What does a girl who lives and breathes that yoga life wish to find beneath the tree? We had to know! One of our favorite (and one of the sweetest) yogis, Tara Stiles, is dishing on what made it to her wishlist and her favorite gifting memories. To note, her favorite things include homemade gifts, pie and the family farm – this is one grounded yogi to be sure. Enjoy Tara’s list here and then peruse a few of Tara’s own fun gift items  for your downward-dogging pals!

Watch for all our Wishlist features throughout the month, including Todd Barket of Unionmade from earlier this week!
