New Year/New You: 5 Things to Give a Friend (or yourself) this January

Hello 2025! Tis the season for renewed energy and ambitious goals. Jumpstart your goals - or a friend's - with a few thoughtful gifts to inspire motivation...

Personalized Journal or Planner

A great journal could be the key to starting off on the right foot. Look for one that fits your style - chic & modern, colorful, minimalist, etc. Are you a habit tracker? Do you like a bullet journal? Or do you prefer a blank page?

Fitness Tracker

Are you even taking steps if you're not counting them?? We love the Apple Watch to daily step counting (fav feature is the auto prompt if you forget to set it), but the watch can be $$. Check out this shoelace pedometer or this watch-like fitness tracker if you're looking for something simpler. Alternately, check out the Oura Ring or Whoop you want something full service - to track sleep, activity, etc.

Mindfulness Tools

Are you one mindfulness deck away from complete Zen? Doubtful, but cards like this can help prompt inner calm. We also love this Le Labo candle & NEST diffuser to help create a calming environment.

Water Bottle with Motivational Markings

There is nothing new about this water bottle, but it is effective. Fill it up in the morning (pro tip - add a bunch of ice) and mark your progress throughout the day. Do you need a $25 water bottle to drink more water? No. Will it help motivate you? Maybe.

Workout Gear

A great outfit can inspire & motivate. Looking & feeling good can be the first steps to getting sweaty. We are eternally loyal to these Alo leggings (they skim and smooth over lumps & bumps while providing just a tinge of compression). We're partial to the Lululelmon classic Swiftly Tech T as it's lightweight and pairs well with most pants. And of course, don't forget your JOJU for men or women. The ultimate long sleeved workout shirt - breathable, quick drying, sweat wicking and sun protective.

Happy gifting - let us know how the resolutions go!
