Essential oils make great holiday gifts for plenty of reasons. They smell lovely, and they come in so many  scents  and have so many different uses and health benefits that you can find the perfect oil for anyone. You have the option to choose between single bottles and sets. 

If you’re familiar with the types of scents that the person enjoys, you might want to get them a gift bundle containing a few of their favorites. Even if they already own some in the bundle, essential oil fans will be happy to receive more of what they love!

Today we're going to be taking a deep dive into some of our Essential Oil Holiday Bundles, what they include and who they could be gifted to.

    Traveler's Gift Ideas:

    Do you know someone who's always on the move? Of course, we all know someone like that, and I’m sure you can make a list of people in your friend circles, your extended family or loved ones who love to travel.   

    Herba Terra Organics Travel Kit Bundle would be the ideal gift for anyone who fits the "traveller" criteria. It includes three amazingly versatile essential oils that can be used in a multitude of ways. Geranium Rose is the best oil to have with you for jet lag. It helps resynchronize the body's clock by rebalancing hormones. Peppermint is an absolute must-have when you travel; it's incredibly versatile as it helps with a multitude of symptoms that may be more common when we travel. And finally, LClary Sage's ability to help you relax and sleep has been well documented in many research studies therefore is a MUST-have item for anyone's luggage. These essential oils help to keep your health and energy levels in check while traveling.

    Our Vegan Leather, Hard Shell Travel Case for Essential Oils is the best traveling accessory. Quality essential oils don’t come cheap; they’re an investment in your health and wellness, and a high-quality carrying case can protect them safely and securely without breakage or leaking during travel. Your loved ones will be able to take their oils anywhere in our beautifully designed, sturdy, and gender-neutral smokey blue case! 


    Athlete's Gift Ideas:

    We all have that one friend, neighbor, or relative that's constantly working out or trying a new yoga class in their neighborhood. Invite them for a coffee, and they will probably tell you they can't make it until after their jog but that you're welcome to join them. Yes, those people! 

    Anyone who exercises regularly can benefit from the use of essential oils. Exercising can be demanding, causing stiff muscles and sore joints  especially during the cold season. Herba Terra's Merry Massage Bundle is a great gift idea. It includes three anti-inflammatory oils: Patchouli, Gingergrass, and Siberian Fir, which combined with a carrier oil can be used as a recovery balm when applied through a massage.

    Another gift option for your gym lover friends or relatives is Herba Terra's Burnout Reviver Bundle. This kit contains four essential oils: Patchouli, Lemongrass, and Pink Grapefruit. If you know someone whose energy is depleted, it's vital they build up their energy "tank" to avoid exhaustion. Using these essential oils in a foot bath is extremely useful, or similarly to the Massage Bundle, you can make a body rub using five drops of this blend mixture for each one teaspoon of vegetable oil. Your friends will thank you for these wonderful recovery gifts! 


    Women's Gift Ideas:

    ANY, and we genuinely mean any woman on your gift list could benefit in some way or another from essential oils. There's such a long list of uses and health benefits for essential oils that women can enjoy, but to keep it simple, we're going to highlight some of our faves. 

    Herba Terra Organics Daily Kit: this bundle is an excellent option for any woman who is new to essential oils. It can also serve as a lovely gift for new moms, as the essential oils included in this bundle are also kids-safe! Oregano,Tea Tree, and Basil essential oils are some of the most popular on the market because of their infinite list of applications. 

    Essential oils such as Clary Sage and Tea Tree can also be used to make acne-busting roll-ons when reduced in a carrier oil. While resin based oils can be used to apply moisture and reduce wrinkles:

    • Clary Sage Essential Oil: Excellent for both hair and skin, Clary Sage is a must-have essential oil. Adding a couple of drops to your preferred carrier oil and massaging the mix into the scalp is a great way to help alleviate an awkward, dry, dandruff scalp. Clary Sage can help keep skin smooth, hydrated, and clear when added to natural cleansers and moisturizers.
    • Tea Tree Essential Oil: The reason why so many top-selling beauty products have Tea Tree oil as an ingredient is because it works! Tea Tree is wonderful for skin health. It can support keeping pores clear, stopping blemishes and clearing acne, while keeping oils at bay.Also, it’s among the very few essential oils that can be applied directly to skin, undiluted, unlike the majority of oils that need to be diluted first with a carrier oil. 
    • Resin-based oils such as Ylang Ylang and Myrrh can be diluted in your favorite carrier oil and applied to your face. These oils are known to help diminish the appearance of scars and help to stabilize sebum production. Geranium oil and Frankincense are also excellent choices to help introduce extra moisture to the skin, allowing your skin complexion to look more supple than before and decrease fine lines and wrinkles.
    • Frakincense is another essential oil that’s amazing for scar reduction, hands down - it’s probably the most effective!

    When appropriately applied, essential oils help maintain the skin's natural balance and make it look and feel healthier. They also help to increase a brighter and more youthful glow.

    And last but not least, another all-time favorite that the ladies will be sure to love is our Make Love The Center of the Season Bundle. For millennia, people have utilized aromatic botanicals and floral waters to set the mood. Science is now catching up to this wise tradition, and new studies aim to demonstrate the efficacy of using aromatherapy to enhance our intimate relationships. The bundle contains a bottle of Patchouli, Lemongrass, and Ylang-Ylang essential oils. Your loved ones will most definitely enjoy this exquisitely balanced aroma of feminine and masculine notes as their cares and worries melt away to the diffused aromas.


    Men's Gift Ideas:

Oils such as Bay, Fir, Frankincense, Myrrh, and Patchouli are among favorites by perfumers around the world for creating masculine perfumes with earthy and musky notes.

    winter wellness diffuser blend with orange, cedar and eucalyptusessential oils

    If you really want to impress your loved ones, then an aromatherapy bundle gift is probably the BEST gift you can offer them to show them how much you truly care about their health and well-being, because after all, caring is loving. And may we suggest, this is THE gift you should give yourself this holiday season- after all, your health and wellbeing are worth it more than ever before considering the health crisis we’re still going through at this time.

    The Herba Terra Nebulizer is the highest quality device for aromatherapy on the market today, built with nanotechnology-the most revolutionary system in the scenting industry. It works by using high amounts of air pressure to compress oils into a dry mist of nanoparticles. The cold air diffusion technology in our nebulizer ensures consistent and subtle scenting without high or low points in the scenting process which guarantees the maximum health benefits.

    To make this gift complete, we suggest choosing  between the following Holidays aromatherapy bundles, that way your loved ones can start using their gift immediately with the oils offered in each bundle package.

    The Rejoice Diffuser Blend is for diffusing during meditation; however, you can still get benefits by just diffusing it while working, or while relaxing at home if you don’t have time to meditate. The holiday season can be stressful and the combination of Clary Sage, Patchouli, and Ylang Ylang oils can help to lower blood pressure, anxiety and calm the nervous system by restoring peace of mind and uplifting the mood, so you’re able to stress less, and enjoy the holidays more with your loved ones. It’s our birth right to feel good all the time, but even more so during this special time of year. Life is short, and everybody deserves to enjoy it as much as possible. 

    And finally, our Holidays Warmth & Cheer Bundle is one of our favorites for this winter holiday season.
