Weighted Blanket

Hands down one of my favorite things!!  This is SUCH a comfort & rapidly helps with high anxiety - still use it regularly.

Large Room Diffuser

I use this DAILY with doTerra Oils. Aromatherapy is a big part of my daily wellness routine. 

DoTerra Essential Oils

Some of the highest quality oils available - doTERRA products are Certified Pure Tested Grade®. Through our Co-Impact Sourcing® initiatives, purchases benefit families worldwide

Light Therapy Mood Lifter Light

I highly recommend light therapy for mood lifting (especially seasonally). Helps elevate moods, especially in winter, at a desk, etc.

 

Wireless Headphones

As a side/stomach sleeper these have been awesome for listening to sleep meditations! Also great for walking, yoga, meditation, and more.

Grief Slumberkin

Perfect for kids or adults when a little comfort can go a long way! He comes with a matching story book on grief.

Best Book Light

Because grievers often read at night when we can’t sleep! And we have several, my husband loves this one too!

Children's Suicide Loss Grief Book

Goodnight Mr. Vincent VanGogh by Linsey Doolittle

Bath Tray

If you are like me and a bath helps soothe or calm

Dr Teals Bath Soak

I still have this item on auto-ship as it’s an essential in my daily routine as I tend to take a relaxing bath most days to start or end the day.

Teak Shower Stool

Because showers are more “you” than a bath but standing - especially in early grief - exhausts you! This was recommended by a fellow grieving mom who doesn’t do baths

Meditation Sound Healing Bowl

Sound is SO healing & this is a good one for centering, grounding & sleep. If I could only have one sound bowl -- this would be it!

Cool or Warm Eye Mask

For puffy eyes, migraines, anxiety, stress – and because it just feels great

Tabletop Zen Garden

For serenity, mindfulness, relaxation, stress relief. Endless hours of soothing distraction.

Must have accessories for the Zen Garden

Zen Tabletop Water Fountain

A Zen way to add serenity to your suroundings - I LOVE this item

Colored Pencil Roll

Art Therapy is always a great tool to add to your self care!

The Swear Word Get Your Anger Out Coloring Book

Because sometimes we need to feel all of this and not take it out on somebody!

Mindfulness Coloring Book

Sometimes we just need pretty pictures and motivation - and these are on high quality paper suitable for framing!

The Whimsical Architect Coloring book

...And a bit of whimsy can be fun too!

Tens Unit for Pain Relief

For various aches and pains (seek a doctors advice)
