Jingle bells, jingle bells….

Today we are starting a 3 part holiday series, kicking it all off with our holiday gift guide!

Yes, we are starting the holidays early because we want to encourage intentionality and thoughtfulness with our gift giving this year! Because as you know, we believe that healthy living encompasses more than just what you put in your mouth and for this episodes sake, we are encouraging a stress free, joyful and thoughtful holiday season!

In today’s episode, we share a bit about some of our favorite ethical and fair trade companies and how your purchase gives back to really create sustainability in the marketplace.

From beauty and skincare and kitchen gadgets to healthy stocking stuffer nibbles and apparel, we’ve pretty much got a little something for everyone on your list. Plus we spill some of our favorite ways to decrease the holiday “buying” stress so you can really relax into and enjoy the reason for the season (and keep those adrenal glands healthy!).

  7. Elaine says:

    I have BeautyCounter makeup and Primal Palate seasonings both on my stocking stuffer list!

  8. Laura says:

    Wishing for a new Chef’s knife this year! My mismatched Costco/Bed Bath & Beyond knife collection is very sad. And definitely want to try that lip balm and lip sheer 🙂 Xo

  9. Katie B says:

    Wishing for some more essential oils to use daily and keep my thyroid in check! Which builds on my other wish that I have to work for- better health and maintained hormones.

  10. Cameo Pierce says:

    All steps completed! Although, I don’t have an iPhone but I DID subscribe to the podcast in the Pocket Cast app! On my wishlist this year is the Beautycounter charcoal mask and holiday palate!

  11. Tara says:

    I completed all the steps and looking over the Holiday Gift Guide reminded me of a few things I need to add to my list for Santa – BeautyCounter charcoal bar, Primal Palate spices, and a box of the maple Rx bars heart eyes emoji
    Thanks for sharing your health journey!

  12. Whitney Eves says:

    First let me say, I have LOVED your podcasts! What a gift – thank you! For Christmas this year I’m totally asking my husband for a subscription to Dry Farm Wines mentioned in episode 13 as one of Seasons favorite things she is loving lately. I’d also be pretty stoked if some primally pure and beauty counter products made there way into my stocking 😉

  13. Bonnie Pritchard says:

    I am at that point in my life where I am purging everything (cheap) we bought for our first apartment and replacing it (slowwwlllyy) with better, and fewer pieces. I’m also doing the same thing with my closet. Something I’m asking for this season is a Le Creuset Dutch oven, a food processor and new leather booties. Quality vs. quantity for the win!

  14. Erin says:

    As a type 1 I’m definitely asking for the Autoimmune Wellness Handbook, mini bundt pans, a waffle maker (both for those for low-carb breakfast recipes), an Insta-Pot and the All American Paleo Table! A subscription to Dry Farms Wines would be nice too. Wow, I have a list this year! I know you asked for one, but I can’t choose! Thanks for entering me in the giveaway!

  15. Anna says:

    All the steps are complete! This is such a fun giveaway! I am really looking forward to getting into the holiday spirit! 🙂 I am hoping to up my essential oils game. So, a diffuser is on my holiday "wish list!"

  16. Ashley says:

    I am so excited about all of this! I love the idea of being more intentional rather than "buying to buy". Thanks for all of the ideas you and Justine offered! After listening to this episode, safe skincare products from Beauty Counter and Primally Pure have been added to my wish list!

  17. Erin says:

    Your most recent podcast made me SO EXCITED about the upcoming holidays. One thing on my holiday wish list is a milk frother…so that I can attempt to make lattes or cappuccinos at home!

  18. Janell says:

    Wishing for a camera backpack for hiking! Or some new clothes.????

  19. Kristina says:

    The new iPhone 7 in rose gold is top on my wish list…
    Loving the Colorful Eats podcast ladies!

  20. Heather says:

    Ah! I am even more excited for the Holiday’s thanks to your podcast????

    My wish list consists of new glassware storage for the kitchen and the vain side of me is wishing for an amazing spa day!

    Happy Holiday’s sweet girls

  21. Rachel Brown says:
