For the mum already benefiting from a healthier life and those who are just thinking about it, choose a Mother’s Day gift to inspire and motivate health, after all, this is the greatest gift of all.
1. Potted Herbs. Not only for the mum with a green thumb, this gift idea is also for the mum who loves to cook with fresh produce. Your local nursery will have an array of seasonal herbs as well as decorative pots to put them in.
2. A High End Blender. You know the ones that replace ten kitchen appliances and make staying healthy a whole lot easier. They not only juice and blend but they can chop, grind, cook and freeze.
3. A Beautiful Tea Set. This is for the mum that loves her tea and enjoys connecting with friends over a cuppa. Choose a high quality, long lasting, stainless steel, porcelain, ceramic, stoneware or fine bone china and gift it with her favourite tea.
4. Exercise Membership. A month’s membership to a gym, yoga or Pilates studio will be a welcome surprise to the mum who needs some extra motivation and inspiration.
5. A Fitness Tracker. Another gift idea for the mum who needs motivation to improve her health by tracking activity, exercise, food, weight and sleep. Check out the Best Fitness Trackers for 2016 here
6. A Whole Foods Hamper. Fill up a basket or box with the yummiest and healthiest whole foods for your mum’s pantry. Include the best organic extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil, natural salt such as a Himalayan or Celtic sea salt or fancier kinds like a black sea salt, premium organic single herbs & spices and premium organic teas (include blacks, green and herbals).
7. A Cook Book. Choose one written by one of her favourite chefs or cooks. A cook book that is hot off the press and signed by the author will make mum feel extra special.
8. A Spa Treatment. Indulge your mum in a luxuriating and stress relieving face or body treatment. Choose a day spa that uses healthy products. Add in a voucher for some beautiful spa products so mum can continue looking after herself at home.
9. New Active Wear. They say that Active Wear is the new black, and whether you are truly active or simply catching up with friends, it has become acceptable attire for any occasion. Choose something functional as well as fashion forward for your mum. There is a lot to choose from. When in doubt choose something plain with a splash of print or colour.
