Why exactly is stress so bad now? Didn’t our ancestors have to survive plagues, floods, famines and depressions? Fight world wars? Compared with our hardy forebears, we live in relative ease. How did we end up with this modern burden of living in one of the most trying times in the history of humankind? What changed? Amanda Enayati, CNN contributor and stress and technology correspondent for PBS MediaShift, was a former lawyer at a big firm. Feeling stressed all the time, Enayati was a witness to the 9/11 terrorist attacks in NYC and suffered a great depression afterward. Her new book, SEEKING SERENITY, offers a practical, life-changing plan which not only promises to manage stress, but calls for a paradigm shift in how we think about it in our daily lives in the modern world.
Amanda Enayati is a contributor to CNN, where she has examined the quest for well-being and life balance for the past five years. Her writing has appeared widely online, in print, and on the radio, including in the Washington Post, Time, Salon, Reader’s Digest, and public radio, among others. She is the stress and technology correspondent for PBS MediaShift and a frequent speaker at conferences on subjects including health, mindfulness, and the intersection of passion and purpose. Amanda lives in Los Angeles, CA.
