Author Diane Young Uniman Shares “Blessings Without Stressing!” At East Brunswick Public Library

If you don’t know a kugel from a kangaroo, author Diane Young Uniman’s recently released Blessings Without Stressing!: Jewish Home Celebrations Made Easy for Interfaith and Jewish Families is for you.

The book is a warm, funny, and welcoming guide to Jewish home celebrations—created especially for interfaith families, multi-faith households, and anyone who’s ever felt like a (gefilte) fish out of water at a Jewish holiday table.

Uniman (aka Princess Diane von Brainisfried) discusses Blessings Without Stressing! plus the topic “Boosting Family Well-Being through Meaningful Rituals” during a special author chat at the East Brunswick Public Library (2 Jean Walling Civic Center) on Wednesday, June 24 at 7:00 pm.
She is also the author of Bonjour, Breast Cancer—I’m Still Smiling! Her work is featured in the Chicken Soup For The Soul series of books.

Uniman is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and Seton Hall University Law School. She spent years as a criminal justice appeals attorney, and she transitioned into writing and motivational speaking.

A breast cancer survivor, she wrote her first book Bonjour Breast Cancer, I’m Still Smiling! to encourage others facing breast cancer with humor and optimism. Under her alias nom de plume Princess Diane von Brainisfried, she writes a “tongue-in-chic” happiness lifestyle blog from a funny princess point of view.

Uniman has also written award-recognized winning screenplays and musicals performed at venues including Lincoln Center and Off-Broadway and accepted into FRINGE/NYC. She is also a Certified Positive Psychology Life Coach, a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader, and earned a certification from Yale in The Science of Well-Being.

She has presented wellbeing seminars for corporations, healthcare organizations, and community groups, including Robert Wood Johnson University Medical School and the American Cancer Society.

The first twenty lucky attendees will receive a free copy of Blessings Without Stressing! Jewish Home Celebrations Made Easy for Interfaith and Jewish Families.
