The Best Stocking Stuffers for a Healthy, Happy Holiday

The Best Stocking Stuffers for a Healthy, Happy Holiday

Besides receiving big boxes under the Christmas tree, everyone loves to receive stocking stuffers. These little gifts can make a huge impact, because they’re small but mighty.

This year, we recommend curating your stocking stuffers so that you ensure a sustainable, healthy and budget-friendly holiday. At Healthy Human, we promote healthy living through the small actions that add up over time. This can mean creating a wellness routine or cutting back on single plastic waste. Every action creates a chain effect of positive deeds.

Keeping this in mind, here are some quick tips to consider before you go all out on your shopping spree.

How to choose the best stocking stuffers

  1. Choose refillable or long-lasting refillable gifts that promote a zero waste lifestyle. This can be anything from a pen with refillable ink cartridges to a reusable face mask.
  2. Pick healthy gifts that help prevent illness. We know that everyone has a huge stock of hand sanitizer in the cupboard, but you can help others stay well this year with comforting gifts like immune boosters, sleeping masks and massage rollers.
  3. Find healthy gifts that help people stay active. Hand weights, meal planners, jump ropes and of course Healthy Human water bottles to help others stay hydrated are thoughtful presents for any athletic, active individual.
  4. Get creative with inexpensive DIY gifts. Stocking stuffers are often small and inexpensive, but they definitely add up. Fill those stockings with wonderful healthy homemade treats.  

Read on to find our favorite stocking stuffers to surprise your friends and family with the perfect gift for their lifestyle. We’ve done our best to break down the list to fit the personality and interests of your loved ones.
