Christmas Gift Ideas and Suggestions

By Dr. "Santa" Myatt

Forget "Black Friday"! (That doesn’t even SOUND good, does it?).

If you hate crowded shopping malls as much as I do, or feel stumped about what to give for holiday gifts, here are my recommendations for unique gifts to consider and there’s still plenty of time to order for holiday gifting. Best of all, you can browse and order from the warmth and comfort of home — in your jammies if you want to! — instead of fighting the crowds. Here are my top picks for holiday gifting.
 

Music Boxes and Musical Jewelry Boxes.

You really need to check these out! A thoughtful and unique gift for both men and women. These are top-quality gifts at most affordable prices. The music works are Swiss made and sound beautiful. Many of the boxes are fine inlaid wood designs, and you can pick the box and musical tune separately, creating a custom combination.

They have a "Listening Station" where you can hear the tunes played (very neat!), and a custom engraving service if you want to further personalize your gift.

Prices range from under $20 to big bucks, but you can give a fabulous gift for $40-$100. An excellent and delightful gift for both men and women, and perfect for the person who already "has everything." (Bet they don’t have one of these)!

Their shipping is lightening-fast. You’ll have your gift in a couple of days. Use the "sort by price" feature if you’re looking for a unique gift under $50. Order through this special Wellness Club member link and get an additional 10% off the already-affordable prices: Wellness Club members and HealthBeat subscribers save an additional 10% off at Music Box Attic on any purchase by using Coupon Code "percent10".

Sink and/or Shower Water Purifier.

Know someone who is still buying bottled water? (Or worse, drinking unknown tap water?) Or showering in chemical-filled municipal H2O? Aquasana makes a nifty sink water purifier with a sleek design and easy installation. Ditto for a shower-head water purifier. Best of all, these water filters and purifiers have received the highest ratings for quality.

A very thoughtful and healthful gift. Head over there today if you want to grab a "special" they’re featuring: both sink and shower purifiers in a smokin’ deal combo package. They also feature an auto-ship filter replacement service, very nice since all water purifiers must have regular filter changes to function optimally (and many people forget this important step).

Organic Salmon and Seafood.

We all know that salmon is healthy, but only if it is wild caught Pacific salmon. Vital choice has some of the finest salmon and seafood available anywhere, delightfully packaged for easy gifting. Recommended by Dr. Perricone, Dr. Christiane Northrup and of course by Dr. Myatt! Not cheap, but some of the highest quality seafood and other organic products money can buy.

Flowers, Live Plants, Gift Baskets and More.

This is my favorite flower delivery company, but I hesitate to call them just "flower delivery" because they have so much more. Great gift baskets, including wine and cheese baskets, plus living plants that will be treasured long after the holidays are past.

Best of all, you can shop from hundreds of arrangements from home and most can be delivered the very same day. (I wouldn’t recommend waiting until the day before Christmas to order, however). This is a great resource to keep on hand for other holidays, birthdays, sympathy, get well, anniversaries.

They have been voted "Best Online Florist" a number of times. Shop for Flowers, live plants and gourmet gift baskets.

aps A Cruise Vacation:

Looking for Something Really Special? How about a luxury cruise vacation? Whether to local ports of call like Hawaii or Alaska, or someplace warm like the Caribbean or Bahamas, or a fabulous tour of Europe, cruising is the preferred way to vacation.

Unpack only once and see many beautiful ports of call, enjoy world-class buffets and entertainment daily, and be pampered by the finest luxury spas by day.

Search cruises by length, location, price (and these folks offer a "low price guarantee," meaning you won’t find a great cruise for less anywhere).  Imagine how surprised your special someone would be to receive tickets for a cruise vacation!

Nifty Gifts Under $20.

Got a list of friends you’d like to gift, but can’t afford to spend a fortune on each one? Collections has a large selection of nifty gifts, nothing over $20. You’re sure to find something suitable for the "friends" list. Their gifts also make great stocking-stuffers.

A note of caution: the gifts are good quality, as represented in the catalogue. But they come in funky, junky Chinese-made boxes and bags. Expect to re-box these items to show them in their best light. Other than that, this is a great place for inexpensive presents (including some fabulous, inexpensive gifts for kids).

Order through this link and get an additional 15% off any total over $65 — but hurry! These special prices are only good until Nov. 30th, 2008.

Remember Our US Troops for Christmas.

Head on over to Healthy Troops and send a service man or woman a care package for the Holidays If you send a package now, they will still receive it in time for Christmas. You don’t have to personally know a troop; we’ve got lots of them signed up and requesting these packages.

Or (I’m doing this), send a care package to a troop on behalf of someone else, a charitable donation in their name. We’ll include a certificate that shows what was sent on their behalf, and any thank-you note we receive will be forwarded to them as well.

Don’t Forget Fifi and Fido!

Organic and healthy treats for your favorite four-legged friends. No kidding, they have a special "Christmas gift selection" for cats and dogs. Wellness Club Members and HealthBeat subscribers save an additional 5% through this link: Save 5% on your first order at Only Natural Pet Store!
