A faith-based multimedia initiative by Root Magazine, Rooted In Wellness tackles health disparities in Black communities, especially obesity and chronic illness, through the power of storytelling, spiritual support, and gospel culture.
We believe small changes, when rooted in faith and community, lead to big breakthroughs. Our goal is to build a safe, soulful space where health isn’t taboo, it’s celebrated.
● Nearly 1 in 2 Black adults face chronic illness or obesity
● 5–15% weight loss can significantly reduce health risks
● Progress, not perfection, is the mission
