Nita Sweeney attended the MFAW program in Port Townsend from 2006 to 2008. She is the award-winning wellness author of the running and mental health memoir, Depression Hates a Moving Target: How Running with My Dog Brought Me Back from the Brink and co-creator of the writing journal, You Should Be Writing: A Journal of Inspiration & Instruction to Keep Your Pen Moving.   While Nita always dreamed of being a writer, she didn't know her own stories had merit. Nita took a path to writing that had stopovers in training dogs, playing the flute, and becoming a partner at a law firm. She was a follower and student of Natalie Goldberg's, author of Writing Down the Bones, before she became Natalie's assistant in Taos, New Mexico. At 49 years old, Nita took steps to becoming a marathon runner, chronicled in her memoir Depression Hates a Moving Target. “I thought the story was ‘middle-age woman takes up running,'' Nita says, “but it was about ‘middle-age woman tries to save her life.'” Nita's new book, Make Every Move a Meditation is available for pre-order now. In it, she will explore how movement and exercise can be a meditation, “Why not make walking your dog a meditation?”   To learn more about Nita visit: https://nitasweeney.com/ Buy the books: https://nitasweeney.com/the-books/ Join her communities: https://facebook.com/groups/mindmoodandmovement/ https://facebook.com/groups/thewritersmind/ Recommendations Natalie Goldberg, Writing Down the Bones: https://nataliegoldberg.com/books/writing-down-the-bones/ Shinzen Young: https://www.shinzen.org/ NaNoWriMo: https://nanowrimo.org/ Couch to 5K: http://www.c25k.com/ Writers League of Texas: https://writersleague.org/

We talk about: why you might want to incorporate meditation into your running what the benefits are, and exactly how to start doing it on your run right now.

That's what mindfulness practice has allowed me to do. I don't have to push and pull on either one. I can be with what arises, no matter what it is. Mindfulness in Motion Therefore   Thoughts on Breathing Notice how much you hold your breath. During the day, just notice. When I'm running, often, I'm not forcing my breath instead, I will try to let my body react, relax, and let it take a natural breath.  Mindfulness in Motion Suggested Resources Book: Make Every Move a Meditation: Mindful Movement for Mental Health, Well-Being, and Insight By Nita Sweeney Book: You Should Be Writing: A Journal of Inspiration & Instruction to Keep Your Pen Moving (Gift for writers) By Nita Sweeney Book: Depression Hates a Moving Target: How Running With My Dog Brought Me Back From the Brink By Nita Sweeney Book: Mindfulness in Plain English by Bhante Henepola Gunaratana App: Waking Up Bullying Story I came from an alcoholic family, I was in and out of my own drinking and addiction, many very addictive behaviors with substances. Therefore And I think that this mindful awareness of my own behavior, and realizing that there was something driving me that I was unaware of. As a result of my actions, I would get bullied because other people didn't like what I was doing. Therefore So that awareness that there was something else going on, so much deeper, than I could have possibly worked with, to maybe modify my own behavior, or at least, be able to be with it without all the shame and guilt and things. Therefore And then when the bullying did happen, having the compassion because that's one of the things in meditation is we develop mind states, one of which is loving kindness and so having the compassion for the person, another person to realize that they too, were coming from some kind of place of often fear, that's what usually it is, we're coming out of fear. Therefore It's taken years of therapy, to help me understand that. But in the meditation practice, sitting with memories of that, the thoughts that come up now, the body sensations, especially being able to be with the discomfort, and then also having fond memories that I didn't really remember because there was so much of the kind of bad things that I didn't let them happen. So So when you're still or when you do meditation, even mindfulness in motion, when you let the rest of the world drop away, whether it's through in the writing practice the sitting in moving meditation, the rest of the world rep drops away, and joyous memories can come up.

Ep#104 All too often in the wellness world, especially in the diet and fitness circles, our mental and emotional well being doesn't get the attention it  deserves.  It's a huge blindspot because how we feel and what we think is so fundamental.  Mental health disorders are linked to the prevalence, progression, and outcome of some of today's most pressing chronic diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.  They increase the risk for substance abuse and addiction.  Our mental health affects how we handle and respond to stress, make choices, relate to ourselves and others.  Bottomline, mental health IS health.  When our mind is suffering, our whole being suffers. Today's episode is a poignant example of how our bodies have the power to heal our minds and how our minds have the power to  heal our bodies.  I talk with Nita Sweeney,  an award-winning wellness author of the running and mental health memoir, Depression Hates a Moving Target: How Running with My Dog Brought Me Back from the Brink , and her upcoming book, Make Every Move a Meditation,  which was recently featured in the Wall Street Journal.  Nita's personal journey of overcoming a lifetime of chronic depression and anxiety through a unique combination of running, writing and meditation is a powerful example of how it really is never too late to reclaim our health and happiness.   Her story, a brave and honest account of beating the odds and cultivating inner resilience is incredible inspiration for anyone struggling with mental health or even just stuck in a rut and needing to make some healthy lifestyle changes.  Three Ways to Heal Your Mind (free ebook)https://nitasweeney.com/ebooks-2/Depression Hates a Moving Targethttps://nitasweeney.com/about-the-book/Make Every Move a Meditation (preorder)https://www.amazon.com/How-Make-Every-More-Meditation/dp/1642509892/Couch to 5K Running Program http://www.c25k.comMorning Pages Practice (Julie Cameron)https://juliacameronlive.com/basic-tools/morning-pages/

"I realized I thought I was writing a book about a middle-aged woman who ran a marathon, and what I was actually writing about was a woman trying to save her life." Nita Sweeney, the award-winning wellness author of the running and mental health memoir, Depression Hates a Moving Target: How Running with My Dog Brought Me Back from the Brink, joins Heather to talk about her journey of becoming a runner — and her journey of finding herself. Before she discovered running, Nita was a 49-year-old chronically depressed, occasionally manic, and unable to run for more than 60 seconds at a time. Using exercise, she unearthed an inner strength she didn't know she possessed, and with the help of her canine companion, she found herself on the way to completing her first marathon. A former lawyer-turned-author, Nita has a new book — Make Every Move a Meditation — that comes out this summer and has been featured in the Wall Street Journal. A certified meditation leader, mental health advocate, ultramarathoner, and former assistant to writing practice originator Natalie Goldberg, Nita founded the groups Mind, Mood, and Movement to support well-being through meditation, exercise, and writing practice, and The Writer's Mind, to share using writing practice to produce publishable work.

Her stories from the ongoing journey will make you laugh, cry, and go out for a run, of course. Nita's new book, "How to Make Every Move a Meditation", comes out this summer.
