We’re all just one kale smoothie away from a full-blown meltdown.
From ancient remedies to high-tech gadgets, modern wellness has turned into a chaotic scavenger hunt. The goal? Feel better. The result? Constant confusion, half-used supplements, and a bank account in shambles.
Let’s break it down (and maybe breathe a little easier).
This article is part of a four-part sponsored series written by our partner Squint. We’re excited to share their perspective on simplifying wellness, because let’s be honest—most of us are drowning in “solutions” already. Stay tuned as we roll out the full series over the coming weeks, and follow @squint.essentials on Instagram for more.
🤯 The Advice Avalanche Is Real

We’re sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. So we do what any overwhelmed human would: chase every piece of wellness advice we hear from a podcast, a TikTok, or someone whispering “ashwagandha” in line at Trader Joe’s.
And yes, we’ve checked if that game-changing adaptogen is available on Amazon. (It always is.)
The problem? We’re left with a supplement graveyard of half-used bottles and zero answers.
📱 There’s An App For That…Too Many, Actually
Thanks to wearables and apps, we now track everything:
– Steps
– Calories
– Heart rate variability
– Sleep cycles
– Vibes? Maybe.
But by the time you’ve synced your data, you’ve forgotten what you were even trying to fix—probably lost in a sea of brain fog.
🌀 Buried In “Solutions” That Aren’t Solving Anything
The firehose of health advice never lets up. One day carbs are evil. The next, your brain can’t function without them. So we keep digging, hoping the next trend will be the one to finally fix it all.
Spoiler: it usually isn’t.
Health roulette is real. And we’re all betting big.
🧓 Remember When Health Was…Simple?
Back when “wellness” meant getting fresh air and eating something green that wasn’t blended into a $14 smoothie, we seemed to be doing okay.
Now? We’re juggling green juice add-ons, decoding superfoods, and wondering if lunch just triggered a metabolic event.
Sometimes it feels like we need a PhD just to plan a snack.
💸 So Many People Trying To Help. So Much Chaos.
We appreciate the effort—really. The sheer number of wellness tools out there proves we’re all trying. Hard.
But it’s getting way too complicated. And expensive.
So what if the real answer is… embarrassingly simple?
☀️ The Wellness Reset You Can’t Buy On Amazon
What if your body already knows what to do—but it just needs some actual sunlight?
Yep. The solution might not be in a pill or app, but in your circadian rhythm.
When we reset our light exposure, we support metabolism, sleep, hormones—all the stuff we’re trying to fix in the first place.
We just need to get our light right.
