To help you take a step back from the peppermint-coated craziness, we rounded up 60 gifts that will help you recharge and feel your best self. From essential oil diffusers and fitness gadgets to luxurious-yet-affordable spa sets and oh-so-cozy UGG boots (that are 50% off!), we hope these gifts will remind you of the importance of investing in yourself this season.
