About this listen

 Conspirituality takes a deep dive into the troubling phenomenon of influencers who have curdled New Age spirituality and wellness with the politics of paranoia—peddling vaccine misinformation, tales of child trafficking, and wild conspiracy theories.

In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, a disturbing social media trend emerged: a large number of yoga instructors and alt-health influencers were posting stories about a secretive global cabal bent on controlling the world’s population with a genocidal vaccine. Instagram feeds that had been serving up green smoothie recipes and Mary Oliver poems became firehoses of Fox News links, memes from 4chan, and prophecies of global transformation.

Since May 2020, Derek Beres, Matthew Remski and Julian Walker have used their Conspirituality podcast to expose countless facets of the intersection of alt-health practitioners with far-right conspiracy trolls. Now this expansive and revelatory book unpacks the follies, frauds, cons and cults that dominate the New Age and wellness spheres and betray the trust of people who seek genuine relief in this uncertain age.

With analytical rigor and irreverent humor, Conspirituality offers an antidote to our times, helping readers recognize wellness grifts, engage with loved ones who've fallen under the influence, and counter lies and distortions with insight and empathy.

Covering the dark side of the New Age movement and associated ideologies, which became particularly influential in the Trump and Covid era, this book is a must for any fans of the Conspirituality podcast. The eloquence of the authors and the breadth of their research make this a really enjoyable, compelling listen. I finished it in record time because it was so engaging and neatly tied together all the themes touched upon in the podcast, with additional insights that were new to me. Only minor criticism is that I cringed when Matthew Remski tried to imitate the voices of the gurus he was quoting - a misguided decision? Otherwise it's an unequivocal 5 stars from me.

An amazingly thorough and timely piece of work

This book is superbly written and a more succinct version of the themes and stories from the Conspirituality podcast. Matthew, Derek and Julian have such a fantastic way of expressing these concepts in a poetic, direct and yet easily understandable way. Must read … a balm in these crazy times. Going to be recommending this to everyone I know.

An important book for troubled times. Mainly focused on america and its love of woo woo health fads, cults, bad science and far right politics
