Episode Synopsis

The Wellness culture movement can have a dark side, as proponents often endorse the idea that certain health conditions are less than and in need of a cure in order to be accepted by society. We live in a society that is obsessed with the idea of wholeness, perfection and getting into a body that walks around “normal” and well, but what if this standard is actually unattainable and cultivating more harm than good? Today’s discussion is about the dangerous side of wellness culture, and how we can move toward a more inclusive and expansive version of wellness.
