He is the author of The Head Trip: Adventures on the Wheel of Consciousness, which The Guardian named as one of the ten best books on consciousness,[1] and co-author of The New York Times bestseller Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics with Dan Harris and Caryle Adler.

Career

Warren is from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He studied literature at McGill University in Montreal, where he suffered a traumatic injury after falling 30 feet out of a tree, breaking his neck. He claimed that this event spurred his interest in consciousness as it changed his experience of the world and worsened his ADHD.[3][4]

He went on to work as a producer at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's (CBC Radio) current-affairs radio show, The Current,[3]

He wrote The Head Trip: Adventures on the Wheel of Consciousness[5] and co-authored Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics.

He collaborated with meditation app Calm to create a beginner-friendly meditation series (How to Meditate) and daily meditation sessions (The Daily Trip).[6][better source needed]

Personal life

Warren is married to Canadian journalist Sarah Barmak.[7]
