Holiday Gift Ideas for Wellness

It’s that time again: With Black Friday and Cyber Monday right around the corner, it’s time to get your holiday shopping gameplan ready. Today I’m sharing some of my favorite things that your health-conscious friends and family will really love.

Kuru Shoes

Kuru shoes have been my go-to favorites for awhile now. Honestly they feel like a hug for your feet. They’re especially good for people with issues like plantar fasciitis, heel pain, bunions and more. I love LOVE the Triple Max Ion and the Atom 2 for cardio and gym workouts and the .Atom Fusion is my go-to walking shoe. They’re cushioned and supportive in all the right places, without sacrificing performance. Kuru doesn’t stop at athletic shoes. They also make cute slippers, slides and even hiking boots.

From November 22 until December 1, save 10% off the entire Kuru website and 75% off last-chance styles.

Gruns Grinch Snacks

Gruns Grinch Snacks are such a fun stocking stuffer! They’re superfood greens gummies that not only taste great but also support gut health, boost energy and immunity, recovery and cognition. After just a few days I can totally tell a difference. The individual packs easily go wherever you do and are especially great for travel.

Order your supply of Gruns here and take advantage of their Black Friday sale going on NOW!

Lumen Metabolism Tracker

I’ve used my Lumen Metabolism Tracker for years now and from it, I’ve learned SO much about the lifestyle tweaks I needed to make to feel my best. It helps track your macros and workouts and makes recommendations on exactly what to eat and when to achieve metabolic flexibility resulting in fat loss and/or weight loss depending on your goals.

Until December 1 only, Lumen is 50% off! PLUS save an additional 15% when you use code MARCIAK. Check it out and order yours HERE.

Cozy Zero Performance Wool

I never saw myself as a wool kind of girl when it comes to activewear. I suspected it’d be hot and/or itchy. The truth is, Cozy Zero products are none of the above. The ultra-fine Merino wool is soft, breathable and totally comfortable for workouts, hiking, running and more. It’s moisture wicking and odor-resistant properties make it a great choice for activities in a variety of climates.

Great Lakes Wellness Collagen

If you’ve read my blog for awhile, you know I’ve been a fan of collagen for many years. I start every day with a scoop of collagen in my coffee. Collagen is a protein that forms the connective tissue found all over the body. It plays a key role in maintaining healthy looking hair, skin, and nails. It can help build muscle mass and supports an active lifestyle. As we age, the body produces less collagen. leading to brittle hair, weak nails, wrinkles, joint pain and even gut issues. While collagen can be found in foods like bone broth, I find supplementing with collagen powder is an easy and convenient way to increase my collagen, protein and amino acid intake.

Dr Alot Creatine Gummies

I’ve been a huge fan of strength training for many many years and as I age, keeping muscle on my body is a priority. Creatine supports muscle growth, enhances recovery and boosts endurance. I’ve used many creatine drinks over the years but these gummies are my fave. Try them here.

What are some of your favorite gifts to give and receive this season?

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
