Holiday Gift Guide

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! And Hanukkah! I've compiled a list of great gifts for the yogi/pilates addicted/exercise lover/health conscious person in your life. Shop early so you don't get stressed :)

1. Yogitoes Skidless Towel
This mat sized towel is perfect for your hot yoga enthusiast. It has grippies on the underneath side, so it won't slide around on your mat...even in 105 degree heat!

2. Manduka Yoga Mat
Simply the best yoga mat of all time. Thick enough to support all your joints--no more painful tailbone in boat pose or aching knees! 100 pct slide proof. All-around awesome. This mat is worth every penny if you are a serious practitioner.

3. Harry and David Fruit of the Month Club Membership
This is not your average fruit basket. My in-laws send us H+D fruit for nearly every occasion and I have no words to describe how incredibly delicious this fruit is. It's like the best pear/peach/apple/etc. you have ever tasted in your life. Each piece of fruit is handpicked and carefully packaged to ensure a safe arrival.

4. Tiny Devotions Mala Beads
These handmade beads are simply stunning. Check them out at lovetinydevotions.com

5. Pilates Private Session Gift Certificate
Many studios offer great introductory packages for private sessions. These one on one lessons are especially helpful for anyone wanting to begin a Pilates routine in their life. Check out your local studios and if you are in the Bloomington area, shoot me an email! pilatesellie@gmail.com

6. Full Body Swedish Massage
An hour of stress release and bliss. Need I say more?

7. Monthly Subscription to Streaming Yoga Classes Online
Enjoy unlimited yoga classes in the comfort of your own home with streaming classes. Check out yogaglo.com or yogisanonymous.com

8. Lululemon Gym Bag
Lululemon is known for all of it's thoughtful little additions to their products. Think no-show pockets for your keys in your running leggings, a zipper that turns a hoodie into a pillow, thumbholes to keep your hands warm, etc. Their gym bags are no exception. So many cute and helpful little details. These bags range in price from about 98-128 dollars. They also have a great gym essential kit bag for 48.

9. Whole Foods Market Gift Certificate
Healthy, organic, local food is often quite expensive. Give the gift of health this year to someone that you love.

10. "Strong is the New Skinny" Apparel
What a fantastic message for women. Instead of trying to attain the unrealistic starving model look, let's encourage each other to be strong! Strong is sexy. As corny as it sounds, when you are strong on the outside, you feel strong on the inside. Help spread the word! Check out SINS apparel here.
