6 Wellness Trends To Watch In 2017

Get your fix of wellness and things that inspire us.

1. Plant protein
You heard it here first! Ok technically we didn’t invent the idea but we were early supporters. Gone is the idea that protein has to come from an animal. The combination of pea and brown rice protein gives you all 9 essential amino acids, without the hormones or nasties. Plants are the future of protein, best for the environment, best for you - especially in our delicious Nourishing Proteins.

2. Inflammation fighting foods
Inflammation is linked to everything from bloating, acne to life threatening illnesses, say the experts. Expect to hear it on everyone’s lips.

Broccoli
Broccoli is one of the best sources of sulforaphane, an antioxidant with powerful anti-inflammatory effects.
Blueberries
Contain a broad range of antioxidants, specifically resveratrol, gallic acid and proanthocyanidins, which protect you from oxidative stress and have been shown to reduce markers of inflammation.
Ginger
Ginger has been a prized food in Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years owing to its powerful immune-boosting and cleansing properties. It is rich in inflammation-fighting compounds that have been shown to help with pain relief.
Turmeric
Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties which help with everything from pain relief to managing chronic disease.

3. Workleisure
Yep, it’s going to be a thing. From new lifestyle brands like P.E. Nation, Aday, Betabrand, and Kit and Ace to activewear stalwarts like Lululemon and Under Armour, the companies that dress you for the gym now want to dress you for the office.

4. Rest and recover
To all you HIIT, F45 and generally high intensity exercise fans, this is for you. Tough workouts aren’t fading away, but people are finally focusing on good habits, recovery classes, and self-care products to offset their physical toll.

5. Next level wellness retreats
Curated experiences developed by leading wellness insiders are set to sky rocket in 2017. From a week with your yoga teacher in Cuba to clean eating, daily workouts and massage in Botswana, it’s everything you’ve ever dreamed of and more. Our top pick? The COMO Shambhala Estate in Bali provides a completely immersive, 360-degree wellbeing experience. Including programs designed for stays of different lengths—three, five or seven nights—with therapies focused on different purposes (stress, rejuvenation and oriental medicine).

6. Nourishing from within
