What's up TEAmigo?!? Welcome to OpTEAmized, the show helping you opTEAmize your mind, body, and spirit through tea.
My name is Vince LaPelusa and I am your host on this tea journey. I am a tea lover, chemical engineer, Brazilian jiu jitsu purple belt, and I am thrilled to be here with you!
This show is on a mission of helping 1 million people opteamize their minds, bodies, and spirits through tea...how? Through Mindfulness Practices, Education, Movement, and CommuniTEA!
Mindfulness Practices are an integral part of understanding yourself and therefore helping you understand life. Tea can be a powerful tool to help guide these practices! Let's dive into how...
Education is invaluable. By elevating our knowledge of the world we are able to elevate our collective consciousness. Let's learn about how tea and tisanes have influenced cultures and history, the unique health benefits of these teas, and so much more.
Movement, without a daily practice our minds, bodies, and spirits will degrade. Tea can compliment our movement practices and even enhance them! So let's learn how here.
CommuniTEA, because life is more fun with others! Lets grow and do life together. Join the communiTEA on Facebook using this link: Optimize Your Mind, Body, & Spirit Through Tea
Sound valuable? Tune in to find out!
