Give the Gift of Wellness This Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is almost here. Give your mother the gift of wellness this year!
Here are a few of my favorite wellness products that I use and love. These would make great gifts for anyone, anytime of the year! If you have any questions, just ask!
The Breast Chek Kit is something that I think all women should have. It’s a tool to help with breast self exams. It makes it easier to feel any little lumps. I have one, and it really helps.
Joyome is a skin care line that works to balance your skins microbiome to keep it healthy. This isn’t make up, it’s skin care. We start losing collagen at age 25, so we all need this!
I have used Triplex for about 6 years now. Gut health is so important to our overall health. Gut health seems to be a buzz word that everyone is using now. But Triplex really works! I love it, and hope to never be without it, because it has really helped me.
Sometimes wellness refers to our mental and emotional health, too. Mom’s need time to relax, and do things that they find fun, and that are important to them. With Cratejoy, you can have a box sent to mom that she will thoroughly enjoy. There are many boxes to choose from, so you’re sure to find something your your mom loves. You can have a box sent one time, or pick a subscription.
Ok, this next gift might be a little tricky. You can’t just give your mom a scale and insinuate that she needs to lose weight. But…..if she has expressed an interest in all the things that todays scales can do, this is a great one. I bought this one for myself. It syncs with an app on your phone to tell you not only weight, but body composition. The app saves your data, and you can set goals, and see your progress. I love being able to track my progress with building muscle.
I discovered Thrive Market a few months ago. I live in a rural area, and would have to drive a hour and a half to two hours to get to a store that carries the same products. Now I can have them delivered right to my door. Here’s a picture of my last delivery.
From meat and other items needed for dinners, to snacks, supplements, personal care, and household items. They really have just about everything that you need. And it’s all high quality, sustainable products. I love that you can search for a specific diet need, keto, vegetarian, gluten free, and more. It will pull up all the gluten free, for example, items for you to look at.
Give your mother a membership and she will thank you! Send her her first order, and she will THANK YOU! lol You can send a gift card to cover the membership & add some extra for their first order. Go HERE to get 25% of your first order, and get a free gift, too!
Those are a few wellness items that I use and love.
And that I would love to receive as a gift, too!

VOOKS Storybooks Brought to Life Review & Giveaway
*This post contains affiliate links
I was recently able to check out VOOKS, storybooks brought to life to review. VOOKS is a really cool streaming library of kid-safe animated storybooks. Be sure to check out the giveaway below!
VOOKS is trusted by teachers, and loved by kids around the world. It encourages independent learning, and a love of reading.
VOOKS Review & Giveaway
Once you get a subscription to VOOKS, you can make profiles for your kids. This is easy, and only takes a few seconds. You put in their name – first or a chosen screen name, age, and their preferred language. You can pick from several options for a profile picture. All the options are similar in style to those you can see in the picture below. I actually like that they don’t give you the option of uploading the child’s picture.
Switching between profiles is very quick as well. The kids can do that themselves.
Once you are signed in to VOOKS, you will see a large selection of books, in different categories to choose from. The pic below is how it looks on the computer screen.
Below is a picture from my phone. When you click on a title, you can see how long the book is, what category it is in, and the age group it is best for. You can click the heart to save it for later in favorites.
Not only can they save the books that they want to read, this is useful for you to “assign” books for your child to read.
VOOKS even has lesson plans, offering discussion topics and engaging activities. They are fun, free, and printable. So whether you are a teacher, homeschool teacher, or parent looking to supplement your child’s learning, you will find them very useful. You can see some of the categories in the picture below.
If the child has to stop reading before they finish it, the next time they sign in it will tell them how much time they have remaining in the book. Then they can click on the resume button when they are ready to finish the book.
The words are displayed on the screen, with the words highlighted as the story is being read. This helps kids that are learning how to read, and also helps their vocabulary and spelling.
Below is a short video so you can get the feel of what the storybooks are like.
I have thoroughly enjoyed using VOOKS. The children in your life will enjoy it, too! It’s 100% kid-friendly and parent-approved!
