Dear Joyous Readers,
I’m thrilled to talk about healthy and holistic gift-giving ideas, whether it’s for Valentine’s Day, Mother’s or Father’s Day, Christmas, or simply to share the gift of love. There’s nothing quite like a non-GMO, organic, eco-friendly, and fabulous gift to show you care! That’s why I’m excited to share another giveaway from My Organic Havynn just in time for the holidays. This company specializes in holistic-approved gift baskets filled with amazing items.
Christine Groulx, the owner of My Organic Havynn, shares a philosophy similar to Joyous Health. As she puts it, “In today’s over-processed world, we all need a safe haven, and my goal was to create exactly that. I was inspired to start a company that could make a difference, and thus My Organic Havynn, Inc. was born. The driving force behind my vision? The smiles of my children, Kieran and Havynn (after whom the company is named).”
I was thrilled to receive a few baskets to try out, including the “Green Cleaning Basket” and the “Ultimate Superfoods Bundle.” You can check out the items in these photos. Plus, each basket comes with a plantable card!
As I prepare for the arrival of my baby at 36 weeks pregnant, having access to these superfoods and clean products gives me peace of mind, knowing that both my body and baby are getting the best quality ingredients. I’ve swapped some of my current cleaners for those by Clean Well, and I particularly love their hand sanitizer. It’s time to get rid of the harmful cleaning chemicals in my home!
For my two boys, ages 7 and 9, I use these products to promote healthy eating habits and show them that nutritious food is delicious too. As a tea lover, I’ve also replaced processed honey with raw honey in my daily brew, and I’m planning to revamp my cleaning supplies to be eco-friendly. I’ll even make some mouth-watering chocolate chip cookies using Giddy YoYo chocolate for my loved ones.
Switching to green cleaning products has been a long-time goal, and this is just the motivation I need. It’s easier to overlook organic purchases when on a grad student budget, but this giveaway could make all the difference. I’d love to replace all my herbs with healthier options and send a thank-you package to a dear friend. Stocking up on superfoods and toddler baskets for my little one would be amazing as well.
My dream is to make homemade granola with pure organic ingredients, and I’d love to try new healthy products for our pantry. Feeding my 1- and 2-year-old healthy meals sounds exciting because I know that food greatly influences mood. I’d love to swap out our cleaning products too, as many give me headaches.
This giveaway is incredible! As a student trying to balance the cost of groceries, I’ve learned to be mindful of what I eat. If I win, I’ll overhaul my pantry and replace any lingering ‘bad’ foods.
Pampering myself with organic spa products is also a goal—it’s a great way to unwind and feel good. My entire household recently went vegan, so I’m excited to explore the delicious organic vegan options available. Learning from Joy McCarthy has inspired me to cut out white sugar and choose healthier flours for my baking. Clean eating makes indulging in my favorite recipes guilt-free!
Continuing to use organic cleaning products and healthier dietary choices is my plan. Grad school taught me about GMOs, and now I ensure they have no place in my home. I aim to go fully raw and cut out meat and dairy. As I prepare to move, I see this as the perfect opportunity to trade in those “dirty chemical” cleaning products for clean, safe alternatives.
Having a well-stocked pantry with organic foods for the holidays and beyond is crucial. Living on a fixed income makes it tough to afford unprocessed foods, and I’d love to add variety to our organic options. If I win, the initial step would be reducing household toxins, proving to my boyfriend that we don’t need harsh chemicals for a clean home.
I’d be thrilled to gift this amazing prize to my brother and his family in T.O. with two young kids. It’s a chance to share health and happiness!
Putting the $75 towards the cleaning bundle and switching out products is long overdue. Continuing our transformation to a healthier lifestyle, started last year, would be amazing too.
Winning this gift would be life-changing! With a newborn born on November 4th, I owe it to my family to stay strong and healthy, and I know eating well is key. Being on a budget for a family of six, this gift would be a significant help.
I’m excited to stock up on pantry staples, enjoy organic snacks, and sweeten my raw honey and green tea. Swapping out sugar for alternative sweeteners in my gluten-free baking will also be an exciting challenge.
Gifting the basket to a mom starting a gluten-free diet, or splurging on luxurious bath products for my kids, is also on my list. Having on-the-go snacks for rushed mornings will make a big difference too.
There’s so much potential with $75—from indulging in organic herbs for a taste of garden-fresh flavor to supporting a healthier lifestyle with My Organic Havynn products. Excited for the opportunities, and so grateful for this wonderful giveaway!
