The Biggest Wellness Trends of 2025 — and Predictions for 2026 (Part 2)

What really defined wellness in 2025 — and what’s actually worth carrying forward into 2026?

In this second part of our end-of-year health and wellness roundup, I’m joined by health coach and speaker Vanessa Sturman to unpack the biggest wellness shifts of the past year — from the rise of biohacking studios and body scanners to the growing focus on nervous-system regulation, gentler movement, nature-based health and recovery.

We talk about the wellness products and technologies that genuinely stood out, why retreat culture and luxury wellness travel exploded, and how tools like wearables, red light therapy and sauna became mainstream. We also explore some of the more complex conversations of 2025 — including AI therapy and where the line sits between helpful innovation and too much optimisation.

As we look ahead to 2026, Vanessa shares her thoughts on which wellness trends feel meaningful, which might fade away, and the ideas she’s most excited to watch.
