20 DIY Gift Baskets For Men That He Will Love
Today I’d like to share some easy DIY gift baskets for men that you can make for all the guys in your life.

I’ve heard many people say that they find it difficult to think of gifts to buy for guys. This is true for me as well, especially if I go looking for a gift for my dad. When we think of gifts, we usually think of a specific item to buy. But what do you get for someone who already has everything? Or for someone who you perhaps don’t know that well yet?

Enter gift baskets. They’re easy to make, versatile and can make the perfect gift for just about anyone on any occasion.

Easy DIY Gift Baskets For Men

Below I’ve rounded up some easy DIY gift baskets for men to help you with some inspiration.

And if you’re looking to make a gift basket for a special someone, remember you can get creative and add whatever you want to your gift basket (and it doesn’t necessarily have to be a basket).

My hope is that you can use some of these ideas and personalize it to fit with whoever the lucky guy is. If you do happen to make a gift basket, let me know in the comments down below, I’d love to hear how it turned out!

1. Gifts filled cozy slippers

30 Easy Ways To Practice Self Care You Need To Try This Year
Life is stressful sometimes, we can’t get around that. So it’s important to practice self care as often as possible. And self care can be about the simple things you enjoy. Simple things that make you happy. So I’m sharing some 30 simple ways to practice self care that you can work on each day.

So what is self care?

Self care is all about identifying the things that you need in order to nurture your mental, emotional and physical health. It seems self explanatory, but so many people forget to focus on their own needs. It can become so easy to put everyone else first and to forget to focus on yourself for a bit.

Self care is not selfish. It is something that is needed for you to take better care of yourself. Without it, you can easily become worn out, stressed and filled with anxiety. Life can sometimes become overwhelming, so it is completely fine (and necessary!) to spend some time on yourself.

30 Easy Ways to Practice Self Care

Emotional
1. Find a quiet, comfy place and meditate
2. Learn to say NO to things that doesn’t serve you
3. Treat yourself with the same kindness and compassion as you would others – learn to forgive yourself for small mistakes
4. Listen to your favorite song or playlist and put it on repeat
5. Learn to accept compliments without embarrassment, guilt or negativity
6. Spend time with your loved ones
7. Practice gratitude daily – take note of all the small things in your day you are grateful for
8. Do something creative each day
9. Don’t attempt to do everything yourself, let others know if they can help
10. Stop criticizing yourself, become more aware of you the things you tell yourself
Physical
1. Go hiking or join a walking group
2. Play with a dog or cat (or any pet animal)
3. Learn to fly a kite or take up a new sport
4. Reorganize your room or closet
5. Go dancing
6. Start doing yoga
7. Go to bed early and get enough sleep
8. Make healthier food choices, give up soda and drink more water
9. Get 15 minutes of sun, especially if you live in colder areas
10. Take a long hot shower
Mental
1. Start journaling, write out your thoughts
2. Read a book
3. Take a break from social media
4. Listen to calming music
5. Turn off your phone
6. Help someone, it will help you feel good too
7. Plan a mini holiday for your next weekend
8. Create a zen space for yourself where you can relax
9. Go through your closet and donate all the clothes you don’t wear anymore
10. Try some adult coloring to release stress and anxiety
I hope you enjoyed this post on ways to practice self care and that maybe you got a few new ideas. Let me know in the comments below.

And remember, self care isn’t just for some of us, but for all of us. Everyone should take some time to take care of themselves. So use some of these ideas and remember to practice self care daily. In a few weeks, you’ll see how different you feel!

10 Mental Health Habits to Adopt In 2020 For A Great Year
2019 was the year we saw a strong surge of mental health awareness. The public’s focus on health broadened to also include taking care of one’s mental and emotional health. People have finally realized that one of the keys to maintaining a healthy body is to have a healthy mind.

This coming 2020, mental health awareness will continue to be one of the bigger focuses on overall well being. Learning a few habits that will promote and improve your mental health will be a great start to your new year.

This article first appeared on MadebyHemp.

1. Exercise

The secret to a sound body is a sound mind. But it could also work both ways. The secret to a sound mind is a sound body. It might not work for everybody, but for a majority of able-bodied people, a great way to boost endorphins is to go out and move. Find an exercise that you love. You don’t need to do what everyone else is doing. Some people prefer lifting weights, some like yoga, some even run marathons. Find that one exercise you want to stick with and run with it.

2. Gratefulness

Being thankful for the things you have instead of focusing on the things you don’t is a good way of bringing positive energy into your life. It will, more importantly, make you realize you are lucky to have the things you do. Practicing the habit of being grateful will help you become a more positive person.

3. Be kind

Be the person you wish other people would be to you. Make someone’s day by smiling at them, or helping them carry a heavy load, or even just opening the door for someone who has their hands full. A bit of kindness paid forward will cultivate a world of kindness. It doesn’t take much to make others smile.

4. Sleep

Get enough sleep. Sleep can do wonders for a tired mind and body. Don’t overdo it though. Get the right amount of sleep in order to feel rested and ready to tackle your day, every day. Put your screen away close to bedtime and concentrate on relaxing. Give your body and mind the time to recover and recuperate.

5. Hang out with friends

Socialize. Even the most introverted person has someone they prefer to hang around with. It does wonderful things to your soul to share your time with the people that matter.

6. Chocolate

Better yet, try Therapeutic Chocolate with Cannabidiol (CBD) oil. Cannabinoids are non-psychoactive and can reduce anxiety. If you are looking to incorporate CBD into your diet, but is not very much of a fan of its earthy taste, chocolate is the way to go. Cannabinoids are found to keep the body in neutral state, and support the functions of the brain, as well as the central and peripheral nervous system. Get your chocolate fix for the day, and get CBD’s benefits while you’re at it.

7. Laugh

When they said laughter is the best medicine, they were not kidding. Laughter helps ease stress and anxiety. Hang out with a funny friend, or watch a comedy show. Or maybe learn a few jokes and share them with your friends. Laughter is one of those things that multiply when shared.

8. Eat well

A few desserts won’t hurt you any but for the most part, feed your body the things it should be fed. Eat a healthy and balanced diet. This will ensure your body will feel healthy and will give you less things to stress or worry about. Avoid things that will harm your body like smoking or excessive drinking.

9. Love yourself

Tell yourself something nice every day. Most people are generous with giving away compliments to others but are stingy when it comes to themselves. Start your day by giving yourself a sincere compliment. It could be something simple like “oh my skin looks very nice today”. Or “I do make an amazing omelet.” And develop this into a daily habit. Because loving yourself will allow you to love others more freely.

10. Meditate

Give your mind a chance to empty itself out of the negative energy that is pervasive in the world. Give your mind the space to breathe and relax. And as you relax your mind, you relax your body. Meditation is a great way to connect your mind and your body into one plane. It is a good way to relax and to relieve yourself of any stress that you may have. Meditation also complements therapy.
