Hot take: the week my cousin got pulled into a 'wellness collective' in Sedona was the clearest cult playbook I've ever seen up close
She called me 4 months ago saying she'd joined a group of 12 people living on a compound outside Sedona, and by day 3 they had her Venmo-ing $2,400 for a 'breathwork intensive.' The leader told her to cut off her sister and me because we were 'low vibration,' and she actually blocked our numbers for 6 weeks. What got her out was boring stuff: her bank flagged the third transfer and a teller in Flagstaff asked her one simple question about who was getting the money. Now she won't talk about it at all, which honestly worries me more than the compound did. Anyone else seen a group use the wellness angle specifically to dodge the cult label?
