Description
"The wellness industry has grown from modest roots into a $4.4 trillion entity and a full-blown movement promising health and vitality. While wellness may have sprung from good intentions, we are now relentlessly flooded with exploitative offerings, questionable ideas, and a mounting pressure to stay devoted to the divine doctrine of wellness. What happens when the cure becomes as bad as the disease? Balancing the good with the bad, The Gospel of Wellness is a clear-eyed exploration of what wellness can actually offer us, knocking down false idols and commandments that have taken hold and ultimately showing how we might shape a better future for the movement--and for our well-being"--,Adapted from dust jacket flap.
