THIS EVENT IS CANCELLED: Using principles and teachings from Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche's new book, Running with the Mind of Meditation, this workshop will provide participants with tools to develop a peaceful, yet strong mind through the practices of sitting and walking meditation.  Then we apply that mind to running, using mindfulness and awareness to come into the "now", where body and mind are synchronized.  The result is more relaxed and joyful running, with greater efficiency, ease and confidence.

The workshop will include instruction and practice in sitting meditation, walking meditation, and then running meditation. In addition to doing a meditative run, there will be time for questions and discussion.  Runners and walkers of all abilities are warmly invited to attend.

Teachers:

Jon Pratt ran his first marathon in 1980 and continues to run with his teacher Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. He has been practicing meditation since 1992 and has co-led the running program at Shambhala Mountain Center since 2006.

Bob Sutherland has been an avid runner for 29 years and a meditator for 18 years.  He has staffed 'Running and Meditation' programs at Shambhala Mountain Center.
