Holiday Gift Guide 2024

See this social icon list in the original post

Can you believe the holidays are already here? Ahhhh! It feels like time speeds up as I get older. Just the other day, I was shaking my fist at the Monday morning sky, whispering, “Not you again!” Do you ever feel like there’s barely enough time in the week to balance work and home, let alone squeeze in holiday festivities? Is your to-do list already starting to look like an unrolling scroll tumbling off your desk?

Gifting can be a lot of fun and filled with heart when we place more intention and mindfulness within our giving. When we choose mindful gift giving it can reduce the overall number of gifts purchased and make a bigger impact instead of just being a rat race to the most amount of stuff. Considerate gifts help highlight the individual and celebrate them with something that helps them feel seen.

YonkA: Clean, High-Quality Skin Care from paris, france.

The Origins of Our Brand Name-The Meaning Behind Yon-Ka: Homage to the Egyptian symbol of infinite rejuvenation

  • YON (Life-giving river with cleansing waters, and phonetic link ION, or energy particles) and

  • KA (the part of eternity found in every being in ancient Egypt.)
    Social and beauty conservationists by nature, visionary brothers Charles and Ernst Mühlethaler and his wife Cecile created a skincare brand that married artistry and science to serve the people and planet with multi-sensory formulations consistent in all their products. Since 1954, The Mühlethaler family chose natural plant-based ingredients versus chemical and synthetic elements (commonplace at the time) to create extraordinary products. They pioneered the use of aromatherapy in beauty products through the power of nature with results-driven expert formulas; a commitment to authenticity and simplicity that remains true to the brand.
    The Mühlethaler Motto: “If you believe in something, do it!”
