Holiday Gift Guide for the Yoga Lover in Your Life

As anyone who is into yoga knows, yoga is more than a type of exercise. It is a philosophy, mindset and lifestyle that you practice both on and off the mat. So, if there is a yoga lover in your life, odds are, they would love to receive some yoga inspired gifts this holiday season!

According to Very Well Fit,

It can be a smart move to choose gifts from more than one category. Choosing a gift that actively supports their practice (like a new mat) and a gift that supports incorporating the principles of yoga into daily life (like a yoga journal) can be the perfect way to show that you care. The same goes for purchasing a gift for your yoga instructor–combining something they can use in their studio with something that will support their personal growth journey at home can be a great way to create the perfect gift bag.

Since I am a yoga lover myself, here are some of my favorite yoga lifestyle items, for you to share with someone special in your life!

Malas

Every yogi needs a set (or three!) of Mala beads. A mala represents your intentions as you go into meditation. These can be made of wood, or a stone that carries a special meaning. Different stones are good for different types of spiritual practice.

Personally, I love my Amazonite mala from Prana Heart. Amazonite represents money, luck and success in life. This is a powerful stone that can benefit the wearer.

In addition to Malas, Prana heart also has many bracelets, necklaces, and other yoga inspired jewelries available on their site. I have shopped with them for years, and everything in their shop is beautiful and well made.

We also have a traditional wood mala available on our Shop from Millenial Mom.

If this natural look fits more with your Yogi's style, we always appreciate your business.

Subscription to a Yoga or Meditation App

Another great gift for the Yogi in your life is a subscription to a yoga or meditation app that they can easily use for yoga routines and guided meditations. This comes in handy when you want to do yoga or meditate either outdoors or in the comforts of your home.

Yogis are always looking for new poses to incorporate into their yoga routines, and new guided meditations to help them go deeper within spiritually. An app is a convenient way to keep all things yoga organized on your phone.

Two of my favorite Yoga channels on YouTube also have their own apps available. A subscription to either of these (or your own yogi's favorite app) would make a great, useful gift.

Yoga Journal

The yogi in your life is sure to love a yoga journal. Here, they can write their thoughts, make note of poses they are working on, and keep track of their yoga journey. For something beautiful and personalized, you can buy a yoga journal from Etsy, with many of them being hand made.

Journaling is a great habit to get into to work on your mindset, so it is common for people who do yoga to do journaling as well. These are both positive habits to improve your life, and anyone on a self-improvement path is sure to enjoy this!

Yoga Artwork

Yoga inspired artwork is another great gift idea for the yoga lover in your life. It can spruce up their yoga studio or the rest of their home. Each time they see the artwork, it will help bring them back to a sense of focus on their practice. This can be especially helpful during stressful times.

You can find lots of great yoga wall art on discount retailers like Temu, or in a shop in your local area that specializes in artworks. These beautiful pictures are sure to inspire the yoga lover in your life each time they see them.

Yoga Fitness Gear

New yoga gear is something that any yogi will appreciate, since they are likely wearing their yoga gear almost every day. Even the best quality clothing will wear out if you wear it frequently. So, adding a new outfit to their closet is something that they are likely to appreciate. We have a lot of yoga gear for sale in our shop.

You can shop other popular yoga brands too, like Alo Yoga or prAna.

In addition to clothing they can wear on the mat, you can look for yoga inspired fashions for daily wear as well. Something that incorporates yoga symbolism, or sustainable fashions are great choices.

Hopefully, these ideas will get you inspired for your holiday shopping, and help you pick out a great gift for the yoga lover in your life! If you don't know exactly what to pick, have no fear. Many of these sites offer gift cards as well, so they can pick out something perfect for themselves.
