Eid Gift Guide 2021: Wellness Edition
Gift-giving is definitely one of my love languages. It just warms my heart to make someone happy with a gift and there are always good reasons to give, whether it is to say sorry, to say thank you, on Eid, or for no reason at all!
I created this Eid gift guide with 6 categories, listing items from low to high in price points. The last category is for the minimalists; those that prefer to gift experiences and adventures. Whatever category you choose from, the most important thing behind gift-giving is intention. Seek Allah’s pleasure first and foremost and I pray Allah increases your good deeds manifold.
Some gift ideas are inspired by wellness, healthy living, to encourage sustainability and others are purely indulgent self-care tools.
I have purchased and used a handful of the items personally over the past 5 years and included things I have not yet tried (but would love to one day!). I have placed asterisks next to the ones I HAVE tried to highlight that I can definitively vouch for the product.
