Veselīga Latvija

https://veseligalatvija.lv/

Veseliga Latvija is a news initiative with a focus on wellbeing, spearheaded by the Healthy Latvia movement. It is the only wellbeing news resource in the Baltics, and its path is just beginning. The website was launched in 2021 by a group of healthy lifestyle activists who are still working on the outlet's business model.

The site publishes commentaries and live discussions produced by a vast network of wellbeing experts and health professionals. The underlying idea of Veseliga Latvia is balancing the mind and the body. The topics it covers include nutrition, physical health, mental health, happiness, and mindfulness.
