Rethinking Wellness Beyond Trends: Intention Over Method with Sam Brooks
What if wellness isn't something you buy or achieve, but whatever truly helps you feel well? This episode of Wellness Reimagined questions the "shoulds" that turn self-care into another performance. Rally News founder Sam Brooks shares why a practice that works for one person may drain another, how intentional media habits lower everyday anxiety, and why the goal matters more than the routine. About the Guest: Sam Brooks is the founder of Rally News, a positive news aggregator built as an alternative to social media algorithms. He is passionate about helping people be more intentional about the media they consume. Key Takeaways: Wellness is anything that helps you feel at peace, not a checklist of trends. If you keep asking whether a practice serves you, it may not. Be intentional about media, especially in the first minutes of your day. Give a new routine a few weeks. If it feels like a chore, replace it with another. Hold on to the intention. The routine is only the path to it.
