Holidays can be confusing. Despite the festive cheer, there is always the flip side. Stressful shopping, heavy traffic, last minute office tasks. Little wonder there is a pinch of pressure covering all the joy. And not even fairy lights or Mariah Carey can save the situation.
Still, there is something about this time of the year far deeper than presents and family dinners. And it’s the act of sharing, which makes it all magical. We won’t get too lyrical here, rather we’ll just say how amazing it is that the art of giving becomes the absolute highlight of these hectic days, despite the stress and moments of anxiety caused by crowds and sales.
They say, the more you give - the happier you feel. Our team fully supports, adopts and follows this way of life. The Jar Healthy Vending regularly donates a portion of profits to support school Breakfast Clubs to make sure that kids are fuelled-up to learn and sends unsold food from The Jar machines directly to charities. Because we believe that a fully healthy body is only achievable when one has a healthy soul.
And since the holiday season is just the right time for being sentimental, The Jar Healthy Vending wants to encourage our beautiful readers to spend some more time on charity this year. And it's important to remember that acts of kindness are not limited to materialistic things, they extend beyond the complicated decisions to the simple smiles you share or a little help you provide without any expectation of a return.
The Christmas might be over, but not the holiday spirit. It will take a while to get all the festivities out of our systems. Our team is not planning to go back to our basic routine just yet. Not before the New Years Eve and definitely not before we share our presents with you.
You are probably intrigued by the title? Yes, you did hear us right. We prepared another odd quiz for our readers. To make this not only sentimental, but fun too. We want you to try guess what is inside the wrapped gift.
Hint: they contain The Jar Healthy Vending best-selling products.
This could be a bottle of red wine and a bag of delicious biscotti, but we are pro-healthy lifestyle so it's something that brings a different type of joy. A better one. The one that makes you "aww" a lot. Any guesses?
Pretty obvious one. The gift characterises a very self-conscious and self-aware person. The one who takes care of their eating habits a lot. May be for a biohacker, a vegan or healthy lifestyle activist. Our team wants one really bad.
This is a big yes for those, who are always cold in this cold season. One rare case when a cold drink actually warms better than hot tea. And it's not alcohol, jsyk.
These are truly odd presents and packaging. Have you had any ideas of what could be inside?
It's a puppy! And our amazing Karma Ginger Ale. Also, our own The Jar t-shirt that tells much more about you as a self-conscious person (will soon come to you in it's super classy form, you'd want one too) and healthy cheese-flavoured popcorn from Popcorn Shed. The last one has all the essentials, do take your mom's advice and wear a hat during winter. Take our advice, and start your day with our super shots from Press with ginger and pepper to keep you warm. Hearty!
What you give out is what comes back in direct proportions to the feelings you have in the act of giving. Next time you are getting something for yourself from our healthy vending machine, get a small thoughtful snack for your colleague too! Sharing is caring.
Happy holidays from The Jar Healthy Vending!
