## What Buddha and yoga decor gifts suit a home or altar?

Buddha and yoga decor gifts suit a home or altar as a quiet focal point. Each gift below is a display piece for a shelf, windowsill or altar. Together they show a practice in the home, from a meditation corner to a small altar of trays and crystals.

### [Hand Painted Resin Buddha Statue](/products/teal-gold-buddha-medium) (from £10.99)

If they love meditation, this is the one. This hand painted resin Buddha comes in seven colour and size styles. The Teal Gold Medium sits in the dhyana mudra, a meditation pose, and at 15 x 12 x 7 cm it is a good size for a shelf, desk or small corner. It suits a friend who sits in meditation, or a new home that needs a quiet focal point.

*Best for: Meditators and new homeowners.*

### [Glass Buddha Glow Lamp on Oval Stand](/products/buddha-lamp-oval-stand) (£47.49)

Made to be noticed. This glass Buddha glow lamp sits on an oval stand and comes as a seated meditation Buddha or a bust. The crackle-textured glass glows when lit, so the statue looks lovely in a dim room or a meditation corner. Choose from lavender, cherry, sky blue or molten lava finishes. The bust in Molten Lava glows red, a bold pick for someone who likes warm colour in their home.

*Best for: A dim room or meditation corner.*

### [Buddha Face Long Tray, Whitewash Mango Wood](/products/buddha-face-long-incense-tray) (£10.99)

Simple, useful and well made, this long tray is mango wood with a Buddha face design and a whitewash finish. At 30 x 15 x 2.5 cm, it is low and long, a good shape for an altar or shelf. It is made for devotional or decorative display, so it suits a friend who meditates, a yoga lover who likes a tidy altar, or anyone who enjoys Buddhist art at home.

*Best for: Friends who meditate.*

### [Large Enamelled Buddha Tray Set of 3](/products/enamelled-mango-tray-set-buddha) (£27.49)

Thoughtful without being fussy, this set brings three large mango wood trays, with one, two and three compartments. Each has an enamelled Buddha in meditation, set inside a golden mandala. The set measures 38 x 13 cm and has a smooth enamelled surface that is easy to maintain. Use the trays to hold crystals or small offerings on an altar, or simply show off the set on a shelf.

*Best for: Altar keepers and Buddhist art fans.*

### [Wooden Yoga Lady Figurine](/products/wooden-yoga-lady-pose) (£22.49)

A smart choice for a colleague who teaches or practises yoga. This wooden yoga lady figurine is made from albasia wood and shows one of four poses: easy, revolved, cow face or hands up. Each one has its own name, such as Stretch into Your Strength. Pick the whitewash or antique finish that suits the room. It sits neatly on a desk, shelf or windowsill, and it is a simple reminder of the pose they love.

*Best for: Yoga teachers and yoga lovers.*

### [Amethyst Gemstone Tree on Mango Wood Ring](/products/amethyst-gemstone-tree-mango-wood-ring) (£24.99)

A colourful choice, this gemstone tree is made from 60 amethyst chips on brass wire branches. The branches grow out of a mango wood open ring, which is sustainably sourced. It is handcrafted and measures 17 x 4 x 16 cm, so it works on a shelf or altar. It is a thoughtful pick for a friend who loves crystals and meditation.

*Best for: Crystal fans who meditate.*

## Which incense and holder gifts suit a yoga or meditation lover?

Three gifts suit a yoga or meditation lover well: a teak palo santo heater, a set of Himalayan incense bricks with a terracotta holder, and a tri-flower lotus incense holder. Together they cover the scent side of a practice, from wood to incense to a holder.

### [Teak Palo Santo Heater, Hamsa Design](/products/palo-santo-heater-wood) (from £10.99)

Nice to unwrap, nicer to use. This teak heater has a hamsa design, a hand-shaped symbol, and is made to pair with palo santo wood. It comes in two sizes, so you can choose the one that suits their space. A heater is a simple way to bring palo santo into a morning stretch or a quiet evening sit, and the teak and metal look lovely on a shelf.

*Best for: Palo santo lovers and yogis.*

### [Himalayan Incense Bricks, Set of 70 with Holder](/products/himalayan-incense-bricks-set-of-70-with-holder) (£10.99)

A cosy choice for winter evenings. This set holds 70 incense bricks, with 10 bricks in each of 7 earthy Himalayan scents, including cedar and juniper. A terracotta holder comes in the box, so they can burn a brick straight away. The display measures 15 x 2 x 16.5 cm, a neat size for a shelf or windowsill. It is a generous gift for someone who likes to try different scents through their practice and enjoy a new one each time.

*Best for: Scent explorers on winter nights.*

### [Tri-Flower Lotus Incense Holder](/products/tri-flower-lotus-incense-holder) (£9.49)

Made for slow mornings. This 10 x 10 cm holder has a layered tri-flower lotus design, and it is made from durable aluminium. It holds several incense sticks at once, so a yoga lover can light a few and let the scent fill the room. The holder also collects the ash, which keeps the space tidy after a practice. The layered lotus shape is a neat detail for an altar.

*Best for: Altar keepers and beginners.*

- [Teak Palo Santo Heater, Hamsa Design](https://holistictree.co.uk/products/palo-santo-heater-wood): From £10.99
- [Himalayan Incense Bricks, Set of 70 with Holder](https://holistictree.co.uk/products/himalayan-incense-bricks-set-of-70-with-holder): £10.99
- [Tri-Flower Lotus Incense Holder](https://holistictree.co.uk/products/tri-flower-lotus-incense-holder): £9.49

## Which chakra-themed gifts make a meaningful present?

The best chakra-themed gifts are the ones that fit how your friend already practises. Think a stone set for hands-on crystal fans, or a notebook for journal keepers. They all share the chakra idea: seven colours, each linked in tradition to one energy centre.

### [Chakra Stones Set of 7](/products/chakra-stones-set) (from £18.49)

A great gift idea for a yoga lover who is just starting with crystals. You get seven stones, each representing a chakra symbol, so every centre in the tradition has its own stone. Choose large oval stones or small rounded ones, depending on the look you like best. Every stone is a hands-on way to learn the chakra map.

*Best for: Crystal beginners.*

### [Chakra String Bracelet](/products/chakra-string-bracelet) (from £5.49)

Sweet, simple and personal, this bracelet is one to wear every day. Gemstones sit on a string in seven styles, from large donuts to 21 stones, and the mini donuts have an adjustable fit. The string is black, brown or red, chosen at random. Each bracelet comes with a header card with an affirmation to match the style, such as 'I trust my intuition' on the beads.

*Best for: Chakra jewellery lovers.*

### [Chakra Wall Hanging, Rainbow Dream Catcher](/products/chakra-wall-hanging) (£19.49)

A colourful choice for a yoga lover who loves a bit of rainbow in the room. This dream catcher wall hanging is made of wood and measures 86 cm tall and 14 cm wide, with a depth of 1 cm. At 100 g it is light, so it hangs easily on a wall. In the chakra tradition, the rainbow of shades stands for the colours of the energy centres, which makes it a bright, thoughtful piece to unwrap.

*Best for: Rainbow lovers at home.*

### [7 Chakra Gemstone Halo Lamp](/products/gemstone-halo-lamp-7-chakra-7-gems) (£26.49)

If they love crystals, this is the one. Seven natural gemstones sit in a ring, in chakra colours from red to violet, set in a black circular frame on a sturdy base. It is 18 x 10 x 20.5 cm and runs from a USB cable with an inline on/off switch. Please note the USB power adaptor is not included. Each stone's colour, shape and placement vary, so no two lamps look quite alike.

*Best for: Crystal collectors and meditators.*

### [Leather Chakra Notebooks and Journals](/products/leather-buddha-seven-chakra-deckle-edge-notebook) (from £17.99)

Nice to unwrap, nicer to use. These chakra notebooks come in five leather styles. The clasped styles are genuine leather with about 100 deckle-edge pages. One style carries seven chakra colours and symbols on its cover, so the tradition is there every time they open it. A lovely pick for a friend who keeps a journal, sketches or writes after each session.

*Best for: Journal keepers and sketchers.*

## Which drums and malas suit a meditation or yoga practice?

A small tongue drum, a djembe drum or a 108-bead mala each suit a yoga or meditation practice. Together with a round cotton mandala, they give your friend a simple, hands-on way to make practice their own.

### [Steel Tongue Drum with Om Symbol, Red, 16 cm](/products/happy-drum-om-red) (£45.49)

If they love meditation, this is the one. This compact 16 cm steel tongue drum has a bold red finish and an engraved Om symbol, a sacred sound in yoga and meditation. It comes with mallets and a carry bag, so it is ready to play from the box. It plays with light strikes, so there's no training needed. It's a lovely first instrument for a friend who is new to sound in their practice.

*Best for: Beginners who love sound.*

### [Tree of Life Wide Top Djembe Drum 18 cm](/products/tree-of-life-wide-top-djembe-drum) (£26.99)

Ideal for anyone who loves music, this djembe drum is handmade from suar wood with a natural goat skin head. Its detailed Tree of Life artwork is a pretty touch, and the wide top gives warm, resonant tones. It measures 40 x 18 cm. Because the wood is natural, grain and details vary, so no two drums look exactly alike. A lovely pick for a yoga friend who likes rhythm, or a home with a boho touch.

*Best for: Rhythm lovers and boho homes.*

### [Bali Mala Necklace with Rudraksha Beads](/products/bali-mala-necklace) (from £15.99)

Practical and pretty, this Bali mala necklace is strung with 108 beads, including rudraksha beads, glass beads and driftwood. A mala is a string of beads used to keep count in meditation, and its 108 beads are traditionally used to count mantras, the repeated sacred words or sounds. You can pick from seven styles, each in its own colours, from about 42 cm to 58 cm long. It's a lovely gift for a yoga student who likes jewellery and wants something to wear to practice.

*Best for: Yoga students who love jewellery.*

### [Peacock Purple Mandala Cotton Roundie 130 cm](/products/mandala-round-cotton-wall-art-peacock) (£16.99)

For the yoga lover who has everything, this round cotton mandala is a fresh idea. It measures 130 x 130 cm, with purples, soft pinks and peacock-inspired details. The pattern radiates out from the centre, so it looks lovely as wall décor. It's lightweight cotton, and it also works as a table cover or a meditation mat.

*Best for: Boho homes and mandala fans.*

- [Steel Tongue Drum with Om Symbol, Red, 16 cm](https://holistictree.co.uk/products/happy-drum-om-red): £45.49
