Creating a favor kit stocked with COVID-19 must-haves, from masks to hand sanitizer, is a thoughtful touch if you’re hosting a handful of guests this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MarthaStewart.com<\/a> | By\u00a0Blythe Copeland<\/a> | November 24, 2020 | Holiday Wellness Baskets<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hosting a smaller-than-usual holiday gathering<\/a> frees up time (and money) for extra-special touches you might not have been able to organize in past years\u2014and there’s no better favor for 2020 than individual wellness baskets. They’re beneficial from a health perspective, says Dr. Stephen Kissler<\/a> of the Harvard School of Public Health: “This is classic public health prevention stuff,” he says. “Empowering people to prevent illness<\/a> in themselves and from spreading it to others is great. It’s exactly what we should be doing\u2014and I think wellness baskets are a really good approach to that.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n And when stocked with handy essentials and wrapped in festive packaging, wellness baskets make your guests not just healthy, but happy, too. “Guests will immediately feel special<\/a>\u00a0on an individual level and will remember your party for months and even years to come,” says Jamie Kutchman Wynne, founder and CEO of custom gift box curators\u00a0Marigold and Grey<\/a>. “2020 hasn’t been the kindest and so it’s more important than ever to let people know that they matter to you. This\u00a0one simple gesture of thoughtfulness<\/a>\u00a0will go a long way and could be just the expression of kindness and generosity they need for their spirits to be lifted.” Ahead, several essentials to include in your kits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Holiday Wellness Baskets<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click here for more Holiday Wellness Basket ideas<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n When stocked with handy essentials and wrapped in festive packaging, holiday wellness baskets make your guests not just healthy, but happy, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14934,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,148,1,2],"tags":[15,161,1934,12,1933,1932,71,62],"class_list":["post-11741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business-blog","category-health-ins-blog","category-insurance","category-shield-blog","tag-business","tag-covid","tag-hand-sanitizer","tag-health-insurance","tag-holiday-gathering","tag-holiday-wellness-baskets","tag-michigan","tag-shield-insurance-agency"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11741"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11741\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14935,"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11741\/revisions\/14935"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14934"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shieldagency.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Hand Sanitizer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
