Breakups suck. Whether your friend ended things, got blindsided, or just needs a soft place to land, the right gesture can go a long way.
You don’t need to say the perfect thing; just showing up helps.
And sometimes, a small gift does the talking for you.
Here are some thoughtful, gentle breakup gift ideas that say: I'm here for you.
1. Something to Help Them Sleep
Breakups can make it nearly impossible to rest.
A few spritzes of our Lavender + Cedarwood Pillow Spray can help calm the nervous system and ease the transition into sleep.

2. A Handwritten Note
Don’t underestimate the power of a short, honest message. Even a simple "I'm thinking of you" or "This sucks, but I'm here" can make a world of difference.
3. Something to Hold
Whether it’s a warm pair of Wool Socks, a smooth stone, or a soft cushion, having something to physically hold can be grounding when emotions are high.

4. A Good Cup of Tea
A calming blend like our Unwind Tea can feel like a small, drinkable exhale. Pair it with a handwritten note for a mini ritual of care.

5. A Way to Reset
When tears and tension have taken their toll, a Green Tea Konjac Sponge is a simple way to help them feel refreshed. No big overhaul, just one small step.

6. Something to Write In
Journaling won’t fix a broken heart, but it can help make sense of the pieces. The Note to Self Journal is simple and approachable; no pressure to perform or heal.

7. A Way to Escape
A new playlist, a soothing podcast, or a good book can offer a break from the spiral of thoughts. Print out a few personal suggestions to include with your gift.
8. Something That Smells Good
Scent has a quiet power. A calming balm or bath soak can offer a moment of reset when they’re ready for it.

9. A Tiny Treat
A square of Chai Caramel Latte Chocolate or their favourite sweet, no need to overthink it. Sometimes, a small indulgence says, "You still deserve nice things."
