From ancient rituals finding a futuristic twist to cutting-edge tech that promises serenity at the touch of a button, the world of wellness in 2025 is anything but predictable. This year, self-care isn’t just about scented candles and bubble baths; brands are working extra shifts to serve wellness services that feel straight out of a sci-fi novel.
“As we step into 2025, women’s health is taking center stage, driven by a global shift toward natural and holistic therapies as alternatives to conventional medicine,” shares Mahesh Natarajan, COO of IHHR Hospitality (Ananda in the Himalayas). The growing recognition of the intricate mind-body connection, particularly how stress, emotional well-being, and hormonal balance intertwine, is fueling this movement. Holistic wellness therapies that seamlessly blend physical relaxation techniques with mental health practices, such as meditation, massage, and mindfulness, are proving to be powerful tools for managing hormonal fluctuations.
Highlighting the importance of personalized well-being in 2025, Dr. Rajesh Srinivas, General Manager at Swastik Wellbeing, explains, “The programs we design for each of our guests — whom we call ‘Seekers’ — draw from traditional Indian healing systems dating back over 3,000 years. We combine this wisdom with modern diagnostics, comprehensive medical tests, and an evidence-based approach. When a Seeker arrives at Swastik, they receive a complete health assessment, including blood tests, X-rays, and MRIs, along with non-invasive diagnostics. This allows us to create a holistic, customized wellness journey tailored to their unique health needs.”

For Pooja Bihani, Founder and Lead Designer of The Prana Homes, wellness is more than a design trend — it’s a philosophy deeply intertwined with her personal practice of Pranic Healing, honed over 18 transformative years. “Consumers today are seeking wellness solutions that blend seamlessly into their daily lives,” she shares. There’s a growing fascination with sustainable living, mindfulness-driven design, and technology that enhances well-being. In a similar spirit of holistic well-being, Ananda’s emotional healing program bridges Western behavioral sciences with Eastern philosophies, emphasizing the profound mind-body connection as facets of one unified consciousness. “Guests are guided on a journey to uncover the root causes of health challenges and emotional barriers by tapping into the subconscious mind”, shares Mahesh Natarajan, COO of IHHR Hospitality (Ananda in the Himalayas). Techniques like transpersonal hypnotherapy, regression therapy, inner child work, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), and personalized coaching pave the path to self-discovery and transformation. What sets this approach apart is its harmonious integration with Ananda’s other wellness pillars, including yoga therapy, Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and physiotherapy. This multidimensional model provides holistic support for emotional and physical well-being. Coupled with Ananda’s tranquil natural surroundings, it offers guests a sanctuary for reflection, renewal, and profound personal growth.
The people at Swastik take bio-hacking very seriously, shares Dr. Rajesh Srinivas, General Manager at Swastik Wellbeing. “Our bio hacking toolkit includes many natural bio healing methods such as Grounding to discharge electromagnetic pollution, Salt therapy, Sun based circadian rhythm programs, IR saunas, Ice cold dips, Neurolinguistic programming, Sound immersions, Elemental cleanse, Ice showers and many more heart crafted experiences,” he adds.
As the world places a sharper focus on mental health, consumers are becoming increasingly mindful of their surroundings and what they engage with. At Prana Homes, wellness is woven into the fabric of everyday living. “We craft products that seamlessly blend functionality with spirituality,” says Pooja Bihani, Founder and Lead Designer of The Prana Homes. “Our designs are deeply intentional, aimed at inspiring inner peace, balance, and mindfulness. By integrating elements like space harmonics, color therapy, and tactile materials, we create offerings that nurture emotional and psychological well-being. Every interaction with our products becomes a meaningful step toward improved mental health.” The brand’s debut collection, Yin Yang, marks the first chapter in this transformative journey.
Taking a complementary approach to mental wellness, Ananda’s Dhyana Meditation Programme draws from the classical Raja Yoga tradition, offering a holistic method to master the mind. The programme guides participants through a structured process—from sensory withdrawal (Pratyahara) and focused concentration (Dharana) to the pinnacle of meditative absorption, Dhyana, where a state of expanded consciousness is achieved. By cultivating mental discipline and inner harmony, this time-honored practice fosters clarity, balance, and profound personal growth.
