my skincare to eliminate toxins and not do the same for him?!! I know he doesn’t think about these things, which is why I do it form him. :)

This set has shaving lotions, moisturizer, charcoal bars for him to wash after workouts and so much more. I’m legit giggling as I think about him opening it this Christmas because I know he’ll appreciate not having to find these things on his own!
