The Wellness Syndrome by Carl Cederström, Andre Spicer

4.0

This books explains why the self-help, fit, happiness craze is a problem. We are creating a narcissistic autistic hedonistic society. We've made fitness, happiness, and success an ideology. Those who are not are flawed. That's exemplified first with smoking - its not that smoking is bad but smokers are bad. So are fat people, unemployed people and poor people - that is a major problem with the biomorality of the self help craze.
Self help craze started in the 20s and 30s with Norman Vincent Peal, Dale Carnegie, and Napoleon Hill. it continues on with wellness, mindfulness, and the Secret.
The books debunks the fake science behind all these gurus.
I read alot of these books.
They are empty and fake.
No I know that it wasn't me, it was them.
I feel happy or I should say content.
