When was the last time you had a nice one-on-one chat with someone? Nowadays, even the most intimate conversations often take place via chat, text messages and voice messages, without real contact with the interlocutor.
But something is changing: for the first time in eight new global ‘wellness’ trends for the new yearaccording to the GWI (Global Wellness Institute) and Pinterest surveys, there’s really learning to ‘really chat’a requirement that in fact comes in sixth place.
At the first there is the mania for body care, at the second a physical activity that we had abandoned, such as badminton or shuttlecock, followed by attempts to detoxify ourselves from the screens of the digital world.
In fifth place among the new wellness trends is the boom in martial arts such as karate, kickboxing and jiu-jitsu, which guarantee excellent ‘cardio’ training and reduce aggression and difficulties in relating to others.
So, in sixth place, here comes the ‘big talk’! Il good purpose is to recover human connections and relationships through real contact, learn to have ‘meaningful conversations’ without the filter of the cell phone. A need particularly felt by Generation Z and Millennials.
The attempt to create social and relationship bonds, start and sustain conversations, passes through board games and apps, which are often modern versions of ancient games such as a game of cards or ‘Truth or Dare’.
The 2024 wellness ranking closes with the desire to be sober, eliminating excess kilos and reducing the consumption of alcoholic beverages.
