Who is behind EQness?
My name is Olga-Lucia Gamboa Arana, I am a neuroscientist with a PhD in Basic and Clinical Neurology.
I am passionate about human emotions and their consequences. That drove me to get a specialization in Emotional Education, get certified as a teacher of the mindfulness eating program MB_EAT and trained as a teacher of Mindfulness and Self Compassion and I am finalizing my studies in Psychology.
I am also a life coach, happy to share my knowledge with those seeking to modify painful behavioral patterns to achieve a healthier and happier life.
My suggestions to you
Be Committed
Improving our quality of life requires effort and therefore a strong will to make changes. It is not about being someone that we are not, but to become better versions of what we currently are. Of course mistakes will occur during this process, but it is important to learn from them and continue or start over again.
Be Dedicated
The path to develop an emotionally healthy and satisfying life is not covered in a week, nor in a year. Time is needed when we want to change our old unhealthy patterns for new ones, more appropriate to our values, needs and life goals . To achieve this, daily work is necessary. However, this dedication is so rewarding and it is the greatest gift we can ever give ourselves.
My philosophy
Sharing
I like sharing resources that I consider valuable and effective. As a scientist I question everything I hear and believe in techniques that I have tested myself. I invite you to do the same.
Avoid magic formulas
In the path to well-being, magic formulas or miraculous recipes that solve our lives do not exist. Every precious thing takes time in achieve its final form and of course this field is no exception. Perseverance, patience and daily action are important to make our life 7% happier.

What if I fall? by Erin Hanson
There is freedom waiting for you,
On the breezes of the sky,
And you ask “What if I fall?”
Oh but my darling,
What if you fly?”
Understanding and Acceptance
“The art of being yourself at your best is the art of unfolding your personality into the person you want to be. Be gentle with yourself, learn to love yourself, to forgive yourself, for only as we have the right attitude toward ourselves can we have the right attitude toward others”- Wilfred Peterson
