This research looks at how to combine old and new wellness methods in physical education. This research focuses on utilizing hobbies, games, and technology to address issues related to students' lack of interest. We used a systematic review approach to analyze 12 qualitative research articles published between 2011 and 2024. We used standard databases like PubMed, Science Direct, Academic Search Complete, ERIC, Web of Science, CINAHL, SAGE, and SPORTDiscus to look for terms and synonyms that were related to old-fashioned physical games, new health programs, and technological advances in physical education. The searches took place from May 2024 to October 2024. Specifically, the inclusion criteria used were the presence of empirical research, methodological variety, and the study’s relevance to the research objectives. Twelve articles met the inclusion criteria for the review. We thematically analyzed the data to identify trends, issues, and opportunities in physical education.Researchers found that traditional games support cultural experiences and teamwork, while new-age strategies like mindfulness, exercise, and project-based learning relate to motivation and whole-person well-being. Researchers found that intelligent vision systems and serious games can help students learn. Technology can help make learning more fun and less difficult. When developing physical education programs, there is also a focus on revisiting the mental and emotional aspects of the learners, emphasizing the importance of mindfulness and flexible learning theories.So, mixing traditional ways of doing things with modern ideas about health and fitness makes activities more accessible to everyone and opens up new ways to teach about physical education.
