Healthy Holiday Stocking Stuffers List 2017

By

When I was little on Christmas morning, I always looked forward to opening my stocking. I’d find it filled with fun little toys and candies that I loved. Now that I’m all grown up and a parent of my own, I’m really getting that magical feeling again this holiday season. I cannot wait to watch Harley grow up over the years and see the excitement in her eyes on Christmas morning too.

Of course she isn’t eating candy now, but as she gets older one thing I won’t be putting in her stocking are any of those holiday candies filled with high fructose corn syrup, TBHQ, artificial colors and GMO ingredients. Big brands like Hershey’s, Ghirardelli, Mars, and Nestle have been guilty of this! Thankfully there are much better options available nowadays.

Below you’ll find some of my favorite stocking stuffers… everything from candy bars, to toys, to spa-day treats. Many of these would also make great gifts for your neighbors, your mailman, and all the other people in your life that you want to show appreciation for.

Ask Santa to stuff your stocking with goodies like this…

Creamy organic truffles… a great replacement for those Lindt Truffles full of artificial flavors!

Fun holiday-themed organic chocolate bars or a 4-pack of some of the yummiest organic chocolate bars around. 

Organic candy-cane lollipops instead of those made with artificial dyes and GMOs!

Melt in your mouth organic mini chocolate peppermints… these are soooo delicious.

Adorable and cuddly… organic stuffed animals and blankets! 

Pamper yourself with sweet-smelling peppermint lotion and organic pure castile soaps! 

Natural dry brush to buff the skin and stimulate the lymphatic system… makes your skin super soft and is healthy too! 

Soak in a tub full of these lavender mint bath salts with natural sea salt crystals and essential oils… so relaxing! 

Simple and basic… organic liquid coconut oil makes the BEST natural makeup remover. 

Mix up some Homemade Peppermint Sugar Scrub: 1 cup coconut palm sugar, 1/2 cup melted coconut oil, and 8-12 drops peppermint essential oils.

Convenient thyme oil spray to sanitize your hands when dining out! 

Simple olive oil moisturizing soap… a favorite at my house! 

Keep chapped lips away with this organic chapstick set made with almond oil, jojoba oil, and hemp oils.

Class pass to a studio or gym… Almost everyone has that yoga studio or workout class they have been meaning to go to. 

Journal with a dedicated first page handwritten by yourself… for the creative person in your life! 

Personally curated recipe book… print out your favorite recipes and assemble them in a handmade cookbook. A small photo album makes this easy. Make sure to title your book and give it a personalized cover! 

Organic Himalayan Raw Honey… the first honey with the Glyphosate Residue Free certification label! 

Powerful superfoods like organic goji berries and chia seeds. Get 10% off organic maca powder with the code FOODBABE here… great at reducing stress! 

Glass straws for sipping lemon water and green juice. 

A copy of my book, The Food Babe Way, for anyone in your life that’s still eating processed food.

Organic tea gift set… free of harmful pesticides and chemicals! 

Potted indoor plants such as little succulents, bamboo, or air plants that are easy to care for. A pot of fresh herbs would be amazing as well! 

Grow your own food at home with these organic seed packets! 

I hope this helps you create Christmas memories with your loved ones! Did you see anything on this list that you’d love to find in your stocking? Share this list and you just might get what you’ve been hoping for.

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
