Below is our list of holiday gifts for under $50 that support a green, earth friendly, and health-conscious lifestyle.

 

Gift Cards

One of the best gift ideas is, of course, the gift of options! Our digital gift cards offer an easy way to ensure that your loved ones get just what they’re looking for. Good for all Banyan products, our gift cards are entirely electronic and are emailed within minutes of purchase, so you won’t have to worry about the environmental impact of a printed card or the hassle of waiting for it to arrive via mail.

 

Daily Massage Oil

Give the ones you love the opportunity to cherish themselves! Our Daily Massage Oil is a wonderful herbal oil blend for everyday abhyanga (self-massage). In an award-winning clinical trial, it was shown to decrease stress levels, promote sound sleep, and increase overall quality of life. This oil is an ideal gift for self-care enthusiasts and the Ayurveda newbies in your circle who are just starting to build a daily routine.

 

Ayurvedic Teas and Drink Mixes

We all know someone who loves warm, cozy drinks and is rarely seen without a steaming mug of tea in hand. Our Ayurvedic teas feature organic herbs and flowers in a variety of aromatic loose-leaf blends. We also offer creamy, ready-to-blend drink mixes like our dreamy Ashwagandha Latte Mix and nourishing Turmeric Milk Mix. These beverages are as beautiful as they are enjoyable! Pair one with a new mug for a functional gift that can be enjoyed over and over again. 
 

Herbal Honeys

Giving the gift of health just got a whole lot sweeter. Crafted with raw organic Hawaiian honey and carefully formulated blends of antioxidant-rich herbs and superfoods, our new herbal honeys are the perfect health-promoting treat for kids and adults alike. Our gooey, golden Turmeric Honey supports healthy digestion and our lip-smacking Elderberry Honey offers immune support throughout the winter months.
 

 

Stress Ease

Whether you're traveling, laying low, or hosting large get-togethers this holiday season, the holidays can be a stressful time of year! Stress Ease is a tablet that harnesses the power of rejuvenating Ayurvedic adaptogens to help the body deal naturally with the stresses in life. A great gift for anyone on your list in need of a little soothing.

 

Deep Sleep Bundle

For many, the holidays are packed with a joyous hustle and bustle that includes travel, celebration, and sweet indulgences—all of which can throw our sleep routines a wee bit out of whack. The Deep Sleep Bundle combines calming herbal tablets and soothing massage oil to promote deep and restful sleep. It's the perfect gift for anyone on your list who suffers from a lack of sweet and dreamy zzzzs.

 

Oral Care

It's probably safe to say that everyone on your shopping list practices daily oral care. How about introducing a loved one to a new Ayurvedic routine to supporting healthy gums and pearly white teeth?

Scraping the tongue with a tongue cleaner helps to remove built-up toxins and freshen the breath, Tooth Powder is a clean and refreshing alternative to toothpaste, and Daily Swish is a refreshing way to practice the age-old art of oil pulling. It's available in two delicious flavors as well as a single-use size that makes the perfect stocking stuffer! You can find all three products in our Oral Health Bundle.

 

Beauty Balm

Our award-winning Beauty Balm is one of our most beloved products for an Ayurvedic beauty routine. If you know someone with a passion for all things that involve beauty, skin, and luxurious self-care, this deeply moisturizing balm is sure to be a hit. It can be used on the face, the hands and cuticles, the feet, and anywhere on the body in need of a little extra TLC.

 

Soaps

Between calming Lavender, invigorating Cedar Eucalyptus, and soothing Neem & Aloe, there is sure to be a soap blend for everyone. For the base of our soaps, we use a well-balanced blend of all-natural, organic saponified oils that are GMO-free and create the perfect lather. These bars make for thoughtful organic gifts you can give to friends, family, neighbors, or just about anybody.

 

Immune Wellness

Now more than ever, the gift of a healthy and robust immune system is something we all desire. Help your loved ones navigate the winter months with confidence by stocking their shelves (or stuffing their stockings) with herbal products to strengthen their natural defenses. Our favorite blends include Immune Strong tablets or liquid extract, Immune Health NOW, and Chyavanprash.

 

Mental Well-Being

Within the context of our fast-paced modern lifestyle, the experience of anxiousness, overwhelm, and emotional distress has become increasingly commonplace. If you're looking to gift someone you love with a little bit of mental calm and emotional ease, we're sure they will appreciate a bottle of Tranquil Mind.

In a placebo-controlled clinical trial on this product, those who took Tranquil Mind had a 25–50% decrease in signs of anxiousness.

 

Cooking Essentials

For the budding sattvic chef in your life, we offer a variety of kitchen staples, from kitchari ingredients and individual spices to our special offerings like Kitchari Spice Mix and our preblended mix of Rice and Dal. Shop our whole selection of cooking and meal ingredients for the earth-friendly, whole-food enthusiasts in your circle. Who knows? If you’re lucky, maybe they’ll cook for you!
