Mindful gifts

Jun 19, 2015
by help@grouptogether.com


Most of have enough “stuff”. What we yearn for is enhanced wellbeing. Here are some ideas are more in keeping with mindfulness. Some are quite expensive from one person. They are better suited as a group gift. GroupTogether is a website you can use to make it easy for friends to chip in online and write a personal message on a card. 


For an easier life

  • Gourmet/healthy meals delivered – try Dinner Ladies or Gourmet Dinner Services in most cities around Australia.
Gourmet Dinner Services

For a sense of “giving back”

  • Give to charity in your friend’s name. 
  • If you want to give a gift as well as give a portion to charity, say a GoPro and a donation to the Children’s hospital, you can do both. GroupTogether is an online service that lets you collect for a gift as well as donating a percentage. You set it up free in minutes. They do the rest – invite, collect, remind, track. They even create a group card with friends’ messages and pics. Then they send the money to you(for the gift) and to the charity (in your friend’s name). 



For Health

Gwinganna

  • 6 sessions with a meditation or yoga instructor. It’s a gift that could change your friend’s life.  
  • Juicer – Cold press (slow) juicers are supposed to be produce the most nutritious juice but also the most expensive. A regular juicer is still great. Make sure it’s easy to clean.
  • Massage / Spa voucher – ooh yes! Choose somewhere close to your friend’s home so that they can roll back to bed.
  • Detox / health retreat – Chip in towards a weekend somewhere heavenly. Golden Door, Gwinganna, Byron Bay Detox Retreats 


For learning

  • Classes : Group together to buy a voucher for some classes – computer lessons, photography, business coaching, music lessons, meditation or yoga classes – something that your friend has been “meaning to do forever but …”

Travel

  • Money toward a trip: 50 friends x $50 = $2500 air ticket. Let friends chip in online via GroupTogether and they’re off. Perfect for a 21st, wedding, or for someone who just needs a break! Travel is something that can change the way we look at the world and make us feel grateful for our lives.

For joy

  • Music – 
    • an itunes voucher, or send a collection straight to your friend’s itunes collection digitally. Cool!
    • Concert tickets – Sam Smith, Australian Chamber Orchestra or ….
    • Music lessons? Always wanted to learn guitar?
    • Musical Instrument – electric guitar?

  • Pure bees wax candles
    • Pure bees wax candles actually purify the air we breathe. A beeswax candle is said to be a natural ioniser when it is burning, purifying your air of dust, pollen, odours, toxins, mould and mildew whilst leaving a light, natural honey scent. We love Queen B candles  – 100% Australian, handmade, 100% pure bees wax. They smell very subtly of honey.


Photos

  • Up to date family photo 
    • What’s the one thing people take from the burning house? Organise a professsional photographer to take a family with the extended family. That’s the treasure!
