As Mother\u2019s Day approaches<\/a>, I\u2019ve gotten several requests from the husbands of a few readers for gift ideas for Mom. Sometimes regular chocolate doesn\u2019t cut it anymore!<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve compiled a list of some things I\u2019d want to get myself or gift my own mom. Feel free to add your favorite unique Mother\u2019s Day gifts in the comments! Some of these are definitely not your typical gifts but are ones that will help Mom be healthy and happy.<\/p>\n

Mother\u2019s Day Gift Ideas (She Won\u2019t Just Pretend She Loves)<\/h2>\n

How do you get a gift for the person who gave birth to you, cooked food for your entire childhood, and stayed by your side through teething\/tantrums\/friend drama\/dating and all the other challenges of childhood?<\/p>\n

It likely isn\u2019t possible to find one gift that says, \u201cThanks for everything you\u2019ve done for me,\u201d but I\u2019ve compiled a list of gifts Mom will be able to use and enjoy. These are thoughtful gifts I\u2019d give to my own mom or that I\u2019d be thrilled to receive from my kids.<\/p>\n

Of course, nothing beats a heartfelt handwritten Mother\u2019s Day card or handmade gift<\/a>. If you\u2019ve already got those covered, here\u2019s a list of some of the best Mother\u2019s Day gifts!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Annmarie Gianni Skincare<\/a> \u2013 I love Annmarie skincare products and how clean and effective they are! Their clean beauty trial includes a cleanser and anti-aging serum that leaves your skin feeling refreshed and toned! Treat the special Mom in your life to an amazing experience (and price!).<\/li>\n
  2. Alitura<\/a> \u2013 Besides the above, Alitura has one of my favorite night creams and face masks. I\u2019ve had the founder, Andy, on the podcast<\/a> in the past and he has an inspirational story of how and why he created this clean line of skin products.<\/li>\n
  3. Wine Subscription<\/a> \u2013 The secret to a happy mom? Wine showing up at the door! Just joking, of course (kind of), but if Mom is a wine lover, this is the gift that keeps on giving. I especially like this one from Dry Farms because I never get headaches from it like I used to from even just one glass of regular wine. It\u2019s organic, low-sugar, and free of any unhealthy additives.<\/li>\n
  4. Royally Flawless Facial Moisturizer<\/a> \u2013 Amazing facial oil from Etsy with the highest quality ingredients and no junk! My mom loves this stuff, and it\u2019s the only one I can use without breaking out. I\u2019ve used this for years!<\/li>\n
  5. Wellnesse Personal Care Products<\/a> \u2013 I designed my own line<\/a> of hair care, toothpaste, soap, and more to make Mom feel super pampered (and it\u2019s safe for the whole family!). Better yet, these formulas nourish hair and remineralize teeth with beneficial and science-backed ingredients from nature.<\/li>\n
  6. Solo Smokeless Outdoor Fire Pit<\/a> \u2013 This stand-alone, sleek-looking fire pit is a Wellness Mama team favorite this year. It burns natural wood, gives off the perfect amount of heat, and keeps irritating smoke away! Ideal for outdoor entertaining.<\/li>\n
  7. Four Sigmatic Coffee<\/a> \u2013 I guarantee she\u2019s been wanting to try it, and Mother\u2019s Day is the perfect excuse to splurge. It also makes a great \u201cHappy Mother\u2019s Day to me\u201d gift! If she\u2019s not into mushroom coffee, try a bag of smooth, amazing Purity Coffee<\/a>. I often blend the two.<\/li>\n
  8. New Cookware<\/a> \u2013 If mom\u2019s going to cook dinner it may as well be in style. I know using my beautiful set of non-toxic cookware from Our Place brings me joy every day! I also love this cookware<\/a> from Caraway. Use the code WELLNESSMAMA for $10 off. (Can\u2019t decide? See my full cookware review here.)<\/a><\/li>\n
  9. Real Plans Membership<\/a> \u2013 I love this meal planning service that lets me plan my meals each week in just minutes and shop in half the time. Give Mom some time off by saving her time on meal planning and prep (and even better, plan and shop for her for a few weeks!).<\/li>\n
  10. Daily Harvest Smoothie Box<\/a> \u2013 These real-food smoothies are super nourishing and delicious. They\u2019re my quick-fix snack or treat just for me. All you need is a freezer and a blender. The gift box option also lets the recipient pick the varieties, so you don\u2019t have to guess what they would like!<\/li>\n
  11. Amazon Gift Cards<\/a>\u2013 Give mom the gift of a gift card. Amazon has tons of items available and this way she can choose exactly what she wants.<\/li>\n
  12. Myobuddy Massager<\/a> \u2013 An amazing handheld massager that rivals what chiropractors use in-office (in fact, some of them do use Myobuddy). This percussive massager heats up, vibrates, and feels like a real massage. This is an especially great gift for a nursing mom to give her some love on her neck, shoulders, and back. Use the code WELLNESSMAMA for special discounts!<\/li>\n
  13. Shiatsu Massage Pillow<\/a> \u2013\u00a0I received this as a gift and absolutely love it! It rivals an actual massage, and I use it all the time after long days of cooking and running around with the kids.<\/li>\n
  14. Hydroflask Water Bottle<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0These stainless steel bottles are cute and functional! They keep liquids cold for up to 24 hours and hot for up to 12. Clearly Filtered<\/a> also makes similar bottles but with a filter built-in, so you always have clean, filtered water when you\u2019re on the go.<\/li>\n
  15. RTIC Tumbler<\/a> \u2013\u00a0This one performs as well as the high-priced Yeti, and I use mine all the time. Great for coffee, smoothies, and water.<\/li>\n
  16. Wake-up Light Gentle Alarm Clock<\/a> \u2013 Waking up can stink, especially after a long night of being up with littles. Wake up gently to gradual light and sound with this wake-up light.<\/li>\n
  17. Himalayan Salt Lamp<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Mom can enjoy the soothing warm orange glow at night from these beautiful lamps.<\/li>\n
  18. BonCharge Glasses<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 I wear these after dark for better sleep. Some studies show avoiding blue light after dark helps melatonin levels.<\/li>\n
  19. 100% Cotton\u00a0Sleep Mask<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 An eye mask that\u2019s actually comfortable! This handmade mask is 100% cotton and great for travel or home.<\/li>\n
  20. 10,000 Lux Happy Light<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 I use this super-bright light in the morning to keep my cortisol levels healthy.<\/li>\n
  21. Anything Le Creuset<\/a> \u2013 Incredible (but pricey) dishes. I\u2019ve been collecting a few pieces over the years and am resisting the urge to buy them all!<\/li>\n
  22. Dry Brush Set<\/a> \u2013 Brushing isn\u2019t just for hair and teeth. Brushing skin can help it stay smooth and supple and may improve collagen. It also feels great and is super-relaxing.<\/li>\n
  23. French Press Coffee Maker<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Coffee is my sanity some days. If the mom in your life is the same way, help her ditch the toxic plastic coffee maker with a glass French press or any of these non-toxic coffee makers<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  24. Instant Pot<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Revolutionize dinner! This electric pressure cooker makes roasts in about an hour and turns tough cuts of meat into deliciously tender meals. You can even cook frozen meat in it on busy days when you forgot to defrost the meat that morning.<\/li>\n
  25. Kokomo Cream Organic Deodorant<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 This natural deodorant smells like the tropics and lasts for months.<\/li>\n
  26. The Wellness Mama Cookbook<\/em><\/a>\u00a0or The Wellness Mama 5-Step Lifestyle Detox<\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/em>\u2013 Ok, I\u2019m biased, but my cookbook is filled with two hundred delicious real-food recipes that our family loves (and I know yours will, too!).<\/li>\n
  27. Wine Bottle Tiki Torch<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Upcycle old wine bottles with these adorable tiki-torch kits.<\/li>\n
  28. Sauna<\/a> \u2013 While we\u2019re dreaming, how about a sauna? A sound-proof house of her own away from everything that will also improve her health!? She\u2019ll be thanking you for years! I also love this personal sauna<\/a> and used it for years in my bedroom.<\/li>\n
  29. Clean Water and more<\/a> \u2013 Our friends at Radiant Life carry so many high-quality products that I couldn\u2019t live without. Moms often worry about the health of their families. Our Radiant Life water filter was one of my favorite gifts ever.<\/li>\n
  30. Plant Therapy<\/a> essential oils come in boxed gift sets delivered monthly. I also can\u2019t get enough of their natural body creams, hydrosols, and lotions.<\/li>\n
  31. Nail Polish<\/a> \u2013 Pick out a few fun colors and have a girls\u2019 spa night<\/a> in. Add in this fun manicure set<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  32. CAROL Bike<\/a> \u2013 Give the gift of fitness! I shared the CAROL bike during a podcast interview<\/a> with the co-founder, Ratna, and many of you have loved this bike and way of exercising. Use the coupon code wellnessmama for a discount.<\/li>\n
  33. Heat Healer Sauna Blanket<\/a> \u2013 We all know about the many benefits of sauna use. I\u2019ve found this sauna blanket to be a great option for those who are short on space and\/or need to find a budget-friendly sauna. Simply unfold it, plug it in, and relax in the blanket while you watch TV or listen to music or a podcast<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  34. Fontana candles<\/a> \u2013 I finally found a non-toxic candle that I love! Their candles are made with beeswax and coconut and scented with essential oils. They even use wooden wicks. They have some great scents, including French Press Coffee!<\/li>\n
  35. Pique Tea<\/a> \u2013 For the Mom who begins (or ends!) her day with a cup of tea. Pique uses incredibly fresh and pure ingredients and triple screens for toxins.<\/li>\n
  36. Cheesecake<\/a> \u2013 To go with a cup of tea or simply for a healthier version of this delicious dessert, try a Wonder Monday Cheesecake. Save $5 off your order with the code WELLNESSMAMA5.<\/li>\n
  37. Apollo Neuro<\/a> \u2013 Unlike other wearable devices, this doesn\u2019t track your stress or sleep, it helps fix them. It releases soothing vibrations that can help mom feel calmer, get better sleep, and be more focused. Use code wellnessmama15 for a discount.<\/li>\n
  38. Herb Garden Kit<\/a> \u2013 Let mom test her green thumb with this organic herb garden kit. It has everything she needs to get started.<\/li>\n
  39. Crossbody Bag <\/a>\u2013 This small canvas crossbody bag is perfect for carrying things on the go. There are tons of designs to choose from and it has zippered compartments to keep things organized.<\/li>\n
  40. Tote Bag<\/a> \u2013 These cotton tote bags feature cute designs and are perfect for carrying groceries or mom\u2019s favorite books. You can even make your own tote bags<\/a> out of upcycled T-shirts.<\/li>\n
  41. Pajama Set \u2013 Help mom get comfy in a new pair of pajamas. I like looking at places like ThredUP<\/a> for good deals on 100% cotton and organic clothes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Gifts to Make<\/h3>\n

    Wanting something with a little more of a personal touch? Here are DIY gifts mom will love!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Brunch in Bed<\/strong> \u2013 Pssst\u2026 for all the dads out there. Help the kids make mom a healthy and yummy brunch to start the day. Here are some of my favorite breakfast ideas,<\/a> and many can be made ahead for easy prep. Or treat mom to her favorite brunch place.<\/li>\n
    2. DIY Skincare<\/strong> \u2013 Gift mom some homemade bath bombs<\/a>, lotion<\/a>, or shower steamers <\/a>(or all three!) for some self-care. DIY skincare is the perfect gift when mom needs a little pampering.<\/li>\n
    3. Home decor<\/strong> \u2013 If mom isn\u2019t into DIY skincare, maybe she\u2019d like some new home decor. Here are ideas for how to make your own wreaths<\/a>, plus how to make a burlap wreath.<\/a><\/li>\n
    4. Keepsake Memory Book<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 This gift is something you buy, but also something you customize. A keepsake photo book is a sentimental gift that mom will cherish for years to come. This also makes a great gift for new moms to document their baby\u2019s first year!<\/li>\n
    5. Photo Frame <\/strong>\u2013 Have the kids help decorate a picture frame and put a family photo in it. You can also find my tutorial for how to make an affordable DIY canvas photo print<\/a> here.<\/li>\n
    6. Gift Basket<\/strong> \u2013 These don\u2019t have to be cliche and boring. Put together a home spa kit<\/a> with either DIY skincare items or purchased ones (see above for my favorite skincare gifts). You can also do a gift basket with her favorite coffees, teas, and a new mug.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      If you need a last-minute Mother\u2019s Day gift, no worries. Slip a picture of the gift in a box or a card and Mom will have something to look forward to!<\/p>\n

      Bottom Line: Show Mom Lots of Love!<\/h2>\n

      I\u2019m not always a fan of Hallmark holidays, but moms give so much day in and day out (pregnancy and childbirth, just for starters!) and certainly deserve to be celebrated. Show Mom a little (or a lot) of extra love and care this Mother\u2019s Day and every day\u2026 hopefully, some of these ideas help!<\/p>\n
