Breakups are hard, whether you’re the one who ended it or the one left picking up the pieces.
The right post-breakup gift can’t fix everything, but it can offer comfort, a little sign that healing is underway.
From tea and chocolate to small rituals of rest, these gifts are designed to help someone move through the sadness, one quiet moment at a time.
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. The Breakup Care Package
When someone you love is going through a breakup, words alone can feel too small. This ready-to-send care package is designed to comfort, encourage, and remind her she isn’t facing it alone.
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."
Post Breakup Gifts That Feel Supportive, Not Sad
If you’re choosing something for a friend after a breakup, focus on gifts that remind them of their own strength, not the loss. Think warmth, nourishment, and new beginnings: tea, chocolate, journals, self-care treats.
