Unpopular Opinion:
Any health and wellness practice can be toxic.
These practices can be toxic in how they are portrayed or marketed. I see this most often in suggestions that these practices will cure, or are the only way to heal or get better.
These practices can also be toxic in how they are applied in our lives. The more rigid, perfectionistic or punishing we are in how we use these practices, the more toxic they are likely to be.
