Even yoga practitioners enjoy gifts that aid in relaxation, but it's hard to know where to start, with so many yoga-related products available. While practicing yoga helps bring calm and relaxation, there are other gifts that can help deepen relaxation or bring stress relief when going to a yoga class or popping in a yoga video is not possible. Gifts like meditation accessories, aromatherapy products and certain kinds of jewelry can all help with relaxation, and be wonderful gift ideas for the yogi in your life.
Meditation Gifts
Meditation gifts are a thoughtful gift for the yoga practitioner in your life. Meditation benches and chairs are helpful in providing a place to meditate comfortably, and cushions can be moved, making them perfect for practitioners on the go. Meditative music can be played while meditating, and books and videos on meditation can help teach and guide meditation practice.
Eye Pillows
After a vigorous yoga session, a stressful day at the office or whenever life gets to be overwhelming, aromatherapy eye pillows can help relax and rejuvenate the yoga practitioner in your life. Many are made with flax seed and lavender, which work to lift mood, aid relaxation and help with sleep. Silk covers often have designs reminiscent of Indian saris and are cooling on the eye.
Prayer/Meditation Beads and Jewelry
A nice way to carry calming influences around during the day is by wearing a prayer/meditation beaded bracelet, known as mala beads, or by wearing a pendant with the Om symbol or stones known for their healing properties. Mala bead bracelets are typically made with healing and calming stones like amethyst or jade, and some have multiple stones to symbolize the chakras, or the body's energy centers. The Om is a sacred symbol that can bring calm and peace and is a reminder of spirituality.
Incense and Aromatherapy
Nag Champa or other incense scents and other aromatherapy products can be used during yoga or meditation, and can bring relaxation even during everyday activities. Aromatherapy sprays, candles or essential oils can relieve tension and bring calm. There are candles that are made from organic and recycled products and natural ingredients, and incense holders can also be made from recycled products and natural materials.
