 <description>&lt;p&gt;Bully for you!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Practical ideas to help bring healing and connection to folk in the midst of the busy-ness and bustle of the holidays. Awesome!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Works for the rest of the year, too!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am overwhelmed with joy that 3 of the 10 have to do with massage and spa. As a massage therapist, that can only help the profession while it is helping your readers!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you lived near St Louis you would be getting a Gift Certificate from me for time in my office!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Blessings,&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Top Ten Health &amp; Wellness Gifts:  For the body, mind, and spirit.</title>
 <link>http://www.blogher.com/top-ten-health-wellness-gifts-body-mind-and-spirit</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Doesn&#039;t everyone love a gift that makes them feel good?  I sure do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These are my top ten picks for health and wellness gifts.  And if &quot;&lt;em&gt;Santa&lt;/em&gt;&quot; happens to be reading &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.blogher.com/&quot;&gt;BlogHer&lt;/a&gt; (and really, why wouldn&#039;t he/she be?), you can consider this my wish list too...&quot;&lt;em&gt;I haven&#039;t been naughty at all, just nice.&lt;/em&gt;&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, here it is...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ten&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.  Two great health and wellness gadgets, that also make great gifts...&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.walmart.com/catalog/catalog.gsp?cat=63946&quot;&gt;Blood Pressure Monitors&lt;/a&gt; and  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.drugstore.com/search/search_results.asp?N=0&amp;amp;Ntx=mode%2Bmatchallpartial&amp;amp;Ntk=All&amp;amp;srchtree=5&amp;amp;Ntt=pedometer&amp;amp;Go.x=0&amp;amp;Go.y=0&quot;&gt;Digital Pedometers&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nine&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.   Since smells have a direct affect on a person&#039;s mood, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.illuminations.com/products/H17544.jsp&quot;&gt;aromatherapy candles&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.100pureessentialoils.com/site/1562898/page/806909&quot;&gt;essential oils&lt;/a&gt; make very nice gifts. And here is an interesting new product that both eliminates odors, and adds calming scents to the air...It&#039;s called the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5913235&quot;&gt;Breathe Air Revitalizer&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eight&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.brookstone.com/shop/product.asp?product_code=528174&amp;amp;cm_ven=Compare&amp;amp;cm_cat=ChannelAdvisor&amp;amp;cm_pla=Nextag&amp;amp;cm_ite=datafeed&quot;&gt;Eye-Soothe Tension-Relieving Mask&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Seven&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.  Give the gift of calming relaxation with a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5811441&quot;&gt;Rock Garden Relaxation Fountain&lt;/a&gt;, this is a great gift and under $20.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Six&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.  This &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.homedics.com/homedics/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=SBM-200H&amp;amp;categoryId=&amp;amp;fixedCategory=&quot;&gt;Shiatsu Massaging Cushion with Heat&lt;/a&gt; looks like a comfy gift.  Here are some other Shiatsu inspired gifts...&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.homedics.com/homedics/browse/productDetail.jsp;jsessionid=E6098961F8F10618E186303D7264EEE1?productId=SP-10H&amp;amp;categoryId=&quot;&gt;Shiatsu Pillow&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.homedics.com/homedics/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=FM-CR&amp;amp;categoryId=&quot;&gt;Shiatsu Foot Massager&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Five&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. If you need to send a gift, this is a great one...&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.spawish.com/&quot;&gt;Spa Wish Gift Certificates&lt;/a&gt;.  This is a great idea because the recipient can either use their gift certificate at one of over 1,000 spas in the country (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.spawish.com/redeem.aspx&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;just use the zip-code finder&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;), or they can use it to make purchases of spa items right off of the site.  The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.spawish.com/index.cfm?point=order&amp;amp;action=moreinfo&amp;amp;id=1&quot;&gt;gift certificate&lt;/a&gt; can be sent with a variety of &quot;gift packaging&quot; (at an additional cost of $15 to $50).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Four&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.  I love this one, it&#039;s a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5913223&quot;&gt;Foldable  Massage Backrest with Light&lt;/a&gt;, and for half the price you can get this same &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4861109&quot;&gt;Massage Backrest without a light&lt;/a&gt; (great buy).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Three&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.  This is a great gift for anyone who is interested in healthy eating...The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.brookstone.com/store/thumbnail.asp?wid=11&amp;amp;cid=1105&amp;amp;sid=&amp;amp;search_type=subcategory&quot;&gt;AeroGarden&lt;/a&gt;, and surprisingly, this does not have a &quot;break the bank&quot; price-tag.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Two&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. This is the ultimate mind/body/spirit gift...&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.wilddivine.com/hraffiliate/&quot;&gt;Healing Rhythms Biofeedback System&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;One&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.  For the most unique health and wellness gift, and great for the person on your list that already has everything...&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mindmodulations.com/prodsiriu.html&quot;&gt;The Sirius Light Sound Mind Machine&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There you have it...My top ten health and wellness gifts.  If I&#039;ve missed one that you think is great, please leave the link in comments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy Shopping and Happy Holidays!&lt;/p&gt;
