Conscious Gifting: 2022
Tis the season…
The holidays are here and so is this year’s gift guide! As usual, this is consciously curated and includes gifts big and small that are female founded, BIPOC owned, give back, go further and more! Keep reading to check it all out…
I might be biased, but there is no better gift than pilates! Giving someone the opportunity to take care of their mind and body is a gift that will keep on giving. I have a special year long membership at $175 (normally $240) or you can opt for a gift certificate and give the person the option of what their pilates commitment style is.
You’ve heard me talk about this chair before and that’s because it’s amazing! It helps you sit at a better angle that way your hips and back aren’t overly cramped after hours of sitting. This has been a game changer for me sitting at my desk running my business. Whomever you gift this to, their back will thank you!
I have this mat in my NYC apartment and love it. It’s so happy and has a good amount of squish so your spine is protected nicely during our rolling exercises. If you have someone in your life that is drawn to pilates and art this would be for them!
This stuff is amazing. It’s like the popcorn trio you ate as a kid but 10x as good. Its dairy and refined sugar free yet full of flavor. It is the perfect hostess or foodie gift! Be sure to use xoAPP at checkout for 20% off your first order.
I love De Soi. It was started by Katy Perry after she became a mom and wanted something to help her destress that wasn’t mind altering. This is refreshing, delicious, and calming without the effects or sugar that alcohol brings. This is the perfect gift for someone who is conscious about their alcohol consumption or even for yourself to have on hand in the fridge. I love that it comes in a wine bottle shape so it still feels festive even though there’s no alcohol!
This olive oil is life changing. It is so noticeably different in taste. I am addicted to using it and love the packaging. It’s perfect for anyone who loves to spend time in the kitchen - they will appreciate this gift with out a doubt!
I love this thing. It is amazing for to de-puff your face, wake you up, smooth lines, and have your serums/creams absorb better. I use this every morning. If you know anyone who is into their beauty routine, this would be for them!
Every Mother Counts is a charity that means a lot to me. It brings birth equality and safety to both mother’s and their babies. They do meaningful work around the world. They have a number of brand partnerships that make some really great gifts. I love the sweatshirts by Clare V - where 30% of the sales go straight to EMC.
These have been on my wishlist because they are amazing. They help your body to recover and destress leaving you ready for your next workout. We are very much hoping Santa brings them to us this year!
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again - Beyond Yoga is beyond my favorite. It is so soft, flattering, and has such great colors/styles. It is my daily uniform in a rainbow of colors. Be sure to click on the link below for 15% off your purchase!
I love Equipt’s wrap weights. They are used over and over in my classes and are not only the perfect add on but also look so chic when not in use. I’ve used a number of other weights and these are by far the most comfortable. These would pair perfectly with a gift certificate to my classes!
