Deconstructing Wellness: The UN-Prescription for Your Health
Description:
Recently, we have seen an uptick in conversation around how the healthcare system is sick. Prescriptive wellness is failing our communities as we view wellness as something other than ourselves – a façade of social media serenity that doesn’t reflect the authenticity that true transformation requires. The mind, body and spirit are connected, in illness and in health.
By deconstructing the myths, misinformation, concepts, and common practices underpinning the term wellness, we can get real about the skills and tools that can help us live a life committed to the journey, not the destination.
