Looking for gifts that are functional and thoughtful for the people in your life? Keep reading for The Mindful Family Gift Guide!
Maybe you see the word “mindful” and feel as though that couldn’t be farther from how you would describe your family–but guess what? You should! Being mindful doesn’t mean getting it all right (you can still run the clothes in the washer again when you forget about them, and count a bowl of cereal as dinner sometimes), it’s about making little efforts to be more aware every day.
Mindful families aren’t perfect, they’re just paying attention–conscious of how they spend their time, what they consume (from ingredients to entertainment), and where their money goes. The fact that this gift guide made it into your hands is proof that you’re doing it! So, with the holidays coming up, we want to help ease some of the fatigue that can come with conscious gifting by sharing some ideas for mindful gifts you can add to the top of your gift (or wish) list this season.
