Valentine’s Day Wellness Gift Box
By Michelle Harris
This Valentine’s Day is a great time to keep wellness in mind! It’s really easy to create your own wellness box for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift! This is a relaxing and thoughtful gift that provides a personalized wellness experience for that special someone in your life.
Start with box, nice bag or reusable container. This way the container is part of the gift and can be enjoyed and repurposed. For mine, I found a decorative hat box that worked well with my lavender, pink and purple color theme.
Start your box with something unique! Instead of a traditional flower arrangement, I found these beautiful floral sage sticks from Mama
Wunderbar. These sage sticks arrive with fresh flowers and after the flowers dry, they can be burned along with the sage stick. Many people say that burning sage helps them with anxiety and sleep. They smell great and look very colorful in our Valentine’s wellness box.
Always include some healthy and yummy treats in your box! Sambucol Black Elderberry helps to support a healthy immune system and it
tastes great! For my box, I included a bottle of Sambucol Black Elderberry Gummies and I also mixed some gummies with my homemade heart-shaped chocolates for a fun snack mix! For a little extra sparkle, simply add some edible sparkle sugar to make your Valentine’s Day treats shine! Heart-shaped vegan cookies are another great addition for any Valentine’s Day wellness box.
What wellness box would be complete without some relaxing spa gifts? Candles are a must, so I chose these beautiful lavender candles made from soy! A soft relaxing eye mask and a pink loofa provide a special pampering touch to our Valentine’s box. Essential oils and
aromatherapy sprays also make great additions.
Ideas of what to include in your Valentine’s Day Box:
If your special someone is stepping up their fitness game, something high tech like a Fitbit is a great gift to include.
If your special someone is alcohol-free, you can still celebrate with a delicious alcohol-free sparkling wine, such as this one from Noughty! It’s a perfect refreshing beverage for our festive wellness box. With fewer calories and sugar than conventional sparkling wine, it makes a great toast!
The best gifts are always the ones you personalize with things that you know your special someone will love!
Show how much you care with a great Valentine’s Day wellness box that will never be forgotten!
And to offer you one more treat that you can include in this very special Valentine’s Day Box as shown by Michelle Harris,
here is the recipe Michelle sent me on how to add one more amazing– and TASTY– element to this box.
It’s easy to make a healthy treat this Valentine’s Day. Sambucol Black Elderberry Gummies are a delicious treat and they help support a healthy immune system. Combined with non-dairy white and dark chocolate, they make the perfect Valentine’s Day treat!
Ingredients:
1 cup dark chocolate chips (feel free to try sugar-free such as Lily’s)
1 cup dairy-free white chocolate chips (Nestle makes allergen-free white chocolate which is vegan)
1/2 cup Sambucol Black Elderberry Gummies
2 TBS dairy-free cream
Fine, sparkling decorative sugar for garnish
Assembly:
Melt dark chocolate with 1 TBS dairy-free cream over a double boiler until smooth. Quickly spread on parchment and allow to become firm. Use cookie cutters or cake decorating shapes to cut into hearts. Garnish some with decorative sugar.
Repeat the same steps with white chocolate.
Allow the chocolate to become completely firm, then add Sambucol Black Elderberry gummies to the mix for a healthy and delicious treat!
