Holiday Gift Guide for Moms
The holidays are upon us and many of us have received gift wish lists from our kids. Very few moms really know what they want or what to give others. I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite things. I use these in my home daily and they have been so much fun to own. We are not made happy by material things, this I know, however it is nice to receive something that you will actually use and will spark some joy. So here we go…
Lavender Microwavable Heating Pad : I love putting this around my neck or across my lap when working. It instantly soothes tired muscles and brings comfort on a cold day. Couple this with some moringa hot chocolate and you’ve got it made!
Fun earrings : It’s always nice to have some cute simple jewelry to make an outfit. A lot of moms are short on time and slipping on some simple jewelry can make Mom feel special. (she already is!)
Arbonne Lip Gloss : I love this stuff. It tastes nice, looks natural, feels good on my dry lips, and best of all it’s non toxic! Nicely priced and easy to carry around anywhere. I buy the color Calla, but there are other shades to choose from. Enter ARBONNE10 at checkout for 10% off!
Thieves Cleaning Bundle : About 6 months ago I got into cleaning my house with Thieves. I love this stuff. It smells so good and does not dry my hands out. I feel good cleaning my house with all natural materials and I love to use the oil to diffuse in the air. It smells divine!
To Light Their Way: I came across this book a few months ago and just love it. It has liturgies and prayers parents can pray for their children through each season. It even has prayers to pray for your new driver which is good for us as we have two new drivers this year! Be still my heart!
New Balance Tennis Shoes : In September I took my teens to NYC and needed some shoes that were comfortable for all the walking and also stylish enough for all the Broadway :) I ordered these after all the good reviews and I’m glad I did! I have worn these so much since that trip. I have running shoes for my runs and long brisk walks, but these are my go to for something supportive and stylish.
AirPods Max : Okay, so to be honest I would never spend this kind of money on headphones. Like, ever. But this summer I entered a raffle at a large conference and what would you know, I won! And I can say these are amazing. They are comfortable and cancel out noise. Sometimes I just put them on to cut out background noise! Moms who struggle with auditory over stimulation, these would be wonderful for you!
Stanley Tumbler: I don’t actually have this tumbler, but I’m seeing it everywhere and how much people love it. We live in a very warm climate, and the fact this actually keeps cold drinks cold AND fits in your car cupholder, it’s a winner in my book. Available in a variety of colors too.
Coaching Gift Card: I don’t actually mail out gift cards, but your loved one can contact me and we can create one just for you. For one session or a whole package.
Fanny Pack Crossbody Bag: There is nothing so handy as one of these little bags when you just need to carry a wallet, lipstick and keys and maybe a few snacks for your kiddos. Cute as well!
Arbonne Eye Gels: I was given these a few years ago and now I cannot do without them. I have genetic puffy eyes and having allergies makes it worse. Some mornings I feel like its worse than others, especially on a night I’ve had trouble sleeping. Wear these gels for 10 minutes and you feel an instant refresh! They also leave behind a helpful serum that is good for your skin. It’s also all natural and safe ingredients. Have a spa in your own home! Sadly they are currently out of stock, but hopefully will refill soon. Another alternative is this under eye gel. Instant brightening for tired and puffy eyes.

Uggs Slippers: I would have never paid this for slippers but one Christmas I didn’t know what else to ask for when my dad asked me what I wanted. He got me these and I swear I live in them in the wintertime. I crave cold weather so I can wear them all day long. I may have even left the house in them ;) They are comfy and cozy, you won’t regret getting these!
Young Living Desert Mist Diffuser: I used to buy cheap diffusers but after getting one of these from a friend I went and ordered several for the rest of our house. It puts off the most amazing mist that also humidifies the air. It also has several settings for light (including a candle setting which is really pretty) and for how long you want it to go. I can set it to last all day. I love to diffuse all kinds of oil, especially Christmas Spirit (all year long!) My oldest teen mentioned how much she loves having these around the house, and a diffuser with some oils would be a great gift for a teen.
And there you have it! The 2022 Mom Gift Guide. I hope this is helpful to at least get some creative juices flowing when thinking about what we actually would like for the holidays, versus something that will take up dust and eventually be given away. Take care of yourself. You are giving a lot (especially in this season) and tending to your needs is crucial.
