2016 The Honest Dietitian Gift Guide for Your Foodies & FitFam

GIFTS YOUR FITFAM & FOODIES WILL LOVE!

~**Half-Moon Yoga Products**~ 

Foodie, Fitfam, and all of your loved ones can benefit from the products at Half-Moon Yoga. You will find so many ways to give the gift of relaxation and strength to your loved ones. Here are some of my favorites:

The Hot & Cold Therapy Pillow with Lavender: THIS is the perfect gift for anyone who suffers from headaches or head/neck tension. You can heat it up in the microwave (what I prefer to put over my shoulders to relief tension) or you can put it in the freezer to get cold (what I prefer when I am suffering from migraines to put over my eyes). The lavender scent is divine and it was certainly a lot bigger than I expected, which was fantastic. If your MOM does not have one of these, get her one too. Get the therapy pillow here

The Om Zafus Meditation Cushion: This is a travel-sized meditation cushion that I have really come to love because not only is it comfortable to sit on for meditating or slowing down for a moment, it has helped me to stay tall and provide support for maintaining good posture during all of the driving I have been doing. There are so many great patterns, this is truly a wonderful gift.  Get your Om Zafus here

Mat Cleaner for your Yogis: I had no idea this stuff existed but I am so incredibly happy that I have it now. If you have anyone in your life who does yoga, or works with a fitness mat...get them some of this mat cleaner! It is made with natural ingredients to keep your mat healthy and it comes in a variety of different scents (I love the French Lavender) or unscented too! Get your mat clean here!

~**Artisana Organic**~

If you want to send the gift of high quality food items to your loved ones this holiday season, check out the entire catalog over at Artisana Organics.  I have loved the coconut butter, raw sesame seed tahini, and the cocoa hazelnut spread. All of their products are amazing and delicious! Give this to a foodie in your life and sit back to watch the magic happen. Hopefully, they will share in what they create! Get these goodies here

~**Adagio Teas**~

CHOCOLATE CHIP TEA!!! Seriously, the dessert teas from Adagio are unbelievable! I have sampled so many of the flavors and I am just smitten with the selection. Sometimes we just need to satisfy our sweet tooth without any calories and this is where it’s at. Get this for all of your fitfam & foodies out there.  In addition to the chocolate chip tea, I recommend the golden monkey, thai chai,
candy cane, and probably my favorite new tea: honeybush chocolate tea. Click here to get your tea!

~**Third-Pull Apparel for Those Who Lift Heavy Things**~

My husband and I own so many shirts from Third-Pull Apparel because they are AWESOME! Lets see…we have Skeletor, Haramby, Deadpool, Ron Burgundy… anyways, all of their products are great quality and really perfect for your fitfam or lifting buddies. (Click here for this awesomeness)

~**Books for the FitFam**~

Becoming a Supple Leopard 2nd Edition: The Ultimate Guide to Resolving Pain, Preventing Injury, and Optimizing Athletic Performance by Kelly Starrett:

My husband has his PhD in Exercise Physiology, CSCS, Level 3 USAW Coach and so on and so forth and this is the only book I have ever seen him both use and gift on a regular basis so yes…I recommend that you check this out for your fitness pals. Click the book for the link.

~**Glutino Gluten-Free Gift Box of Love**~

Give your GF loved ones some Glutino goodies!

Honestly, if you know anyone who is gluten-free…give them a box of Glutino goodies. I cannot tell you how many gluten-free foods I have tried in my lifetime, but one thing is for certain: Glutino is consistently the best tasting GF food items I have ever tried. I LOVE their brownies, pretzels, cookies, flour, pie crust, cornbread and muffins…and if you have a loved one who cooks gluten-free or eats gluten-free, make them up a box of Glutino goodies! Food is Love! Or at least make a goodie plate like the one below with all of the GF treats! Get Your Glutino Goodies Here!

Last but not least for the picky, picky people on your list:

~**Cratejoy**~

I have been gifting subscription boxes for a few of my loved ones for years now and it is wonderful to have a gift that keeps on giving all year long. There really are subscriptions out there for everything! So, if you have a hard-to-buy-for person, chances are that you are going to find something at Cratejoy that they will like. And there are so many different price ranges too. Plus, if you don't want to commit to an entire year, there are often single box purchasing options or quarterly boxes. The fitness boxes are incredible, but there are also snack boxes, seeds for gardening, adult coloring book subscriptions...so much! Check them out below!
