Five Star Gift Ideas

There are a variety of thoughtful and personal gift ideas that would suit your son's affinity towards mindfulness practices. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Meditation cushions
If your son enjoys meditating, he may benefit from having a special cushion to sit on. Meditation cushions come in a range of shapes and sizes, including round zafu cushions and flat zabuton cushions. Look for options that are made from eco-friendly materials, like organic cotton or natural buckwheat hulls.

2. Essential oils and diffuser
Aromatherapy can be a great way to enhance mindfulness practices. Consider gifting your son a selection of essential oils, like lavender or peppermint, along with a diffuser to use in his home or office.

3. Guided meditation CDs or downloads
There are countless guided meditation resources available in the form of CDs or digital downloads. Choose a guided meditation that resonates with your son's interests, whether it's focused on relaxation, creativity, or self-love.

4. Mindfulness books
There are many books available that explore the concepts of mindfulness and how to incorporate them into daily life. Look for titles like "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle or "Wherever you go, there you are" by Jon Kabat-Zinn.

5. Yoga classes or workshops
If your son is interested in both mindfulness and physical exercise, consider gifting him a package of yoga classes or a workshop on a specific aspect of mindfulness, like mindful eating or mindfulness in the workplace.

6. Journaling kit
Many people find that journaling can be a great tool for enhancing mindfulness practices. Consider putting together a journaling kit for your son, which might include a high-quality notebook or journal, a set of pens or markers, and a guidebook on mindfulness journaling prompts.

7. Healing crystals
Crystals are believed to have energetic properties that can aid with mindfulness and meditation practices. Look for crystal sets that are specifically designed for meditation, or choose individual crystals that align with your son's goals or intentions.

Ultimately, the best gift for your son will depend on his individual interests and needs. Pay attention to what he enjoys when it comes to mindfulness practices and look for ways to support those interests with a thoughtful and meaningful gift.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
