How to Calm Anxiety and Stress With Wellness Innovator Arianna Huffington

Here are three steps we can all take to find inner peace despite the current state of the universe.

“We are living in a metaphorical hurricane,” says Thrive Global and Huffington Post founder Arianna Huffington. “But even in the middle of the most ferocious hurricane, there is a place of calm.” In this video, the first in her weekly wellbeing-focused series for Salesforce, Huffington shares three “microsteps” we can all take to find a place of peace, wisdom, and strength within. Now Salesforce is making those videos available to a wider audience as part of our new Leading Through Change initiative, providing thought leadership, tips, and resources to help business leaders manage through crisis.

Huffington established Thrive Global in 2016 with a mission to change the way we work by ending “the collective delusion that we all have to be burnt out to be successful.” She’s now offering a free PDF download of her 2015 book, “Thrive: The Third Metric to Redefining Success and Creating A Life of Wellbeing, Wisdom, and Wonder.” “It only takes seven and a half minutes to read the intro and epilogue,” says Huffington. “I’m giving you the ‘CliffsNotes.’”

Watch the video to learn more about the three microsteps Huffington recommends right now, plus other game-changing, yet elementary steps to “move from struggle to grace” in your new working from home life. Hearing Huffington speak is, in itself, a meditation.

Our Leading Through Change series provides thought leadership, tips, and resources to help business leaders manage through crisis. Check out some of our most recent articles:
