Do you struggle with thinking of what YOU want or NEED at Christmas as you are too busy focusing on what everyone ELSE wants? It is WAY too easy for mamas and those who love to GIVE GIVE GIVE to spend more than a few moments daydreaming about their own list. I have realized though, that if I don't give out some ideas, I end up being a little UNDERwhelmed on Christmas morning.... PLUS, having a December birthday, my family needs extra ideas.
Let me share a few of my favorite things in case you need ideas for your list:
- BODi - Workouts I ENJOY and make me want to get my body moving - I stream my workouts on BODi (formerly Beachbody). It is like Netflix for workouts with options for any level and any workout style. Now they have added in LIVE workout options too with BODi so I choose to follow a program for 1 week or up to 13 weeks OR, just choose a live workout to change things up! Today I am spinning on my new Myx Bike.
- Myx Bike! My body doesn't LOVE the impact of jumping as much as it used to. A spin bike allows me to pump my HR up without putting too much impact on my joints. Beachbody just merged with Myx and they are adding new content all the time. (Please contact me for the best current pricing)
- Shakeology - This is the superfood powder I use in my shakes (and sometimes my desserts). 8 different flavors to suit my mood (in vegan and whey protein options), plus nutrients I wouldn't get in an average day of eating. Plus pre and probiotics, fiber, protein and the secret to my 13+ years of a happy, healthy body.
- Ninja Foodi and Power bowl - I have tried a LOT of blenders and I LOVE a thick shake so I have worn a lot of blenders out! This one allows me to make thick shakes and to take them with me in the individual cup PLUS I can whip up an ice cream like dessert in the power bowl. Going strong after almost a year!
- Bon Cook - the silicone muffin pans are my ultimate favorite, but the silicone sheets and perforated pans are used weekly in my home. The round flexipan is another staple. I am a FAN!
- Scentsy - I love the seasonal waxes to help our home smell festive and cozy. Christmas cottage, Homestead Holiday and Eskimo kiss are a few of my favorites.
- Beauty Counter - do you want skin care and makeup you can be comfortable is GOOD for your skin and body? These products are amazing quality, safe and look fabulous. I just ordered the charcoal mask and some new face serum.
- A warm winter hat - better known in Canada as a touque! These ones come in chenille too and are super cute.
- a cozy scarf to go with the hat! Bare neck and bare ankles make me FREEZE! I am definitely a California girl when it comes to temperatures now 😂
