Fa la la lalling to sleep. Give the gift that keeps on giving this holiday season — better sleep. Here is how to thrive this Christmas and help those you love feel better.
Sleep is the foundation of everything –recovery, strength, mood, immune function, relationship quality– all of it starts with 7-9 hours of quality sleep. And most people you know? They're not getting it. Here's our gift guide for the people in your life who need sleep more than maybe an Amazon Echo.
Start Here: The Therabody Sleep Mask (Now $89.99!)
This is the first thing to gift anyone who struggles with sleep, especially if they are older and sleep can become more difficult, are a road warrior for work, or can't turn their brain off.
This sleep mask is one of the lightest, most comfortable blackout masks you can wear - you will forget you are wearing it.
Here's what makes it different - you won't notice it at all on your eyes.
100% blackout design
WORKS for slide sleepers and fits all face shapes and sizes
Lightweight with contoured padding, so breathable you will forget it is on your face
Gentle massaging vibrations scientifically shown to help you fall asleep faster.
Double Down: Add a Sleep Supplement
Once you've got the environment dialed in with the mask, here are three supplements to help you maximize those 8 hours.
Dream Shot - For the person who can't stay asleep
This product was created for those who wake up at 3:00 a.m., staring at the ceiling.
The game-changer here is PeptiSleep™—the first sleep peptide clinically shown to prevent those middle-of-the-night cortisol spikes that jolt you awake.
Combined with tart cherry juice, Magtein® magnesium, 3g of glycine, L-theanine, and ashwagandha. Test it with your sleep score; most people report higher sleep scores, plus REM and deep sleep increased by at least 20%.
69.7% of initial buyers reported better sleep.
One 2-ounce shot before bed. That's it.

Pillar Triple Magnesium - For restless legs and muscle recovery
Three forms of highly absorbable magnesium (L-Threonate, Glycinate, and Malate) that work together to calm overactive muscles while supporting deep sleep phases.
This is perfect for someone who says their legs are twitchy at night or they can't seem to relax after a hard training day. Mix one serving with water before bed. Refreshing flavors that don't taste like medicine.
Pro tip: Use this 3x per week alongside Dream Shot for maximum benefit.
NOKT Sleep Gummies - For someone new to sleep supplements
These are great for people who say, "I've tried melatonin and it doesn't work," or "I wake up groggy." The difference is phytomelatonin—plant-derived melatonin that's structurally identical to what your body naturally produces. Not a synthetic overload that knocks you out and leaves you foggy.
Take 1-2 gummies 30-60 minutes before bed. They work with your body's natural sleep cycle, not against it.
Who Should You Gift This To?
Your friend who mentions they are tired every time you talk to them.
Your mother-in-law, who's always up at odd hours.
That family member who complains about sleep but hasn't done anything about it.
Your crush at your run club so they can dream about you.
Or honestly —yourself. Most of us need it more than we admit.
The Real Gift You're Giving
When you give someone better sleep, you're not just giving them a product. You're giving them:
Better recovery between training sessions.
Improved mood and mental clarity.
Stronger immune function.
More energy for their family and work.
The ability to actually enjoy their training instead of dragging through it.
These gifts say "I care about your well-being" in a way that another coffee mug never will.
Sleep better, train better, live better.
