Present help for hippy SIL's 50th birthday

SIL is going to be 50 and DP is being a bit slow on the present front.

She is very hippy and alternative, which isn't my world at all so I don't want to fall into a cliched trap and think narrowly about it.

She is a Wirral-based vegetarian yoga teacher and masseuse, has a degree in fine art and lots of artistic/crafty inclinations but not a good workspace and doesn't necessarily work at art in a sustained way.

Things she has liked recently:
Pagan flower headdress crafting lessons
Indian squeezebox instrument that looks like an accordion for chanting
Bell tent and accessories
Foraging course
Drumming camp

All of this is so alien to me! But I want to get her either a thing or an experience she will really like and if anyone has a great idea I would be really grateful. Particularly in the Wirral/Liverpool/north Wales area. Budget is not really an issue as DP is feeling guilty about not getting it sorted sooner and will throw money at it if necessary.

Ethically sourced semi precious stone beads. Apparently they have different properties and can influence the wearer in positive ways.

This might appeal to her, especially if you can find a maker who can make it especially for her with meaning.

Something from this wonderful shop in Heswall! They do gift vouchers too - great range of courses, home to the Wirral Candle company and stockists of lots of eco friendly gifts and locally produced art and beautifully made gifts - it's a real treasure trove!

A himalayen salt rock lamp.

Good for breathing issues apparently. Look lovely!

Good idea. I got a couple as presents a few years ago and absolutely love them.
