Toxic Wellness Culture and the Cycle of Illness

You've tried numerous dietary restrictions, have spent thousands on supplements, and have hopped from one natural practitioner to the next... and you're still chronically ill. Sound familiar? Did you know it never actually ends? The health and wellness industry has convinced us that we're sick and in need of special diets, numerous natural practitioners, supplement protocols, and cleanses to "fix" ourselves. This is a wolf in sheep's clothing that I refer to as "toxic wellness culture". Not only does it keep us over-focused on physical health, it also keeps those of us with trauma stuck in trauma loops -- trying to heal the manifestations of emotional, mental, ancestral, and mental trauma solely with physical means. Toxic wellness culture also invalidates trauma and keeps trauma survivors on a constant carousel, going around and around, trying supplements and restrictive diets, seeing little, if any, improvements. Are you ready to get off the carousel?
