Mother’s day somehow always sneaks up on us each year, leaving our heads in a tornado of mess with trying to find a perfect gift! Mothers are such blessings and when we think about it, we should never want our mothers to feel less than, with all of the work they put in to make our lives special. This year, I have put together a perfect list of goodies that will provide your mother with the ultimate self-care package to help them feel just as amazing as they have been.
Help mom maintain her new year’s resolution goals this year with a Nutribullet. Yes these things have been around for quite some time however their durability and usefulness will never change. My mother loves making smoothies in her NutriBullet, especially green smoothies to help her keep strong and in shape. Nutribullets aren’t just great for smoothies, but as the weather gets cooler moms can use this nifty blender to make tasty soups.
You have your Nutribullet but what kind of recipes will mom whip up? I get it, some people aren’t as creative as others, which is totally fine. That’s why getting your mother a cook book this year may be a great option. If your mother isn’t an empty-nester and she still has a few little ones running around, cookbooks are great because they provide a multitude of quick recipes that will save your mother both the time sand energy when she doesn’t feel like cooking. Alternatively, sometimes moms need to be selfish and want to create decadent meals for themselves. Cookbooks will help your mother explore different options she can try this year. One of my favorite cookbooks is, What the F*@# Should I Make for Dinner?: The Answers to Life’s Everyday Question (in 50 F*@#ing Recipes). It provides fantastic recipes with humor every mom enjoys.
A mother’s smile is like nothing else in the world. Between watching their son cross the stage, to smiling at her child’s first murmur, a mother’s smile has numerous meanings. Why not help mom transition into her perfect smile with one of my favorite teeth whitening systems. If your mother has never tried any teeth whitening kit before, this kit is probably the best kit to start. She’ll receive a custom fitted teeth whitening tray, where she can learn the benefits of the custom tray. If she has sensitive teeth, they’ll provide some simple solutions for her. The kit is super simple to use and mom will have glowing teeth in no time. Does she have stubborn coffee stains that just won’t go away? (Insert mafia tone here) ‘Forget about it’. I swear by Smile Brilliant, and you can see all the amazing results I’ve had. in my previous post. As always, if you’re on a tight budget, perhaps you’d like to win one of these kits! I have a $149 dollar giveaway and you can enter to win one of these here.
If you can’t wait, no problem. You probably don’t want to gamble your mom’s pearly whites anyway!

Here are some additional helpful tips for mom if she is a bit hesitant on teeth whitening:

You all know how much I enjoy doing my nails myself, and they always come out gorgeously! My best guess is that your mother probably doesn’t have much time for herself either so getting her nails done is probably the last thing she has on her to do list. Let’s help your mom stop her nail sabotaging behavior with one of my favorite nail systems. With the Sensationail LED Nail Lamp your mother could probably do 4 manicure sets for the price of one. Maybe fake gel nail’s isn’t her thing…then she could always use the lamp to assist her in drying her gel polish. You can view the way I use this machine here.
Yes I know its cliché to give your mother flowers on Mother’s Day, but why stop the tradition? With SendFlowers.com you can send your mother flowers, that she can actually plant! Gardening is something I use to recommend to my patients as a self-soothing technique because it causes a person to be selfless in their acts. If you order flowers before 3PM you can receive same day delivery to her home or job! I’m also offering my readers a 20% discount when they make their first flower purchase for mom. Once mom receives the flowers, don’t stop there, consider assisting her in her in planting those flowers so the two of you can root something together. After all, mother’s never forget a thoughtful experience.
In order for mom to be comfy, she has to feel comfy! Lululemon has the best yoga apparel around. And the best thing about yoga apparel is that you don’t have to be a yogi to wear the clothing. Mom doesn’t have to feel professional all the time, so help her ease into comfort with a pair of leggings or loosely fitted tops for her lounging days. If you’re not sure what to get mom Lululemon has a gift guide as well that will help you treat your mom to the perfect Lululemon gift that suits their needs.
Nothing says I love you mom like a fresh face mask. After all the blood, sweat, and tears our mom’s have endured they need a nice way to clean up! Drunk Elephant has an innovate at home facial system that has both AHA’s/BHA’s to help peel back the dead cells on the skin. Though it’s a bit prices, it will probably last your mom for about a ½ a year. It’s half the cost of an in spa facial at that. But perhaps your mom doesn’t like the fancy shmancy’ facial life and wants a simple mask? Then I’d recommend the Sephora Collection sleep mask that come in the assorted selection of uses from mattifying to skin brightening at only $4 bucks! Help mom feel more awake, alive, and rejuvenated with these selection of masks.
Does it seem like your mother ever feels like she needs to cut out from the world? Does she like reading but never has the time? Audible may be her solution to catch a break with the multitude of book and Music selections to choose from. Audible provides the books you love digitally…well audibly. I personally like listening to witty yet motivational books when I need to take a mental break for a while. When you get your mother a subscription, she’ll have the opportunity to select a new book each month for sometimes a fraction of the price of a the hardcover version. If you aren’t sure if she’ll like it, you can get her a FREE 30 day trial subscription now and when you sign up my readers will get 2 free books for a limited time with my link here.
