A Fresh Start: Top Health, Wellness, and Fitness Trends of 2022

As we embark on a new year, there’s a sense of hope and renewal in the air. After a tumultuous couple of years, we’re eager to prioritize our well-being and make positive changes in our lives. Here are the top health, wellness, and fitness trends that will shape 2022 and help us achieve our goals.

Wellness as a Way of Life

In 2022, self-care won’t be just another item on your to-do list; it’ll be an integral part of who you are. With the world becoming increasingly unpredictable, people are recognizing the importance of taking care of their bodies and minds. We’ll see a rise in functional furniture, intuitive wearables, and thoughtfully designed clothing that seamlessly incorporates wellness into daily life.

Affordable Smart Fitness

The smart fitness industry is about to get a whole lot more accessible. Following Peloton’s price drop in 2021, other companies are taking note. As ClassPass reports, group fitness and gym workouts are back in vogue, and digital fitness companies will need to compete with real-life gyms. This means lower prices on home gym equipment and more innovation in the industry.

Embracing Menstrual Wellness

It’s time to make peace with our periods. Gone are the days of wishing them away; instead, we’re embracing them as a natural part of life. With Pinterest predicting “Mindful Menstruation” as a top trend, we’ll see more companies and products emerge to make period tracking, pain relief, and sustainable products more accessible.

The Food Renaissance

After two years of isolation, we’re ready to reconnect – with family, friends, and food traditions. Farm-to-table is still dominating our collective food consciousness, and we’ll see more people growing their own herbs, fermenting, and sprouting. Even in urban areas, technology is making it possible to make food the old-fashioned way.

Customized Everything

The “one size fits all” approach to health and wellness is finally falling by the wayside. Brands are now offering individualized services and products tailored to each person’s unique needs. We’ll see a rise in customized supplements, workout plans, accessories, and more, crafted with the individual in mind.
