We’ve all been there: starting a health kick from scratch. It isn’t the easiest thing in the world or your life, but once you get the ball rolling, the sky is often the limit. 

So, which wellness trends should you be hopping on from day one? What’s actually going to work (instead of feeling like a fad?)

Gut Health Tracking

Many people start their health recovery journeys with gut health tracking. The more you can improve this, the more likely you are to see changes in your overall mood and wellbeing. 

Foods like kefir and kimchi are at the forefront of this revolution, but the truth is that you can use almost anything that’s high in fiber. These foods will provide your system with probiotics that it can use to create a better microbiome for you. You can also get periodic stool testing to see whether your gut health is improving and you’re getting the bacteria you need to be healthy. 

Digital Detox

Next, you’ll want to turn to your mind and perhaps consider a digital detox. Getting away from screens is essential sometimes, especially if you’re the sort of person who is affected by stress and burnout. 

Starting a digital detox is usually pretty straightforward. All you need to do is set a daily no-phone hour or perhaps even go the entire weekend without your laptop. 

Digital detoxes are something you can try during your free time and perhaps exchange them for something else, like hikes in nature. 

Start Community-Based Well-Being

You could also start taking part in community-based well-being sessions. These can boost your physical and mental health, and give you a social aspect to being healthy that changes how you feel. 

For example, you might want to get into classes or group yoga. You could also go to a skating or running club if there is one in your area. 

Add Bone Broth To Your Diet

Another strategy for getting on a quick health kick is to add bone broth to your diet. This substance is championed throughout the health community for its beneficial effects on well-being. 

These days, it’s easy to find the right bone broth combo bundle for wellness for you. All you need to do is look around. 

Usually, the benefits of bone broth begin to accrue after several weeks. You may find that your joints are less stiff and that you want to be more active. 

Add Low Impact Movement

At the same time, you also want to add low-impact movement to your routine. The gentler you can be with this, the easier it will be for you to build strength so you can move around more in the future. 

These low-impact movements are great for building so-called “healthspan,” which is the number of healthy years you have on the planet. Even simple things like walking can make a tremendous difference and mean that you can continue living well, even into old age where most people start getting problems. Pilates, cycling, and elliptical training all fit into this category.
