Tone Therapy System
Starting off our list of mindfulness gift ideas for the holidays is the n.o.w. Tone Therapy System from the wellness brand solu. Perfect for the person always on the go, this tone therapy system only requires three minutes each day. Making use of the ancient Pythagorean tuning system for sound healing in order to refocus the listener's mind and reduce stress, the n.o.w. Tone Therapy System is branded as “yoga for your mind.”
Svago ZGR Zero Gravity Recliner
Taking mindfulness gift ideas to the next level is the Svago ZGR zero gravity recliner. These modern recliner designs improve on the traditional recliner and look after your mental and physical wellness. Beyond the plethora of potential physical health benefits of zero gravity chairs, they’re also ideal for practicing mindfulness through zero gravity meditation, calming breathing exercises, or simply unwinding in the evenings.
In the zero gravity position, the legs are elevated above the heart level, alleviating pressure from the lower back and distributing weight evenly along the body. This positioning can help with stress management stemming from mental or physical catalysts. After all, your mind can’t rest if your body isn’t at rest, too.
Perks like zero gravity recliners with heat and massage features enhance the overall experience, allowing the user to deepen their mindfulness practice while they heal mentally and physically. Zero gravity chairs are the perfect gift ideas for the holidays for friends, family, or even yourself!
Mindfulness Adult Coloring Book
You may be wondering how an adult coloring book makes our list of mindfulness gift ideas for the holidays. Adult coloring books like the Secret Garden Treasure Hunt and Coloring Book provide the user with opportunities to tune out from the hustle and bustle and live in the moment for a while. It helps the brain calm down and focus on a singular task instead of juggling a hectic schedule or to-do list. Initial studies have shown the benefits of adult coloring books like this, making them ideal for mindfulness as well as potentially helping improve mental health.
Headspace App Subscription
The modern world is full of sights, sounds, technology, and more. That doesn’t mean we can’t adapt technology to help us live in the moment, however! Next up on our list of mindfulness gift ideas for the holidays is a Headspace app subscription.
Available in both monthly and annual subscriptions, this app was started with one mission: to improve the health and happiness of the world. They claim the app has been proven to reduce stress by 14% in just 10 days, making it an excellent addition to anyone’s self-care routine. Headspace offers hundreds of mood-boosting meditations, relaxing sleep exercises, focus music, and more!
Mindful Breathing Necklace
Inspired by 17th century Japanese monks using a flute called a “shakuhachi” to find stillness, Komuso’s breathing necklace The Shift is meant to help slow breathing and enhance mindfulness practice. The Shift slows your exhale to create a better breathing habit.
With a chic, elegant design, this mindfulness gift idea also serves as both a tool and a gentle reminder to protect your well-being. In that way, it helps the wearer practice mindfulness even when they’re not actively using the necklace for breathing exercises.
Gratitude Journal
We’d be remiss to round out our list of mindfulness gift ideas for the holidays without including a gratitude journal. The Rise and Shine gratitude journal from Papier includes morning and evening prompts with five months worth of entries to fill in at any pace the user wants. It also has 30-day reflections so your friends or loved ones can record their thoughts, feelings, moments and lessons from the previous month.
We’re sure this guide has mindfulness gifts for everyone on your list this year! Whether it’s for a friend, family member, or even yourself, it’s never a wrong time to add mindful practices to your routine. Show how much you care by helping everyone on your list take care of themselves this year. Happy holidays!
