February 20, 2023 47: Is the Holistic Wellness Space Getting too Hard to Hang With?
The holistic wellness space is definitely getting to be a bit much for people. The obsession with finding things that are "unhealthy" and "toxic" is becoming toxic in and of itself. We can't deny that there are certain practices, items, products, etc that can better support one's health than say, another product, but we also can't ignore the fact that this is (1) scaring people, (2) holding them back from living their life, and (3) not supporting happiness and true health.
True health involves your WHOLE LIFE and in this episode Estelle is sharing how you can develop your own "balance" of what things to use in the holistic wellness space, and what isn't serving you at this point in time.
