Gift Ideas For Her // 2023

Mother, daughter, friend, sister-friend, aunt, and sister—she is full of multitudes. She is the family calendar coordinator, the entertaining aunt, the considerate friend, and, let's face it, probably really exhausted. I created this gift guide with HER in mind! She enjoys receiving gifts that are sentimental, useful, and both fashionable and timeless.

Health, laughter, friendship, and love are among the finest luxury items in life, and they are undoubtedly free. However, occasionally, an extravagant gift can be given as a heartfelt tribute to the woman we love the most. This season, if you're seeking to spoil her, go no farther than this ultimate list of luxurious gift suggestions. Giving special presents to people we love is a wonderful way to express our sincere gratitude and happiness this holiday season!

There is nothing around save for the soft, desert wind. You. Are. Free. From this defining vision was born SANTAL 33: a perfume that touches the vast and wild universality of this dream... that intoxicates... It combines a mix of cardamom and notes of iris and violet, which crackle in the formula. Added to this smoking wood alloy (Australian sandalwood, cedarwood) are some spicy, leathery, musky notes, giving this perfume its signature and addictive comforting scent.

  22. Human Design Reading With Lisa Anderson Shaffer- HumanDesign is the best new tool for diving DEEP into the layers of your soul! Understanding your unique design is the beginning of an exciting process that will serve as a grounding presence for you throughout your life! Human Design is an introspective approach to self-discovery illuminating how to best make decisions, work together, communicate, and live with ease based upon your birth date, birthplace, and time. Your design serves as a mystical blueprint with experiments to carry out over time to be more in alignment with the natural flow of your energy. What Lisa loves most about Human Design is that it is built upon the principle that our bodies exist to be in service to us & our minds exist to be in service to the greater good. When we rely too heavily on our minds and logic to make our own decisions, we ignore the inherent cues that live within our bodies. A framework that fosters a connection to the body supports relaxation, stress reduction, & ease. This ability to trust the cues originating from your body will gently unfold over time. It is through experimenting with your design that this ability is illuminated. Human Design also offers the perspective that there is no separation in your energy put forth between work & personal life. Pursuing what lights you up personally feeds your professional success. It's all connected & your energy is best served when you view it as a whole. It’s so fascinating and I highly recommend purchasing a 30 minute or 60 minute Human Design reading including an in-depth look at your chart & custom 50+ page digital PDF booklet outlining your Human Design ! The best gift for the gal who has everything!!
