“When I finished Priscilla’s book, a smile washed
over my face and I let out a sigh. I promise you
will do the same.” - Meredith Vieira
Priscilla Warner should have been
content. A Penn graduate, an
accomplished art director, and
co-author of the New York Times
best seller, The Faith Club. She was
happily married and the mother of
two grown sons. But for forty years,
she’d suffered from debilitating anxiety
and panic attacks. When she read
about Tibetan monks
who had meditated so effectively that they were able to change their brains, Warner
wanted in! Written with lively wit and humor, Learning To Breathe chronicles
Warner’s mission to rewire her brain and her body in search of her own “inner monk.”
Priscilla Warner has appeared on the Today Show, CBS Sunday Morning,
CNN and NPR. She writes for More Magazine and The Huffington Post.
