19 Wellness Tricks You’ll Want to Share

ByRemedyAura Team

In an era where health information is at our fingertips, the real challenge isn’t finding advice—it’s finding advice that actually works and fits into a busy lifestyle. Wellness is not a destination but a series of small, intentional choices made daily. These 19 wellness tricks are designed to optimize your biology, boost your mental clarity, and provide long-lasting vitality. More than just tips, these are actionable “hacks” accompanied by nutrient-dense recipes to ensure you can implement them immediately.

1. The Golden Milk Ritual for Total Body Inflammation

Inflammation is the silent driver behind many modern ailments, from joint pain to digestive issues. Turmeric, containing the active compound curcumin, is one of the most powerful natural anti-inflammatories known to science. However, curcumin is difficult for the body to absorb on its own. This wellness trick uses fat and black pepper to increase curcumin absorption by up to 2,000%.

The Recipe: Anti-Inflammatory Golden Milk

This warm, soothing beverage is perfect before bed or as a caffeine-free afternoon pick-me-up.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of unsweetened almond or coconut milk
  • 1 tsp organic turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • A pinch of black pepper (essential for absorption)
  • 1 tsp raw honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil or ghee (healthy fats for absorption)

How to Cook It:

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the almond milk, turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper.
  2. Whisk the mixture over medium-low heat until it begins to steam. Do not let it reach a vigorous boil, as high heat can degrade some of the turmeric’s beneficial compounds.
  3. Add the coconut oil or ghee and continue to whisk for 2 minutes to ensure the fats are emulsified.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in your sweetener of choice.
  5. Pour into a mug and sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top. Sip slowly and mindfully.

2. The Apple Cider Vinegar Morning Tonic for Blood Sugar Control

Spiking blood sugar levels leads to energy crashes and insulin resistance. A simple wellness trick used by biohackers worldwide is consuming diluted Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) before meals. ACV contains acetic acid, which slows down the conversion of carbohydrates into sugar, keeping your energy stable.

The Recipe: The Morning Metabolism Spark

A refreshing tonic that wakes up your digestive enzymes without the harshness of a straight shot of vinegar.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups of lukewarm filtered water
  • 1 to 2 tbsp raw, unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar (with “The Mother”)
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger or 1 inch of fresh ginger root, sliced
  • A dash of cayenne pepper (to boost thermogenesis)
  • The juice of half a lemon

How to Cook It:

  1. Start with lukewarm water. Using boiling water can kill the beneficial bacteria in the “mother” of the vinegar.
  2. Stir in the Apple Cider Vinegar and lemon juice.
  3. Add the ginger and cayenne pepper. If using fresh ginger, let it steep for 5 minutes before drinking.
  4. Stir vigorously and drink through a straw to protect your tooth enamel from the acidity.
  5. Consume this 15–20 minutes before your first meal of the day.

3. Overnight Chia Pudding for Sustained Satiety

Fiber is the unsung hero of weight management and gut health. Chia seeds are a nutritional powerhouse, capable of holding 10 times their weight in water. This wellness trick ensures you stay full for hours, preventing the “mid-morning slump” and supporting a healthy microbiome.

The Recipe: Berry-Infused Omega-3 Pudding

A meal-prep friendly breakfast that feels like a dessert but acts like a superfood.

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup black chia seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened soy or cashew milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp hemp hearts (for extra protein)
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tsp maple syrup (optional)

How to Cook It:

  1. In a glass mason jar, combine the chia seeds, hemp hearts, and plant milk.
  2. Add the vanilla extract and maple syrup. Stir vigorously with a spoon for at least 60 seconds.
  3. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, then stir again. This prevents the seeds from clumping at the bottom.
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  5. Seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, though overnight is best.
  6. In the morning, the seeds will have absorbed the liquid, creating a thick, pudding-like consistency. Top with a few crushed walnuts for crunch.

4. The Green Goddess Smoothie for Micronutrient Flooding

Most people struggle to get the recommended 5–9 servings of vegetables per day. This wellness trick allows you to “flood” your system with bioavailable vitamins and minerals in one go. By blending instead of juicing, you retain the fiber, which is crucial for digestive health.

The Recipe: The Daily Detox Green Smoothie

A nutrient-dense blend that focuses on greens rather than high-sugar fruits.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups organic baby spinach or kale
  • 1/2 green apple (for tart sweetness)
  • 1/4 avocado (for creaminess and healthy fats)
  • 1 small Lebanese cucumber
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley or cilantro (heavy metal detoxifiers)
  • 1 cup coconut water
  • 1 tsp spirulina powder (optional superfood boost)

How to Cook It:

  1. Wash all produce thoroughly.
  2. Place the spinach and coconut water into a high-speed blender first. Blend on low until the leaves are completely liquefied.
  3. Add the cucumber, apple, avocado, and herbs.
  4. Blend on high until the texture is silky smooth.
  5. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of water or a few ice cubes.
  6. Pour into a glass and drink immediately to prevent oxidation of the nutrients.

5. Homemade Bone Broth for Gut Lining Repair

Modern diets are often high in processed foods that can damage the gut lining, leading to “leaky gut.” Bone broth is rich in collagen, glycine, and glutamine—amino acids that literally “seal and heal” the digestive tract. This trick is a cornerstone of ancestral wellness.

The Recipe: 24-Hour Healing Bone Broth

A rich, savory broth that serves as the perfect base for soups or a nourishing warm drink.

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs high-quality beef or chicken bones (preferably grass-fed/organic)
  • 2 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar (to extract minerals from the bones)
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 2 stalks of celery, chopped
  • 1 onion, halved with skins on (for color)
  • 4 cloves of garlic, smashed
  • 1 tsp sea salt and 1 tsp whole peppercorns
  • Enough filtered water to cover the bones (about 12-14 cups)

How to Cook It:

  1. If using beef bones, roast them in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 30 minutes until browned. This enhances the flavor.
  2. Place the bones in a large slow cooker or heavy-bottomed stockpot.
  3. Add the vegetables, garlic, salt, peppercorns, and Apple Cider Vinegar.
  4. Cover with filtered water. Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes (the vinegar needs time to start breaking down the bone minerals).
  5. Bring to a low boil, then immediately reduce to a very low simmer.
  6. Simmer for 12–24 hours (if using a stovetop, do not leave unattended). Skim off any foam that rises to the top.
  7. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and discard the solids.
  8. Store in glass jars in the fridge. Once cooled, a layer of fat will form on top—you can remove this or stir it back in.

6. Probiotic Quick-Pickled Onions for Microbiome Diversity

Probiotics aren’t just in expensive supplements. Fermented foods provide a diverse array of bacteria that support immunity and mood. While traditional fermentation takes weeks, this “quick-pickle” wellness trick provides a digestive boost using the power of vinegar and raw vegetables.

The Recipe: Tangy Pink Probiotic Onions

Add these to salads, tacos, or eggs for a burst of flavor and gut-friendly enzymes.

Ingredients:

  • 1 large red onion, thinly sliced into half-moons
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1/2 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp raw honey or maple syrup
  • 1.5 tsp sea salt
  • Optional: 1 tsp peppercorns or a pinch of red pepper flakes

How to Cook It:

  1. Place the sliced red onions into a clean glass pint jar.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the warm water, vinegar, salt, and sweetener until dissolved.
  3. Pour the liquid over the onions, ensuring they are completely submerged.
  4. Add the peppercorns or red pepper flakes.
  5. Let the jar sit at room temperature for 1 hour. The onions will turn a vibrant pink.
  6. Cover and refrigerate. They are ready to eat immediately but the flavor improves after 24 hours.

7. Turmeric and Ginger “Immunity Shots”

When you feel a cold coming on, skip the sugary “vitamin” drinks and go straight to the source. This concentrated wellness trick delivers a potent dose of antimicrobial and antiviral compounds directly to your system.

The Recipe: The Flu-Fighter Shot

Warning: This is spicy and intense, but incredibly effective!

Ingredients:

  • 3 inches fresh ginger root, peeled
  • 2 inches fresh turmeric root, peeled
  • 1 lemon, peeled and seeded
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup coconut water or orange juice
  • 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

How to Cook It:

  1. Roughly chop the ginger and turmeric.
  2. If you have a juicer, run the ginger, turmeric, and lemon through it.
  3. If using a blender, add the ginger, turmeric, lemon, pepper, and liquid. Blend on high until a pulp forms.
  4. Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth or fine strainer, squeezing out every drop of juice.
  5. Stir in the olive oil (the fat helps absorb the turmeric).
  6. Pour into small shot glasses. This recipe makes about 4 shots. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

8. Magnesium-Rich Almond Butter Energy Balls

Magnesium is involved in over 300 biochemical reactions in the body, yet most adults are deficient. It helps with muscle relaxation and stress management. This wellness trick involves creating a snack that specifically targets magnesium and healthy fats to stabilize nerves and energy.

The Recipe: Cacao & Almond Magnesium Bites

The perfect afternoon snack to stop sugar cravings in their tracks.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup creamy almond butter (no added sugar)
  • 1/4 cup raw cacao powder (high in magnesium)
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (certified gluten-free if needed)
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp flaxseeds
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • A pinch of sea salt

How to Cook It:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond butter and maple syrup until smooth.
  2. Stir in the cacao powder and salt.
  3. Gradually add the oats, chia seeds, and flaxseeds. The dough should be thick and slightly sticky.
  4. If it’s too wet, add another tablespoon of oats. If too dry, add a teaspoon of water.
  5. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands.
  6. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

9. Roasted Chickpeas: The Ultimate High-Protein Snack Swap

Potato chips are a source of empty calories and inflammatory seed oils. This wellness trick involves swapping processed snacks for roasted legumes. Chickpeas provide the “crunch” factor while delivering a significant amount of plant-based protein and prebiotic fiber.

The Recipe: Smoked Paprika Roasted Chickpeas

Better than chips, these are addictive and nutrient-dense.

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (15 oz) organic chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

How to Cook It:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. The secret to crispiness: Dry the chickpeas thoroughly. Use a clean kitchen towel to pat them dry. Remove any loose skins.
  3. In a bowl, toss the dry chickpeas with the oil until evenly coated.
  4. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Do not add spices yet (they can burn).
  5. Roast for 20–30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through.
  6. Once they are crunchy and golden, remove from the oven and immediately toss with the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
  7. Let them cool completely before eating—they get even crunchier as they cool.

10. Beetroot Juice for Natural Stamina and Blood Flow

Beets are rich in dietary nitrates, which the body converts into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide relaxes blood vessels, improving circulation and lowering blood pressure. This wellness trick is a favorite among athletes for improving oxygen delivery to muscles.

The Recipe: The Stamina Circulator Juice

A vibrant, earthy drink that boosts nitric oxide production.

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium raw beets, scrubbed and quartered
  • 2 stalks of celery
  • 1 green apple
  • 1/2 inch fresh ginger
  • The juice of half a lime

How to Cook It:

  1. Process the beets, celery, apple, and ginger through a juicer.
  2. Stir in the fresh lime juice. Lime helps cut the earthiness of the beets and adds a dose of Vitamin C.
  3. If you don’t have a juicer, blend the ingredients with 1/2 cup of water and strain through a nut milk bag.
  4. Drink this 30–60 minutes before a workout or in the morning for a caffeine-free energy boost.

11. Ashwagandha Moon Milk for Deep Sleep

Chronic stress keeps cortisol levels high, making it impossible to fall into a deep, restorative sleep. Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb that helps the body manage stress. This wellness trick uses “Moon Milk”—an ancient Ayurvedic remedy—to signal to your brain that it’s time to rest.

The Recipe: Vanilla Ashwagandha Sleep Tonic

A creamy, floral drink designed to lower cortisol before bed.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups cashew milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 1/2 tsp organic ashwagandha powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • A pinch of nutmeg
  • 1 tsp raw honey (added after cooling slightly)
  • 1/2 tsp dried culinary lavender (optional)

How to Cook It:

  1. Warm the cashew milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
  2. Whisk in the ashwagandha powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Use a small hand frother if you have one to make it extra creamy.
  3. If using lavender, add it to the pot and let it steep for 3 minutes, then strain.
  4. Remove from heat. Once the milk is no longer scalding, stir in the honey.
  5. Drink this 30 minutes before you intend to sleep. Avoid screens while drinking to allow the adaptogens to work effectively.

12. Lemon & Himalayan Salt Water for Adrenal Support

Upon waking, most people are dehydrated. Coffee, while delicious, is a diuretic and can stress the adrenals if consumed on an empty stomach. This wellness trick involves an “Adrenal Cocktail” to rehydrate and replenish electrolytes lost overnight.

The Recipe: The Morning Hydration Hit

A simple yet powerful way to balance your internal chemistry first thing in the morning.

Ingredients:

  • 12 oz filtered room-temperature water
  • 1/2 fresh lemon, squeezed
  • 1/4 tsp pink Himalayan sea salt (contains 84 trace minerals)
  • Optional: 1 tsp cream of tartar (for a potassium boost)

How to Cook It:

  1. Pour the water into a large glass.
  2. Add the fresh lemon juice.
  3. Stir in the Himalayan salt until completely dissolved.
  4. Drink the entire glass before having your morning coffee or tea. This helps “wake up” your cellular hydration and supports the adrenal glands.

13. Matcha Latte for Sustained Focus (No Jitters)

Unlike coffee, which provides a sharp spike and crash, Matcha contains L-theanine. This amino acid promotes a state of “relaxed alertness.” This wellness trick is perfect for anyone who needs to focus for long periods without the anxiety associated with caffeine.

The Recipe: Ceremonial Grade Matcha Latte

Learn the proper way to whisk matcha to avoid clumps and bitterness.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp ceremonial grade matcha powder
  • 2 oz hot water (175°F/80°C – not boiling!)
  • 1 cup oat milk or coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 1 tsp maple syrup (optional)

How to Cook It:

  1. Sift the matcha powder into a bowl to remove any lumps.
  2. Add the 2 oz of hot water. Use a bamboo whisk (chasen) or a small whisk to stir in a “W” motion until a frothy layer of bubbles forms on top.
  3. In a separate pan or milk frother, heat and froth your milk with the vanilla and maple syrup.
  4. Pour the frothed milk over the matcha base.
  5. Enjoy immediately. The combination of L-theanine and caffeine provides 4–6 hours of steady energy.

14. Cucumber & Mint Infused Water for Lymphatic Drainage

The lymphatic system is the body’s “sewage system,” responsible for removing toxins. Unlike the heart, the lymph system doesn’t have a pump. Hydration is key to keeping it flowing. This wellness trick turns boring water into a refreshing tonic that encourages you to drink more and reduces bloating.

The Recipe: The De-Bloat Hydrator

Keep this in a large pitcher and sip throughout the day.

Ingredients:

  • 1 gallon filtered water
  • 1 large organic cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 bunch of fresh mint leaves, slightly bruised
  • 2 limes, sliced
  • 1 inch of ginger, sliced (to aid digestion)

How to Cook It:

  1. In a large glass pitcher or dispenser, place the cucumber, mint, lime, and ginger.
  2. Use a wooden spoon to gently “muddle” or press the ingredients to release their juices and oils.
  3. Fill the pitcher with filtered water.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to let the flavors infuse.
  5. Keep the pitcher topped up with water throughout the day. Replace the produce after 24 hours.

15. Avocado Toast with Hemp Seeds: The Healthy Fat Hack

Not all “avocado toasts” are created equal. Many are served on white bread with little nutritional value. This wellness trick upgrades the classic dish into a hormone-balancing meal by adding complete proteins and complex carbohydrates.

The Recipe: The Hormone-Balance Toast

A nutrient-dense meal that provides healthy fats, fiber, and protein.

Ingredients:

  • 1 slice of sprouted grain bread or sourdough
  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • 2 tbsp hemp seeds (rich in GLA and protein)
  • A squeeze of lemon juice
  • A pinch of red pepper flakes
  • A sprinkle of microgreens or sprouts

How to Cook It:

  1. Toast the bread until firm and golden.
  2. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
  3. Spread the avocado thickly onto the toast.
  4. Generously sprinkle the hemp seeds over the top. Hemp seeds are a “complete” protein, meaning they contain all 9 essential amino acids.
  5. Top with the red pepper flakes and a handful of microgreens for extra enzymes and vitamins.

16. The 15-Minute Quinoa Salad: Complete Plant Protein

Quinoa is one of the few plant foods that contains all nine essential amino acids. This wellness trick focuses on meal-prepping a versatile grain base that keeps you full and supports muscle repair without the heaviness of meat.

The Recipe: Mediterranean Quinoa Power Bowl

A vibrant, colorful salad that stays fresh in the fridge for days.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup dry quinoa, rinsed
  • 2 cups water or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 cup kalamata olives, sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Dressing: 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 clove garlic (minced), salt, and pepper.

How to Cook It:

  1. In a medium pot, combine the quinoa and water/broth. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low.
  2. Simmer for 15 minutes or until all water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
  4. Add the cooled quinoa, tomatoes, cucumber, olives, onion, and parsley to the bowl.
  5. Toss everything together until well-coated. This salad is excellent cold and provides a steady release of energy thanks to its complex carbs and protein.

17. Red Lentil Soup for Heart Health and Fiber

Lentils are a miracle food for longevity. They are packed with folate, iron, and soluble fiber, which helps lower LDL (bad) cholesterol. This wellness trick involves a one-pot meal that is as comforting as it is medicinal.

The Recipe: Healing Red Lentil & Cumin Soup

An easy, budget-friendly soup that freezes beautifully.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup red lentils, rinsed
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can (14 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • Fresh spinach (added at the end)

How to Cook It:

  1. In a large pot, sauté the onion and garlic in a splash of water or oil until translucent.
  2. Add the cumin and turmeric, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add the lentils, broth, and crushed tomatoes.
  4. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the lentils are soft and starting to break down (this creates a creamy texture without dairy).
  5. Just before serving, stir in a handful of fresh spinach and let it wilt in the heat of the soup.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

18. Steamed Fish with Ginger for Omega-3 Optimization

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for brain health and reducing systemic inflammation. Steaming is a superior wellness trick compared to frying, as it preserves the delicate fats in fish and avoids the creation of harmful compounds like acrylamides.

The Recipe: Ginger-Soy Steamed White Fish

A light, clean protein source that supports cognitive function.

Ingredients:

  • 2 white fish fillets (cod, tilapia, or snapper)
  • 2 inches fresh ginger, julienned (cut into matchsticks)
  • 2 scallions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • A few sprigs of fresh cilantro

How to Cook It:

  1. Prepare a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water.
  2. Place the fish fillets on a heat-proof plate that fits inside the steamer.
  3. Top the fish with the julienned ginger.
  4. Place the plate in the steamer, cover, and steam for 8–10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish. The fish should be opaque and flake easily.
  5. Carefully remove the plate. Drizzle the fish with tamari and sesame oil.
  6. Garnish with scallions and cilantro. The ginger infuses the fish, making it incredibly aromatic and aiding in the digestion of the protein.

19. Dark Chocolate Bark with Sea Salt: The Mindful Treat

Wellness isn’t about deprivation; it’s about making better choices. Dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao) is loaded with antioxidants called flavonoids. This wellness trick allows you to satisfy your sweet tooth while actually providing your body with minerals like magnesium and iron.

The Recipe: Superfood Dark Chocolate Bark

A simple way to upgrade your dessert into a nutrient-dense snack.

Ingredients:

  • 2 bars (3.5 oz each) of high-quality 70-85% dark chocolate
  • 1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries or goji berries
  • 1 tbsp flaky sea salt

How to Cook It:

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Break the chocolate into pieces and melt it using a double boiler (or in 30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring in between).
  3. Once the chocolate is smooth, pour it onto the parchment paper and spread it into a thin, even layer using a spatula.
  4. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the pumpkin seeds, berries, and flaky sea salt over the top.
  5. Place the sheet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour until the chocolate is completely firm.
  6. Break the bark into irregular pieces with your hands. Store in the fridge and enjoy one or two pieces when a craving strikes.
