Tis’ the season for gifting! For the first time ever I’ve put together a Jenny Approved Holiday Gift Guide, and I’m so excited to share it with you!
Below you will find gifts for all the wellness lovers in your life, suitable for every budget. Everything on this list is something I use and love, or would love to receive (hint, hint Tim)…
Gifts for the Healthy Foodie
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil: great EVOO is a staple in my kitchen for both its health and flavor benefits and is a wonderful way of taking your cooking to the next level. The EVOO Guy is my go-to for small batch, excellent quality EVOO.
- Hydroponic Indoor Herb Garden: I probably have the least green fingers in the world (proven by my failed pandemic gardening project), but even I can keep herbs alive! This hydroponic indoor herb garden is a great addition for even the smallest of kitchens and is an eco-friendly way of adding the taste and health benefits of fresh herbs to your meals.
- Healthy Dark Chocolate: to know me is to know my love (obsession?) with dark chocolate. It’s packed with mood, brain and beauty boosting benefits and is the perfect healthy treat. Hu Kitchen is a wellness lover’s favourite, and this variety pack includes something for all tastes.
- Fancy Salt Gift Set: salt often gets a bad rap in health literature, but it shouldn’t! Great quality salt provides much needed minerals for adrenal support and even just the tiniest amount can up level the simplest of dishes.
- Gourmet Bone Broth: By now, chicken and beef bone broth have become pretty well known, but what about ostrich or buffalo? Brooks Broth is my new favourite bone broth and I love the varieties they offer, including ostrich, buffalo, chicken and beef, plus low FODMAP friendly options and even bone broth for your pets!

Gifts for the Fitness Fan
- Oura Ring: it took me a long time to buy an Oura ring, but now I can’t live without it for the data it provides on my activity, stress and sleep levels. Once you place an order they will send out a ring sizer so you don’t have to guess your loved one size, and they have just launched a new design that is sleeker than the original.

- Weighted Vest: if you follow me on Instagram you’ll know that I always wear my weighted vest when I am out for a walk to help with metabolic health and bone density. It’s also a great way to add weight to your at home workouts
- Vibrating Foam Roller: this vibrating foam roller was actually one of the best gifts Tim and I have ever received – the difference it makes to post workout (or just a tough day) recovery is amazing!
- R+Co Dry Shampoo: a great stocking stuffer for any fitness enthusiast, this dry shampoo was recommended to me by my colorist and is perfect for those days when you break a sweat, but don’t want to wash your hair.
- Crystal Water Bottle: for the fitness lover who has everything, this crystal water bottle makes the best luxury gift and uplevels any gym bag.
Gifts for the Skincare Lover
- Higher Dose Red Light Mask: I’ve asked many of my beauty expert friends which at home gadget actually work, and the one they all agree on is a red light mask. I love this one from Higher Dose, and you can save 15% using my link.
- Agent Nateur Holi(mane): I only recently discovered this blend of beauty boosting collagen and pearl powder, and I love it. It’s beautifully packaged too, and looks great next to the blender in my kitchen!

Gifts for the Sleepyhead
- Bed Cooling System: Tim and I have used the Sleepme Cube for years as it helps keep us cool at night, promoting healthy, restorative sleep. We love it as each side of the bed can be kept at different settings depending on the season and personal preferences.
- Weighted Blanket: a weighted blanket is a must in my anti-anxiety toolkit, and I love how comforting and stress relieving it can be.
- Bucky Eye Mask: my ‘can’t live without’ eye mask for years I never sleep without this eye mask and keep a number of them at home for travel too. They also come in a ton of cute colors and designs!
- Essential Oil Diffuser: I’m not the biggest fan of essential oils, but cannot sleep without the scent of lavender oil in my bedroom. Diffusers also help with dry skin at night too, so this gift is a win win.
- Desmond & Dempsey PJ’s: I bought a pair of these Desmond & Dempsey pajamas for a photoshoot, and now they are my favourite pair! They are so comfortable but classy too and come in a number of different designs and styles. Use this link to save $20, and they have free shipping to the US too.
