Theme of Global Wellness Day 2025

#ReconnectMagenta is the theme for Global Wellness Day this year. It emphasizes encouraging people to reconnect with themselves, communities, friends, family, and nature. This would result in maintaining a healthy relationship and enhancing overall well-being. 

The Origins of Global Wellness Day

Global Wellness Day was founded in 2012 by Belgin Aksoy, a dedicated wellness advocate and social entrepreneur. Her health struggles, including her battle with cancer, deeply influenced her mission to inspire healthier lifestyles worldwide. Recognizing the transformative power of wellness, she envisioned a day dedicated to raising awareness about physical and mental well-being.

Belgin’s goal was to encourage individuals, communities, and organizations to pause, reflect, and prioritize their health. Her guiding principle – “One day can change your whole life” – became the foundation of the movement. With support from the Turkish Ministry of Health, she launched the first Global Wellness Day, creating a platform for people worldwide to embrace healthier habits and sustainable well-being.

Today, the annual event continues to grow, uniting millions in the shared pursuit of a happier, healthier future.

How can prioritizing your health help you?

Your health is the first thing that will allow you to work wonders. If your health is not good or it is deteriorating for any reason, then you cannot focus on anything, even your job or business. Maintaining good health can help you in numerous ways and enhance your years of living. Your health should always come first. This day is vital for us as it reminds us to take care of our well-being. This even helps us to have a holistic approach to self-care.
