Katherine Dreyer, co-founder of ChiLiving, joins us on the podcast today to explore how we can integrate the principles of ChiRunning into all aspects of our lives. While running (or walking) is our passion, let's face it for a big percentage of our life, we're doing something else. So since ChiRunning principles can significantly enhance our runs, how can they apply to the rest of our lives? Imagine applying the Chi principle of 'body-sensing' off the trail—how could it deepen our connection to ourselves? Tune in to our conversation as Katherine shares insights on how to apply these principles and reap their benefits.

How do you run without the toes on your one foot? In this episode, we dive into Catherine's remarkable journey of transformation through ChiRunning. Initially drawn to running as a personal challenge, Catherine found herself struggling with the training aspect and lacking enjoyment in her runs. However, everything changed when she discovered ChiRunning. This episode explores how ChiRunning not only transformed Catherine's running experience but also played a pivotal role in her life, helping her overcome challenges and rediscover joy in running: Catherine lost all the toes on her one foot due to surgical complication - but thanks to ChiRunning, she still runs.

Today's topic aligns perfectly with the season theme of 'Redefine' as we explore today how focus reshapes our running experience. Did you know our attention span averages 8 seconds? Yes, that's a second shorter than a goldfish! So much for Ted Lasso's 'be a goldfish, Sam' pep talk after a blunder, right? We're all in the same boat, pulled by the allure of 'pretty things.' Our focus is a precious commodity, and we hold the reins on where it goes. If, like me, you're eager to find a solution to that persistent craving for another dopamine hit, stick around. What we really want is a quiet brain. A calm brain. Maybe physical exhaustion after a hard or long run is currently your ticket to finally feeling the calm settle in. So often we run to feel better physically and mentally but more often than not we return feeling disillusioned when the results of what we typically track (such as pace and distance) seem ‘blah'. We then feel frustrated and to top it off the mind still feels wired from the 2-3,000 thoughts we experienced during the hour we were running. Retrospectively, we noticed we had a difficult time connecting with the run. We need a solution to our TikTok brains. Ready? Click play.

On the last episode, I talked about the transformative power of ChiRunning, exploring how it's not just about the miles but really the mindful connection between your body and mind. I called it a system upgrade. So I want you to imagine taking this 'system upgrade' this profound shift in your approach to running, and extending it into an immersive experience. That's exactly what the Run Aligned ChiRunning Retreats are all about. They were born out of the desire to provide a space for you to fully embrace this upgrade, both physically and mentally. As I tell you about the origin story of the retreats today, keep in mind that it's not just a narrative about events; it's a journey that mirrors the transformation you can experience. They can really be a catalyst for redefining not only your running but your entire approach to well-being. Ready? Click play.

Don't let negative thoughts prevent you from reaching your running goals Self Doubt is often founded in fear: fear of measuring up to others, other runners, what we see on social media.

Another episode for your runner's ‘tool belt' to help you reduce your risk of injury and increase your joy of running physically and mentally. Today is all about the core and why understanding proper core engagement is so important. Before learning this I used to have achy hips ( not while running necessarily) but throughout the day especially in the morning. As a matter of fact at 40 I thought I needed hip replacements and I hadn't even started running yet. My chiropractor and PT both said it was hip bursitis and we looked for stretches to help alleviate the pain but it never went away. That is until I learned how to level my pelvis and engage my core because it reduced the extraneous motion I was making when walking and running.

Welcome to episode 121 of MRM - the podcast that helps you run with more joy. In today's episode, I share a guest talk I did in a coaching colleague's running community. The theme was 'Making Friends With Running,' a topic close to my heart. I discuss my intentional approach to running, treating it as an experiment, and the concept of 'giving more than you take from running.' Shifting your mindset from 'getting something' from running to 'giving to it' can lead to a more fulfilling running experience.

In this episode, we're diving deep into the fusion of running and mental health therapy with a special guest, Sarah Strong. A mental health therapist and accomplished ultra runner, Sarah brings a unique perspective to the conversation. She aligns closely with my belief in self-compassion and embracing the joy of running. Sarah underscores the potent role running plays in bolstering mental wellness. The act of running triggers the release of endorphins, amplifies serotonin and dopamine levels, and even contributes to our physical health. Moreover, running serves as a canvas for processing complex emotions, aligning our mind and body, cultivating self-awareness, and honing stress management skills. Just as therapy challenges us to overcome mental barriers, running empowers us to believe in ourselves and realize our potential. However, it's crucial to discern that while running offers immense benefits for mental well-being, it's not a substitute for therapy. Sarah emphasizes this point, highlighting that therapy equips us with invaluable tools and guides us in reshaping our thought patterns. While running has numerous advantages, it can also amplify mental health challenges if approached inattentively. The release of stress hormones during running can be beneficial with proper rest, but adding stress to an already demanding situation can have counterproductive effects on mental health. Recognizing signs of burnout, stress, or emotional distress is pivotal. If you find yourself associating relaxation solely with exercise or experiencing negative emotions when skipping a workout, these signals might suggest the need for guidance from a mental health therapist. During our conversation, Sarah unveils the micro tools she shares with her clients to empower them to excel in races. Tune in to uncover these strategies that blend mental and physical wellness, setting the stage for success on your running journey.

Today, in our fourth Mindful Running episode, we explore the joy of setting meaningful running goals and the impact it can have on our journey.

Taming the Inner Critic: Empowering Your Mindset for Positive Running On the days you're tempted to skip a workout, what motivates you to run anyway? Are you thinking, “A missed run equals weight gain!” or, “I'm not going to be a real runner if I don't follow through on my training.” or “I'll only improve if I run every day, so I have to run today, no matter what.” Chasing external outcomes isn't going to make you a better and more committed runner. In fact, it'll only perpetuate the negative feelings you already have, and even block you from appreciating your accomplishments when you do achieve them! This is episode 3 in Stine's new series, Mindful Running and How to Cultivate Presence and Joy in Every Step. Today, she addresses how your mindset shapes your running journey and peels back the layers of motivation, self-talk and intention that influence your steps, so you can make positive change. Top Takeaways: How mindset shapes your running experience Why you aren't satisfied, even when you do reach your goals The #1 reason you get stuck in negative thought loops The 3 step process to transforming your negative thoughts Now, when your negative thought habits threaten to take over, you'll have the tools you need to shift your thinking into joyful motivation.

Danny has been a guiding light for the last 20 years by educating runners worldwide on the art of good running, and his message focuses primarily on the benefits of mindful movement. His motto is, “Don't try to build big muscles to go faster, get rid of what's slowing you down.” You'll learn: How Chi Running can improve your form Why good form helps you run faster and more safely The 3 levels of the training pyramid Tips for testing your form What's really slowing down your running time When you run mindfully and in alignment, running with joy becomes your new reality.

In this episode, we welcome back Melody Bateman, a runner, ultra runner, and run coach, who shares insights on zone 2 training and 80/20 running. Melody debunks the misconception that "harder is better" and highlights the benefits of zone 2 training for overall health and fitness.

Melody Bateman is a runner, an ultra runner and a run coach. A couple of years ago, I interviewed her for her ultra running story (episode 9) but today, I'm talking with her to learn more and to share with you listeners all about building a solid foundation for your running. Listen in as Melody and I discuss heart rate running/ zone 2 running.  I bring up all my own ‘fears/ worries' as I transition to zone 2 running myself and chances are you're feeling what I'm going through too - so tune in! We talk about the importance of easy running w/ hard efforts sprinkled in versus  zone 3 running - AKA the ‘black hole' of many runners. If you're not already convinced of the importance of zone 2 running, if you're new to zone 2 running you're going to want to listen to this episode (I bet even if you've been at 80/20 running for a while, you'll still enjoy this episode).  FEATURED ON THIS EPISODE: Follow Melody on Instagram How to connect with Stine:” Connect inside Running Aligned Body and Mind on Facebook.  Email Stine Running Aligned Body and Mind women retreat 2023.
