Are wellness trends hurting you? What wellness industry doesn’t want you to know (and what to do about it) / Ep 6

What do you think of when you hear the word “wellness”?   Do you immediately picture Instagram influencers, eliteness, or striving to be in PERFECT health using precise and regimented health plans?   There's this sort of underlying theme and obsession with pursuing health or having the “perfect” health everywhere you look these days.    As if it's within our control if we could just eat the top superfoods of the moment, stick to a popular calorie-counting diet plan, or exercise and meditate enough.   We have set out to change this narrative, and promote genuine health and self-care!   Welcome to episode 6 of the Wellness: Rebranded podcast! In this episode, we are discussing the impossible standards of the wellness industry, and the motivations behind their messaging.    Also, we chat about why we're all so passionate about presenting a different version of health and wellness that actually enhances your health.   We are encouraging you to drop the idea that there's this magic solution out there that's going to make your health better if you do everything “right”.   Remember it's more about the day-to-day, and we’re here to help guide you each step of the way!   Let’s rebrand wellness together!
