Find meaning, purpose and soul through running then lets talk about mindful running and let your Mind Run Free!
Of course i love to race and compete and experience the ways i can push myself to the limits in training but sometimes i don’t just run for that. I run to be mindful, to go with the flow and shut off the constant chatter in my mind! To run in the forests connecting with nature or to feel the sea breeze and mist along the coastal path and that is what i love about trail running and being mindful. So what is mindful running exactly? because well i offer both types of running and services. I run to race, i run to heal, i run to find answers and to tap into the sub-conscious and find the answers to everything and find creative ideas.
Part of the appeal of running is how mindless it is—just one foot in front of the other. But what if you could make it more mindful? It’s easy to talk about that in theory but it’s more difficult to do it in practice. Mindful running at its core, is attention training. Its all about learning to be more present-focused. Every time you notice your mind has wandered, you guide it back to the present moment.
Over time and training the neural networks that support a present operandi become more robust.
Science is catching up with theory, though, proving that mindful running is not only legit, but also something that any runner can benefit from. combining directed meditation with running or walking reduced symptoms of depression.
Which is partly why i’m getting are getting on board with this in my company. I used to suffer from anxiety and this has helped me greatly so.it trains your mind and we help you train the mind; we find that psychological factors (such as sight and sound) have a significant effect on endurance performance.
Plus also other big brands like, Nike recently partnered with Headspace on a series of audio-guided mindful runs via the Nike+ Run Club app;
We want to make mindful running more available with helping athletes gain an extra edge as well as women letting their mind RUN free and tap into meditative running for wellness happiness and living with purpose and intention.
Bringing mindful awareness to our experience can help us move beyond engaging with the world on autopilot as we learn to meet the present moment with openness, joy and curiosity.
