'Holistic': The Most Bastardized Word in the Health Space?

A necessary discussion

I despise how charlatans within the health space have destroyed the public perception of ‘holistic.’ It’s a beautiful words with incredible meaning and application.

Individuals with no moral backbone and a predatory business practice use this word to lure people into their grip.

We must move away from this shitty assumption.

Yes, there are many people like that out there.

But there are also just as many people teaching the art of health and wellness in a way which respects the holistic approach. They take systems thinking seriously and take great care of their clients.

I aim for this within my own work.
