THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WELLNESS GIFTS

A sweet little chunk of time at Chewton Glen Hotel and Spa is a most beautiful wellness gift, to be sure. It’s a perfect gift for someone you love (including yourself!)

Set on a beautiful country estate, at the edge of the New Forest, in Hampshire, England, you can choose to stay at the traditional country house or a contemporary treehouse suite, both luxurious and tranquil.

The world-class spa at Chewton Glen pampers with a massive ozone-treated hydrotherapy spa pool, aromatherapy saunas, crystal steam rooms and twelve individual treatment rooms offering no fewer than 50 different treatments and holistic therapies.

There’s plenty of space for Forest Bathing in the ancient woods here. Stroll through the estate’s manicured mature gardens. Gaze out at the Needles, rising up from the sea at Naish Beach.

There’s a proper lawn for croquet, a 9-hole golf course, gorgeous  tennis courts, indoor and outdoor heated pools, archery, buggy riding and duck herding.

It’s a perfect place to switch off and replenish.

The holidays can be tough times for people who are coping with loss, illness and other personal challenges. And choosing the right gift to support your friends and loved ones who are especially tender during these times can be a challenge in and of itself.

OptionB, an organization devoted to helping people build resilience in the face of adversity and recovery, produced a wonderful set of cards, in partnership with Papyrus, that acknowledges the special need for understanding, love and support.

Simply click the card to email it to a loved one directly from this page. You’ll be able to add a personalized note before you send. You can send as many as you’d like. And if you want to buy a paper card to send in the mail, you can purchase them online here or at a Papyrus store near you.

And check out OptionB’s program for the holidays, #OptionBThere, which helps people be there for friends and loved ones who are struggling, offering tools to help family, friends, and community build resilience too. Here, you can read and share personal stories, join groups for solidarity and support, and find information from experts.

This holiday season, Modern Loss curated its first annual holiday gift guide, with ideas for those who might view this season as more of a thing to endure than one to celebrate.

From scalp whisks to s’mores to soups that arrive at your doorstep, these gifts for the grieving say ‘the holidays are rough, but I love you.’ Think dart boards and Solar-Powered Rainbow Maker, a badass pair of socks, a monthly delivery of chocolate sourdough, a rockstar RBG pillow.

Check out these beautiful, thoughtful gifts for someone who's living with loss. And if that person is you, by all means, treat yourself.

Attitude may not be everything, but these genius “I’m a Delicate Fucking Flower” socks just might be.

Draw strength and comfort from the beautifully designed plush velvet RGB Throw Pillow. Flip it over for the color-changing sequins. Lean back upon it as you get inspired reading the Notorious RBG book.

And check out Modern Loss: Candid Conversation About Grief, by Modern Loss co-founders Rebecca Soffer and Gabrielle Birkner. It’s a wonderful for book for anyone facing loss -- which is really everyone, sooner or later.

Now that it’s legal in many places, Apothecarry founder Whitney Beatty asks, “If my liquor is in my bar, my cigars are in my humidor, and my wine is in the wine fridge, why the heck is my herb in a shoebox in the closet?!”

The Apothecarry Travel Case keeps high quality stash away from the things that damage it most -- light and air. From the low odor wood of the box, to the airtight gaskets found on the food grade airtight strain jars and silicone coated non-stick dab jars, stash stays as fresh as the day you purchased it. It’s the perfect gift for your perfectly chill loved one.
