A Quest for Well-Being

Valeria Teles

This is a podcast inspired by love in the quest for Well-Being. The episodes feature informative, inspirational, healing, and insightful conversations focused on mental and spiritual health. This is a platform of collaboration created for exploration of fundamental truths, enlightening ideas, and insights about holistic health. The aspiration is to awaken new ways of thinking toward a new way of living and new ways of being. Through the lens of awareness and healing, we explore such topics as trauma, addiction, co-dependency, fear, depression, anxiety, learning, and self-love, among others. The intention is to inspire healthy changes and promote awareness. I am grateful for having the opportunity to collaborate with many thoughtful and insightful people. Much appreciation for the guests and supporters of this podcast! Podcast Song “Almost August” by Dan Lebowitz http://www.lebomusic.com/

“Dear reader, your body is a part of you. Your body has nothing to do with the essence of who you are. To be whole is to embody everything that is authentically you in the body you have right now. The way your body moves, looks, folds, creases, or fits is the least interesting thing about you. Don't let your dissatisfaction with your body rule your life.”
