The Best Wellness Instagram Accounts To Inspire You

Sometimes we need a little inspiration to get off the couch and live our best life, and Instagram can be a great place to find it. There are plenty of health gurus on the platform with beautiful photos and videos, but occasionally, it takes some time to find the best ones. That's why we've put together a list of our favorite wellness accounts on Instagram to inspire you.

And while there's nothing wrong with scrolling through posts of kittens, deconstructed desserts and sunsets, we started thinking: Shouldn’t we be searching for something a tad more useful? Thanks to the thousands of personal trainers, nutritionists, yogis, and athletes who post daily, we've discovered that a simple swipe of a finger can give us all the fitness motivation we need to stay on track. Whether it’s exercises we can do at home, nutrition advice, success stories or the motivation to put down the Cheetos and turn off the 5th episode of Stranger Things, we have the accounts you need to get following and fast.

Instagram is full of inspiring wellness accounts. Don't be afraid to explore until you find a person that you connect with most. However, remember that every person that posts on Instagram is only uploading the best parts of their life. Don't compare yourself, or allow the perfect images to discourage you. We all struggle in different ways, but with a healthy attitude, you can use these accounts to encourage positive changes in your life. Don't hesitate to reach out to health and wellness consultants to get some extra help if needed. Happy Instagram surfing!
