SHOW INTRODUCTION:
Today I’ll be talking with Brian Luke Seaward, stress-management expert, the producer of a stunningly beautiful documentary Earth Songs, and the author of at least 16 or more books including a life-transforming stress-reducing book, “Stand Like Mountain, Flow Like Water” and a beautiful book on sleep, “A Good Night’s Sleep”.
And that’s just what I want to talk with him about today, about getting our stress way down, to get our sleep way up.

Teachers like these “who touch our hearts and change so many lives,” are the unsung heroes of humanity. By all accounts, Brian Luke Seaward is one such teacher. He’s passionate, witty, humorous, and perhaps most of all, inspiring. He truly touches hearts, and most anyone will tell you, this is how he heals. Teaching is healing, and through his teachings, he offers a unique synthesis of insights blending the “ageless wisdom” of human spirituality with the topic of stress to reveal the unique alchemy of humanity and divinity, what we call the “human journey.”
