Speaker Bio
Every once in a great while, perhaps in high school, more likely college, we encounter a teacher who inspires us, who gives us a new outlook on life, who in a short time, becomes our mentor, role model, and a friend. 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 is renowned nationally and internationally as an expert in the field of stress management, mind-body-spirit healing and health promotion. In the role of traveler, visionary, mystic, healer and mentor, Brian Luke Seaward has created a legacy in the field of wellness and health promotion for all to share.
His colleague and mentor Larry Dossey, M.D., says, "Dr. Seaward daringly goes beyond the usual approach to the subject (of stress) to speak of the soul and of human spirituality because he realizes that stress management and maximal health are impossible to attain unless the questions of life's meaning are addressed."
As one of the pioneers in the field of mind-body-spirit healing, Dr. Seaward has authored the popular best-sellers, Managing Stress, Stressed is Desserts Spelled Backward, and Quiet Mind, Fearless Heart.
The acclaimed book, Stand Like Mountain, Flow Like Water: Reflections on Stress and Human Spirituality (now released as a 10th anniversary edition), has been described as the sequel to M. Scott Peck's, The Road Less Traveled.
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. Through it all, he reminds us, stress knows no demographic boundaries.
