Did you know December 11th is the most common day of the year for couples to break up? It's true - the month of December is not a great one for couples, in fact, it's the most common month for breakups!
So...what does this mean for the holiday season? It means you may have a lot of broken-hearted friends on your holiday shopping list this year. What do you gift to someone who just had their heart broken? Don't worry, we've got you covered.
Check out our 5 gift ideas for the broken-hearted person in your life.
House of Wise CBD Gummies:
Sometimes after a breakup your brain will. not. calm. down. Oh, the spinning! It can be hard to focus on anything with a broken heart - and sometimes it's even hard to sleep. So, what can you do for a friend grieving their relationship if they can't focus or sleep? CBD to the rescue, friends. We're huge fans of the woman-owned House of Wise CBD gummies (and not just because of their adorable packaging). They make the perfect post-breakup gift for anyone going through a breakup this holiday season. House of Wise CBD gummies are designed to help with both stress and sleep, so send 'em both over and gift your bestie some peace of mind and rest this year.
Empowerment Coach Session:
Going through a breakup can really do a number on your self-esteem and confidence - and sometimes, even the encouraging texts from your text-thread can't make you feel better or boost your spirits. What does one do when their soul needs some empowering? Turn to an empowerment coach! An empowerment coach helps you boost your best-self back up, change your habits and narratives, reclaim your energy and help you make choices which best serve YOU. Head to the Fresh Starts Registry Resource Guide and check out our amazing Empowerment Coaches. Gift your friend a consult or session with an Empowerment Coach and help them get back to their badass self post-breakup.
Good Stock Soups
Whenever we had a broken heart, our grandmother would make a pot of soup to fill that empty spot in our body. The warmth, the nourishment, the special ingredient of love...it all helps heal a broken heart. Can't be there to make a pot of soup for your friend? Send them a pot of soup from our faves at Good Stock Soup. Good Stock Soup is a modern soup company doing things the old fashioned way. Using real, natural ingredients, and no preservatives or additives ever, you can send a soup anywhere in the country and your loved one can keep it frozen until they're ready to eat. And, we're confident that Good Stock Soups will help heal that broken heart, as they say, "We cook those ingredients with skill, precision, and heart. Cooking the right way means we never use artificial ingredients or artificial preservatives. Only the good stuff goes into our soups, and only the good stuff goes to our customers."
Em & Friends Reasons You're My BFF Journal
When someone you love is going through a breakup, it's the perfect time to hype them up! We're loving this fill-in-the-blank journal you can fill out for your BFF. It's simple to fill out and will remind your sweet friend how much they are loved. Have it shipped to you first, fill it out, and then send to your BFF with some homemade cookies. They'll feel so loved and appreciated and taken care of.
Super Comfy, Giant, Oversized Hoodie
Okay, let's be honest, when we're reeling from a broken heart, sometimes we really just want to hide in a giant hoodie and cry. And, that's okay! We celebrate you even on sad days. Send your friend an oversized hoodie and rename it "chrysalis," so they can know better days are ahead and they're just in the goo phase right now. Sometimes we're all in the goo phase, and that's okay, too!
