Shopping for friends is a tough task on its own. When you have a friend who enjoys natural products, however, the task can become increasingly more difficult as you look around for proper gift ideas. The good news is that there are far more options out there than you may initially believe. To help you find the perfect gift for your friend, let’s dive into some natural gift suggestions that you may not have considered!
Help them venture into new territory with the gift of CBD.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid that is derived from hemp. Unlike its well-known relative, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD is said to bestow similar effects to THC without the psychoactive side effects. For those who are looking to achieve a greater sense of ease, this may be a great product to try.
That being said, there is a lack of research regarding whether or not CBD can actually produce the experiences that many are touting online. If you do give your friend CBD, it’s important that you speak to them about talking to their doctor to learn more about the risks and side effects (as well as any potential medication interactions).
To get them started, you can look for CBD distillate for sale. “Distillate” is just a fancy term for CBD oil, which can be used in a similar manner to tinctures or even incorporated into edibles or other products. When shopping for the perfect product, make sure to pay attention to the type of CBD you’re looking at.
For example, full-spectrum distillate will have terpenes and other compounds that may lend themselves to the entourage effect. Meanwhile, CBD distillate made from isolate will only have CBD. You should also only shop from CBD brands that use organic hemp, feature no contaminants (like pesticides or heavy metals), and can offer a third-party lab analysis sheet.
Buy them houseplants to help them brighten up their space.
Houseplants don’t seem like a big deal, but having a natural plant in your space can go a long way. Research shows that houseplants can improve air quality, help you reduce stress and anxiety, and even act as a natural humidifier. Put simply, having planters in your home can go a long way to helping you achieve greater health and wellness, regardless of what types of plants may speak most to you.
Even better, you don’t have to have a green thumb to ensure that your friend enjoys their plant gift. Just do a quick Google search for “gifts plants“, look for options that will thrive in any environment like succulents or spider plants, and keep them in your home until it’s time to give your live plants. If your friend loves nature, an indoor plant is a thoughtful gift and a great option for the next gift-giving occasion.
Find them a gift that keeps on giving throughout the year.
If you’re really stuck on what to give your friend, consider a subscription box instead. Eco-friendly subscription boxes like Causebox and Urthbox give your friend regular gifts each month that falls in line with their interests and their desire to change the world. No matter what your friend is interested in, you’re sure to find an eco-friendly subscription box that they can’t wait to receive on their doorstep.
Given that the majority of the gifts we give our friends are manmade, finding natural, responsible products can be a hard goal. Fortunately, there are far more options out there than you may believe. If you need a natural product for your friend’s gift, the guide above will give you a few excellent recommendations to help you get started!
