Trail Runner LIVE: Mindfulness, Meditation and Trail Running With Kriste Peoples

From understanding what mindfulness is to the benefits of applying it to your running practice, meditation teacher and runner Kriste Peoples will cover those points and more in a conversation with Trail Runner Editor-In-Chief Zoë Rom.

While the topic of mindfulness has become popular in lots of circles – especially meditation – we’ll take a look at how this practice comes alive by taking it off of the cushion and onto the trail. Trail running lends itself to a deeper exploration of being in the moment by becoming more aware of what’s going on around us and especially, within us.

We’ll cover:

• making your running into a practice
• running into your “why”
• learning to listen to your body and not your ego
• allowing the suck and why that’s different from embracing it
• why mindfulness matters
• the importance of psychological safety
