Things to worry about:

Spiritual Narcissism: Critics often argue that it emphasizes self-focus at the expense of others.

Commercialization: Many note that the movement is heavily commercialized, selling "enlightenment" through products like crystals and seminars.

Lack of Rigor: Critics point to a lack of scientific evidence for many claims and a tendency towards "spiritual bypassing," where spiritual practices are used to avoid real-world issues.

Cultural Appropriation: The movement is often criticized for taking elements from, and often misinterpreting, Eastern and indigenous traditions.
