Supporting and buying products from black-owned brands is a way to keep diversity in a space that should be opened and accessible to everyone.

Like many industries in the mainstream, wellness is predominately run by white people. Historically speaking, black communities are the ones who need healing the most. But still, they represent a small portion of this space.

“I don’t think marginalized communities are given the appropriate and intentional space to fully heal often enough.”

Naj Austin, the founder of Ethel’s Club, a social and wellness club for people of color, tells SELF

Here, we want to support diversity in every single way. That said, here are six black-owned wellness brands for you to follow.
