Mother\u2019s Day is almost here, and if you\u2019ve been stumped about what to get the mother figure in your life, there are plenty of gifts to consider depending on her interests. If your mother is into wellness and self-care, there are thoughtful items to choose from at various prices. A gift could be anything from a massage gun to skincare tools or even a smart ring.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As a mom who prioritizes wellness and regularly tests health tech and tools, I\u2019m aware of the products out there that can appeal to a mom with similar interests. Below are some of my top gift ideas for the wellness-oriented mom in your life.<\/p>\n

Brick<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Brick is one of CNET\u2019s Editors\u2019 Choice tech picks to help limit screen time. If the mom in your life is trying to cut back on doomscrolling for her mental health or wants designated focus time without phone distractions, she\u2019ll appreciate one of these tools. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve tested Brick when I wanted to limit how often I checked social media, and I appreciated how easy it was to set up and use on my iPhone. It\u2019s a small block that syncs with the app on your phone and lets you customize the times you\u2019d like certain apps and websites blocked, while still allowing you to access your phone. <\/p>\n

You can\u2019t cheat because if you click on the “bricked” app, you see a prompt that reminds you that it\u2019s been blocked. The only way to unlock your phone is to have Brick on hand to deactivate the lock.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Oura Ring 4<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Sleep becomes a luxury once you become a mom, so why not motivate her to get as much rest as possible with an Oura Ring? The Oura Ring is CNET\u2019s favorite smart ring because it does a good job of helping you establish better sleep habits. Additionally, it can read how well-rested you are on a daily basis, your stress levels, heart rate and much more. If you\u2019re shopping for a mom who wants a health tracker but doesn\u2019t love how bulky smartwatches look, the Oura Ring is sleek and subtle, available in various finishes with ceramic options.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A massage gun is always a good idea for the mom who tends to deal with muscle aches from being on their feet all day at work or from workouts. The Theragun Mini 3 is the perfect massage gun because it\u2019s compact and quiet. At its lowest setting, it\u2019s still a powerful massage gun and comes with three head attachments.

Red light therapy devices are all the rage right now and are used as part of a skin care, self-care or recovery routine. They use LED lights and are a non-invasive way to stimulate cellular regeneration. The Shark CryoGlow is CNET\u2019s top red light therapy device pick, which is an FDA-approved LED mask.
