This notion spreads far beyond the wellness industry - it goes back to America's puritan roots, to the plague that is Prosperity Gospel.
It's enmeshed with the thinking that the well off & successful are morally and spiritually superior to the impoverished & suffering; the fascist gospel of wealth.

The idea that health equals virtue is extremely dangerous.
Who doesn’t like natural foods and clean water? But the idea that if you’re fat or sick or disabled, it’s your fault is dehumanizing and wrong.
We’re all only ever one serious illness or accident away from disability. And life is random.

A protester is currently lying in a hospital bed with a piece of shrapnel in his neck 7mm from his carotid artery.
While he lay bleeding on the pavement, blinded in his left eye, gasping for air, agents did not call a medic. They dragged him and sneered: "You're going to lose your eye."

Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.
