Like all things with capital, it transforms what is beautiful and helpful into a thing to be exploited. As a therapist, it is a beautiful resource to be distributed to the people. However, it becomes commodified as a way to beat down on the middle and lower class. Lack of discovery is now why you’re unhappy at the job. You don’t do mindfulness enough. You are responsible for better work life balance. Things that are real and important become excuses for your job to treat you poorly.

Thank you for adding in this perspective. We have a system that beats people down and then shames them for it. It's insidious.
