It seems many other publications have almost a stock list of picks that they recycle year after year, perhaps changing the product itself but without varying what's recommended within each category. Second, many of the gifts on this list are not going to be showing up in other guides. I'm also going to tell you how I use said product in my own daily routine, rather than just slapping up some copied-and-pasted information about it. The decisions about which gifts to include are often a sole result of reciprocal relationships between the entity (whether it be a magazine or webpage) and the manufacturer of the product. I decided to instead choose, for this gift guide, only products that I actually own and use and that I'm authentically excited about because they've changed some element of my existence, such as cooking, beauty sleep, or recovery. So…how is this holiday gift guide any different?įirst, most holiday shopping guides are curated by a team of editors rather than an individual. After all, the mailbox at the end of my driveway these days is filled daily with holiday catalogs (oh, the paper wasted)? And I'm willing to bet that the e-mails flooding my inbox that link to holiday gift guide posts are hitting your inbox daily, too.
Part of what can be difficult about this time of year, though, is that the options for gifts may seem either ho-hum, boring and pretty standard, or possibly limitless and as a result, overwhelming. While it may be tempting to pick up multi-pack of gift cards and divvy them up amongst your list, that is (sorry to say it) kind of equivalent to handing over an envelope of cash, which, while undoubtedly useful to most people, does not convey a significant abundance of care. But I think an important word here is thoughtful. For me, Christmastime is a celebration of the greatest gift ever given ( a story I detail here). Now, while I feel strongly about holidays and life in general ideally not being centered heavily around purchase and exchange of material objects, there is a certain beauty and generosity in the thoughtful giving and receiving of gifts.
