As we head into a holiday season that’s often so centered on showing everyone else you appreciate them, here’s a reminder to also take some time to celebrate you. This can look as simple as setting boundaries, going on a short walk, journaling, or taking on a new hobby. You can also treat yourself to little luxuries and self-care gifts that help you hit pause, rest, and recenter. Below, you’ll find all sorts of delightful relaxing gift ideas for you (or a loved one, if you’re feeling generous), including SELF editor-recommended skin care, massagers, and our editor in chief’s favorite backpack. There are products that guide your attention to the present (think: binoculars, a pottery kit, and a vibrator), as well as other fun indulgences to support your wellbeing.
