2.  Gift Hampers/Boxes

 

There are loads of great ready-made self-care gift hamper ideas out there.  They tend to be country-specific and here are a few I’ve found.

Cratejoy offers all manner of gift box subscriptions, many of which ship worldwide.   Here are a couple of my current favourite self-care ones.

 

 

Mindfulness Gift Hamper – UK

You could also have a go at making your own!  Here are some ideas for what to include.

 

3.  Relax In The Bath

 

There’s nothing better than relaxing in a hot bubble bath after a long stressful day.

If you know someone who loves lazing in the bath then they are going to adore this bathtub caddy.  Plenty of space to safely slot your book, tablet and drink.  Perfect!

Why not treat them to to a pampering bath gift set to go with the caddy?  Here are a few ideas.

Or how about these pretty bath bombs to add a touch of luxury?

 

 

4.  Sleep Well

 

Sleep is so important for health and wellbeing but let’s face it, it’s not always easy to get our Zs!

Here are some great self-care gifts to help lull anyone into dreamland.

Or, maybe an aromatherapy oil diffuser to lull them off to sleep?  This comes with a range of settings and has 4 timer modes and auto-shutoff.

Eye Masks

I don’t know about you but I need TOTAL darkness to be able to get my Zs properly!  I always have an eye mask nearby, particularly useful in the summer months.

The ones with adjustable straps are the best.

Here’s a colourful selection.

Weighted Blanket

I’m yet to try a weighted blanket.

I’ve heard such good things about them that one is on my wish list!

Research has shown that they can help with insomnia, anxiety and pain amongst other benefits.

Apparently, it’s a bit like getting a hug!  Very soothing!

 

5.  Luxury Hot Chocolate

What better thing to do on a cold winter’s night than to snuggle down with a mug of luxury hot chocolate?  My ultimate favourite is from Whittard of Chelsea

 Or check out this mixed set.

6.  A Nice Cup Of Tea

 

As I’m British I couldn’t miss this out now, could I??

Whittard’s do a fantastic selection.

(Click here for UK selection)

How about trying something a bit different with one of their fruit teas?

 

This Cranberry and Raspberry flavoured tea is lovely.

Or try my current favourite, this fantastic pink lemonade tea. (This is only available via the Whittards website, they ship internationally though).

 

And how about a posh teapot to make the tea in?

I love this cute yellow one from Amazon.

Or this pretty grey polka dot one from Whittards.

7.  Neck Massage

 

If you don’t have anyone to massage your neck for you then this funky tool could be just the thing!  (I have a hubby who could massage my neck but claims it ‘hurts his fingers’ so I may need to invest in one of these myself 😂)

8.  Cosy PJs

.

Who doesn’t love a pair of cosy PJs??!  I’m addicted to buying new pairs.  I need plenty as I tend to put them on as soon as I get home, whatever the time of day!  😃

Here’s a selection.
