A growing number of expats and social media users are documenting their adoption of Chinese health habits under the hashtag #BecomingChinese, by integrating herbal teas, specialized diets, and physical arts like Tai Chi into their daily routines.
"Tomorrow, you are turning Chinese," a creator says in a viral TikTok video, listing a series of distinct Chinese lifestyle habits. The playful "prophecy" by @sherryxiiruii has sparked a global fever, gaining nearly 750,000 likes and sparking a top-trending hashtag #BecomingChinese.
Building on the initial post, international TikTok users have increasingly posted their own videos under the same theme, showcasing their "Chinese-style" lives. These videos often highlight subtle but significant lifestyle changes, such as drinking warm water instead of iced beverages, practicing Baduanjin (an ancient Chinese wellness exercise), exploring traditional Chinese medicine, preparing basic Chinese dishes, as well as reshaping diet, sleep, and work routines to achieve a more balanced daily rhythm.
