Not only is it difficult to communicate what we\u2019re feeling, but also, sometimes we actually don\u2019t even fully understand those feelings ourselves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/americandetox.co\">American Detox<\/a><\/em>, the newly-released book by activist, wellness disruptor and founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctznwell.org\">CTZNWELL<\/a>, Kerri Kelly, has aptly put into words my deep-seated, and quite frankly, tremendously disheartening feelings about the wellness industry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A thought-provoking and engaging mix of personal narrative, resource guide and self-inquiry manual, American Detox is built on several keenly intelligible premises.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-313380\" src=\"https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/kerri-Kelly-american-detox-book-cover.jpeg\" alt=\"kerri Kelly american detox book cover\" width=\"250\" height=\"254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/kerri-Kelly-american-detox-book-cover.jpeg 665w, https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/kerri-Kelly-american-detox-book-cover-295x300.jpeg 295w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/>The book explores wellness in America as highly commoditized. This, by nature, makes our appetite for wellness insatiable. Collectively, we are always striving to fix ourselves, only to come up short time and time again. \u201cWe can\u2019t buy our way to wellness,\u201d Kelly noted, in our Wanderlust interview. \u201cThe idea that wellness is outside of ourselves is a myth.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As suggested in the book, the global wellness economy, which brings in about $4.4 trillion annually, is only making us lonelier, more isolated, unhappier, and ultimately, even sicker. This, Kelly reasoned, is precipitated by an undercurrent of separatism and injustice that is the core of every aspect of society.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWellness is just one more system that has been colonized by ideologies of individualism, white supremacy, ableism, and capitalism,\u201d she writes in <em>American Detox<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The book\u2019s central thesis proposes that when we are preoccupied with our own pursuit of wellness, we fail to see and work towards a <a href=\"https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/journal\/redefining-wellness-nicole-cardoza-kerri-kelly-on-access-and-representation\/\">culture of collective care<\/a> and well-being that actually works for everyone. The irony is, however, as Kelly puts it, that none of us will be well unless all of us are well. True wellness manifests as acts of community-building, rather than a battle that&#8217;s fought as (or for) one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAnother myth is the idea that personal antidotes can solve systemic problems. Personal practices are helpful, but they are not going to address critical global issues,\u201d Kelly noted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-313371\" src=\"https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/MG_0045.jpg\" alt=\"kerri Kelly american detox\" width=\"256\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/MG_0045.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/MG_0045-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 256px) 100vw, 256px\" \/>With every fiber of my being, somehow, equal parts liberated and triggered by <em>American Detox<\/em>\u2019s assertions, I asked Kelly for a solution and if she\u2019s able to remain hopeful for the future, considering the level of toxicity permeating the world. She paused, long and hard. I could feel her emotions mirroring my desperation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She explained that as a white, able-bodied, cisgender woman, she embodies and lives the privilege she speaks about in <em>American Detox<\/em>. She\u2019s mindful of espousing white saviorism. For solutions, in the book she directs people to the community leaders and healers who have long been disrupting the narrative. \u201cWe haven\u2019t been listening to them, but they&#8217;ve always been there,\u201d she told me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She also offered a word of solace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI feel despair and discouraged often; I want to be honest about that. But, when you engage in the movement with the people who are organizing for our collective well-being, and connect to your right role in the movement, you will feel a great deal of abundance and positive energy. You will feel you&#8217;re part of that current of change.\u201d Things are changing, she assured me. And, whether or not it will happen in our lifetimes, one day things will be more equal, just and fair.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kelly began this journey on 9\/11, when she lost her stepdad, a firefighter. It was grief that brought her to yoga and wellness. But, she began to awaken to the privilege embedded in her lifestyle, and the world of inequity outside of that bubble. Her yoga practice soon merged into yoga activism, and eventually she spent seven years as executive director of the non-profit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.offthematintotheworld.org\">Off the Mat, Into the World<\/a>. Through her current project, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctznwell.org\">CTZNWELL<\/a>, Kelly works fervently to elevate community consciousness and engagement around a culture and politics that <a href=\"https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/journal\/the-politics-of-well-being-ctznwell-speakeasy\/\">democratizes well-being<\/a> for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">American Detox is Kelly\u2019s newest installation in her quest to add her voice to a more inclusive culture and economy of well-being. \u201cThis book is an invitation for people to ask themselves hard questions about what it means to be well, and to learn from those who have been leading this movement and those who have been marginalized,\u201d she emphasized.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kelly is a highly attuned changemaker who, in American Detox, gives us much to ponder, feel and act upon. For those who are ready for change, and to be that change, this book is highly recommended.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-22345 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Kinisha-Correia.jpg\" alt=\"Kinisha-Correia\" width=\"200\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Kinisha Correia is an award-winning journalist, content writer, editorial director and founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/aboutherculture.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/aboutherculture.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1653186998732000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0Lspmh18C_N2MimYYAMNgD\">About Her Culture<\/a>, who\u00a0has worked with a variety of publications throughout the US and the Caribbean.
