Elevate Your Fate: Elevated Gift Guide

Enlighten your holiday season with 12 gifts to uplift your spirit.

Photos by Danstan Kaunda

As December’s chill embraces us and sunlight grows scarce, the seasonal shift can leave many yearning for warmth, light, and connection. This winter, I’ve faced a quiet journey of solitude and introspection, reflecting on the complexities of the holidays. Not everyone finds joy in these weeks of traditional nostalgia — holidays can be tough for those walking solo through life’s seasons.

That’s why I’ve curated this Elevated Gift Guide — a collection of treasures to warm the heart and uplift the spirit. Many partners have shared exclusive discount codes for our Leaf readers. Whether you’re shopping for someone special or indulging in self-care, these gifts brighten the holidays, elevate daily life, and carry magic into the new year. Remember, self-love is the foundation of every connection, a gift that keeps giving. Happy Holidays, OGs — stay lifted, stay grateful and spread high vibes!

Ethically Sourced, Rare White Himalayan Rock Salt Lamp by SpiritualQuest
Created over 200 million years ago, salt lamps are valued for potential benefits like air purification, reduced allergens, mood enhancement, negative ion production and neutralizing electromagnetic radiation. During damp winter months, when indoor air quality often suffers, they’re a valuable addition to wellness-focused decor, uplifting your spirit all season.

Susan Robertson, owner of SpiritualQuest, transformed her life through a powerful wellness journey inspired by her struggle with debilitating migraines — a challenge I deeply relate to. In creating a healing and balanced environment, Himalayan rock salts became her trusted ally.

Elevate Your Internal Wellness

Ma Fair Trade Ceremonial Cacao
Formerly known as Buddha Chocolate, Ma’s Ceremonial Cacao warms the body and activates the release of anandamide, the “bliss molecule,” promoting joy and heightened consciousness. It’s my first go-to during times of grief, heartbreak or mental hardship. Embracing cacao is a nourishing ritual rooted in ancient plant medicine, expanding the heart and fostering self-love. This holiday season, let this sacred elixir bring harmony and peace while supporting a family-owned business. Favorites include 100% ceremonial cacao — stone-ground, heirloom-crafted and aromatic — and the Holy Rose Drinking Chocolate, infused with rose petals, cardamom, beetroot and stress-soothing ashwagandha.

Neau Tropics Psilocin Microdose Spray

Crafted by the small business Neau Tropics, this microdose spray is available in grape or fresh mint, my personal favorite. This wellness remedy is my go-to source for combatting dark, gloomy days when the onset of depression or loneliness is knocking at the door. A game changer formulated for daily wellness, this psychotropic solution is intentionally crafted to make microdosing easy. Infused with 8 grams of pure isolated psilocin, it bypasses stomach queasiness and nausea to deliver a quicker onset and controllable come-down. While higher states can be achieved, this formulation is intended for functional use. It’s a quick, easy way to boost your mood, enhance focused creativity and fuel brain-boosting nootropic benefits from plant medicine. This tincture also works as a drink mixer, pairing well with seltzer water or coffee.
