S2. E32. 8 wellness trends the Bible warns us about (feat. Geta Barbu)


Listen Later

Today, I’m joined by my dear friend and colleague Geta Barbu — gut health practitioner, nutritionist, and faith-filled truth-teller — for a raw, convicting conversation about what’s really going on in the wellness industry.

We’re unpacking 8 wellness trends that Scripture actually warns us about, including:

✨ Idolatry of the body
✨ False prophets + empty promises (hi, TikTok detox kits 👀)
✨ Pride + self-sufficiency in “healing yourself”
✨ Sorcery / Pharmakeia — and the modern misuse of supplements
✨ Anxiety about tomorrow (fertility fears + aging stress)
✨ Mysticism without truth (manifestation, energy cleansing, crystals)
✨ Gluttony of knowledge (binge learning, no application)
✨ Neglecting true rest (biohacking disguised as “self-optimization”)

Here's a link to the post mentioned in the episode: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DOGyjHkDUKJ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

This episode will help you renew your mind, discern truth from deception, and remember that our healing doesn’t come from powders, potions, or protocols — it comes from the Healer Himself, Jehovah Rapha. 🙌

📖 Scripture References: Galatians 5, Proverbs 16:18, Matthew 6:34, Colossians 2:8, Exodus 20:8–10, Romans 1:25

🎧 Listen if you’re ready to:

  • Detox your faith from worldly wellness culture

  • Learn to spot idolatry and deception in “health” advice

  • Anchor your healing journey in biblical truth

  • Be reminded that Jesus, not your supplement stack, is your source of wholeness
