Whilst the wellness industry has historically been dominated by young, affluent white women, this tide has now well and truly turned. No longer are inner balance and clean living the exclusive pursuits of female vegans with their own yoga mats… In fact, particularly since the beginning of Covid, more people than ever, both young and old and from every walk of life, are seeking more holistic ways to feel happier and healthier.
As a yoga teacher, I am seeing an unprecedented number of men coming to the mat to boost mind as well as body (recent stats showed a 30% rise in men attending yoga classes in the last 3 years); older people are more open to exploring complementary medicine than ever before, often to address common ailments conventional medicine is not fixing; parents are seeking more holistic ways to support the physical and mental health of their children and teens; and pregnant women and new mums are taking up hypnobirthing, yoga, Pilates and natural therapies / remedies in order to approach their labour and beyond in the most natural way possible.
But being optimally well isn’t just about running on a treadmill – it’s about focussing on all aspects of our health and wellbeing – our bodies, our minds, our emotional health and our sense of equilibrium so we can cope better in our crazy, unpredictable world. Everybody has a right to feel good. At Seed, we do our best to reach beyond the traditional stereotypes to make wellness accessible to everybody.
As our medical system continues to struggle under intense pressure, surely now is the time to take our health and wellbeing into our own hands. And making positive diet and lifestyle choices is one great way to start. There is so much out there to help us feel better, live better and provide us with the necessary tools so we can better navigate life’s challenges. We just have to be prepared to make that step. As the saying goes, our health is our wealth!
