Wellness Trends We're Getting Into In 2023
In 2023, we're taking off the pressure to be perfect. We're adopting these helpful health and wellbeing trends instead!
Welcome to the new year. 10 days into 2023 and we're already gearing up for an exciting year ahead, armed with the newest mindsets in wellness. If there's anything to be learned from the past few years of the pandemic, it's that our wellness is top priority—physically, mentally, and emotionally, and that by no means should one be 'perfect' to achieve such.
Long gone are the days when being 'well' meant you had to be clad in Alo yoga workout clothes, doing a 10-day juice cleanse, and maintaining a strict 1,200-calorie diet. In 2023, we're more forgiving of ourselves, and we allow for space to navigate an already complicated world of wellness. Experiencing much stress and grief from the pandemic has taught us to listen to our bodies more, and to allow others to do the same. We're cutting out judgment and perfectionism, and instead, are aiming for sustainable health and wellbeing habits we can take with us in the long run.
In the gallery below, we've rounded up a bunch of wellness trends we're getting into for the year 2023 and beyond. By no means should you practice every single one. Instead, study and experiment for yourself, and find what works. We're here to cheer you on. Have a healthy, happy, whole 2023!

Micro Workouts
In 2023, we're doing little bits of exercise here and there, thanks to fitness influencers all over Instagram and TikTok. Need a midday stretch on your desk? How about a leisurely walk with a podcast in your ear? How about a 15-minute full body dance routine in the morning? There's no more pressure to spend hours on end in the gym, thanks to this new trend.

Recovery
In 2023, there will be an emphasis on recovery, especially in between workouts. Specialized brands like Fixilab will be all the rage, offering services like Cryotherapy, which involves applying extreme cold substances like liquid nitrogen, to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue and release endorphins that help soften skin, relax the muscles, reduce cellulite, aid recovery, and strengthen the whole-body function.

Sleep Health
You don't have to sleep just 4 hours a night to be considered efficient. Adults need at least 7 hours of sleep per night, so in 2023, we're brushing up on our sleep health. This includes rethinking our exposure to light during the day, and lessening it at night, to help sync with our circadian rhythm. It also means designing our bedrooms in such a way that it is more conducive to healthy sleep every single night.

Spa Days
Don't just go into a spa for a massage, spend an entire day in it! Wellness retreats, whether in the city or out of town, will be all the more trendy and ~essential~ as we go into 2023. Recovery of both mind and body are key, so be sure to mark your calendar for wellness days such as these!

Sober Curiosity
Getting drunk out of your wits is not trendy, nor will it ever be a good idea. In 2023, rethinking your alcohol intake is the trend to follow, with the market serving more options like mocktails or naked cocktails in their menu. Who says you can't enjoy a good drink without the negative effects? You totally can!

Spirituality & Purpose
The pandemic has made more people realize the importance of finding a reason bigger than ourselves. A sense of purpose, a sense of believing in something bigger than us. Don't be surprised if more and more people are gaining momentum in their spirituality—it's not just a trend but a way of life.
