What To Buy Mom For Christmas

I’ve rounded up quite a few things. You can find everything at the bottom of today’s guide but first, let me highlight a few of my top picks.

Theragun Mini

This has been on my personal wishlist for a while and recently made its way into my life. I was convinced that I would need to splurge on the larger one but I honestly couldn’t be happier with the mini. It’s amazing for breaking up shoulder tension from stress, releasing muscle soreness from a tough run/leg day, and as a bit of self-care for the body that does so much for me. I have it in the sand color and it’s gorgeous, functional, and perfectly compact.

Tripod

If there’s anything that we know, moms don’t always make it in the photo. But they take quite a few of them. This tripod is perfect whether you like to capture everything with your phone or a camera. It’s a great way to get everyone in the video opening presents on Christmas morning or around the tree for a family photo. Bonus points for my friends on a budget – it’s under $50.

Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones

I think I’ve managed to rave about these headphones every year for the last 5 because I’m still obsessed. Whether working from home, listening to a spicy audiobook, or trying to learn to meditate in 2023, these are perfect for creating your own bit of calm in the chaos.

I truly don’t think I could fly without these ever again because they just make it so much more peaceful. Working in coffee shops, editing with dogs barking in the background, or just needing a bit of extra calm, noise-canceling headphones are a game changer.

Audiobook Subscription

This is perfect for the woman who wants to read more in 2023, just joined a book club, is looking to level up her self-development game or maybe she’s just in need of a bit of escape. Booktok has my TBR list overflowing with recommendations.

Now, of course, there’s the traditional audiobook option – audible. If your mom loves original content and enjoys both popular and obscure stories, audible is great. There’s additional free content available on top of the monthly credit option.

For the more casual listener who also enjoys supporting small businesses, Libro.Fm is fantastic. You can choose the bookstore you support every month with your purchase. It’s around $15 per month for your credit with an additional 30% off audiobook purchases as well as gifts. This is one of my favorite things to gift as well as to use because I’m getting to support some of my favorite small businesses in my community.

Self-Heating Coffee Cup

For the mom who is always re-heating her cup of coffee or forever setting it down only to need a fresh, hot cup again, the ember cup is perfect. On its own, it keeps the contents warm but has a wireless coaster to charge your cup. Perfect for keeping hot chocolate, tea, and coffee warm this winter without the needing to put your cup on a warmer at your desk.
