From now until New Year’s Day, your schedule will likely be packed with holiday parties, work events, shopping for gifts, and family get-togethers. Throw in a busy to-do list and extra stress at work, and it’s no wonder most of us tend to lack the motivation, time, and energy to keep up with our workout routines through the holiday season. Even the most dedicated joggers and biggest gym rats can struggle to stay active with schedules this packed. However, just because the holiday season is festive and busy does not mean we need to stop prioritizing our bodies. In fact, we need to prioritize our health even more when we feel like we don’t have the time. Scroll on for our shopping list of wellness products you’ll need to help you stay active, prioritize your body, and keep yourself healthy through January.

Food Wrap

When we prioritize getting nutritious foods, it's easier to prioritize staying active, but remember that health is always holistic! Since taking the time to meal prep, cook, and grocery shop for healthier food is harder when we're busy, having sustainable, easy tools that make prepping easier is essential. This eco-friendly alternative to plastic wrap or aluminum foil will help you prep healthy foods in advance to store throughout the week (including turkey leftovers!).

Light Therapy Lamp

When the weather is cold and cloudy every day, it's easy to lose motivation and energy to get out of bed, much less to do a full workout. The reason? The lack of sunshine can leave us feeling drained. This light therapy lamp is the next best thing to actual sunlight to boost energy, vitamin D levels, and sleep. Don't let the weather keep your energy down—you can still have the motivation to crush workouts until spring.

Portable Lunch Bowl

You'll be much more tempted to skip a workout and binge Hallmark movies after a day of cookies, stuffing, and holiday leftovers rather than a day full of eating fresh, whole foods that make the body feel good. These portable lunch bowls pack or store food, so you never have to skip your veggies while on the go. Bring some roasted veggies to the office instead of getting takeout for lunch or bring a homemade meal while traveling instead of opting for fast food. Your body will thank you later.

The Good Patch
B12 Awake Patches

Thanks to long travel days, hangovers after holiday parties, and a busy schedule, we can easily lack energy to move the body. While you should always prioritize rest when the body needs it, if you're dealing with more of a lack of motivation than fatigue, try these patches to help restore the body for more energy. Use them when you're traveling, have an extra busy day, or just need a boost. Be sure to talk to your doctor before adding any new supplement into your routine (even if it's an external patch).

Sunrise Alarm Clock

Especially for early risers who love to fit in a workout first thing in the morning (or may only have time for a workout if it is first thing in the morning), this time of year is especially hard because the sun rises later, so it's pretty dark and gloomy in the morning. This alarm clock will mimic the sunrise to bring you optimal energy whenever you wake up to get that workout in.

Amazon
Foam Roller

Staying active is not just about intense cardio or sweaty sessions at the gym. Staying active means tending to your body whenever you can, and doing a little foam rolling before bed is the easiest way to give your body some TLC and help with muscular health. Plus, this one is easy to travel with for self-care on the go.
