Toronto Wellness Gift Guide 2025
Your curated collection of intentional, ethical, wellness-forward gifts for mind, body, and spirit.
Welcome to the Toronto Wellness Gift Guide 2025, created to help you discover meaningful, ethically minded, and wellness-focused gifts that truly support the people you love. As a Clinical Psychologist and founder of The Design Your Life Centre, I believe the most impactful gifts are the ones that nourish someone’s well-being and support their inner growth. This guide was designed with that intention — to highlight offerings that help any lucky recipient reconnect with who they were always meant to be.
This Toronto Wellness Gift Guide features the brands, experiences, and makers I personally love — local Toronto treasures and global ethical favourites that elevate daily living and support deep well-being. Many of these offerings have shaped my own life or influenced the work we do at the Design Your Life Centre, which makes sharing them with you especially meaningful. Each gift has been chosen with intention, care, and a commitment to helping others feel more aligned, supported, and inspired as they move into the new year.
Let’s begin with the gift closest to my heart.

✨ The Full Toronto Wellness Gift Guide 2025
Each of the wellness brands below offers something unique: rest, beauty, strength, joy, or inspiration. All are handpicked to support a well-designed, deeply aligned life.
1. Allwood Market – Ethical Toronto Wellness Gift & Vegan Café
Kevin Allwood is woven into the story of my career. In the early days of my practice, he saw me — truly saw me — and believed in what I was building. He redesigned my very first website and invited me to write a column for his magazine, a moment that became one of the seeds of The Design Your Life Centre.
Allwood Market is a reflection of his endless creativity: a chic ethical boutique, thoughtfully curated handcrafted goods, bold art and fashion pieces, and the most delicious Jamaican vegan cuisine in Toronto. Stepping into his café and shop is an experience of beauty, intention, and soul.
Perfect for: the ethical shopper, art lover, design enthusiast, or anyone who appreciates handcrafted beauty and good vibes.

2. Chi Junky – A Toronto Wellness Studio for Movement & Mindfulness
Chi Junky holds a foundational chapter in my story. Early in my career, when I was struggling to find a quiet therapeutic space, a serendipitous meeting with founder Rachelle led me to rent an office inside her beautiful studio. Our shared passion for curating intentional, deeply caring spaces connected us instantly.
Chi Junky has since evolved into one of Toronto’s most beautiful boutique wellness studios, offering thoughtfully designed yoga and movement classes and an online on-demand membership so you can revitalize your Chi anywhere.
Perfect for: the person craving a sanctuary to move, breathe, and restore their life-force energy.
Give the gift of Chi with the Chi Junky Gift Card.
3. The Belle Method Membership – Pelvic Health & Women’s Wellness
Nikki Bergen has been a gift in my own healing journey. When I was pregnant with my second child, her physiotherapy-informed approach helped me prevent further abdominal injury and recover more quickly postpartum. I’ve watched her support countless women over the past decade — from pregnancy to perimenopause — with compassionate expertise.
Her membership offers deep support for core strength, pelvic health, prenatal preparation, postpartum healing, and overall women’s wellness.
Perfect for: new moms, moms-to-be, or any woman wanting to rebuild strength from within.
Give a woman on your list the gift of inner strength with The Belle Method Membership.
