About this audiobook
As a Tibetan lama and leader of Shambhala (an international community of 165 meditation centers), Sakyong Mipham has found physical activity to be essential for spiritual well-being. He's been trained in horsemanship and martial arts but has a special love for running. Here he incorporates his spiritual practice with running, presenting basic meditation instruction and fundamental principles he has developed. Even though both activities can be complicated, the lessons here are simple and designed to show how the melding of internal practice with physical movement can be used by anyone-regardless of age, spiritual background, or ability-to benefit body and mind.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Sadly, the author of this book has been found to have done terrible things to women. I’d think twice before listening or supporting anything he publishes.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5An amazing book. I am proficient neither in running or meditation. But I am inspired for both. What a great book to listen to.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Terrific. Just a great examination of the relationship between the mind and body, the training of both, from the vantage point of a meditation master and accomplished runner. The Sakyong's teachings are a joy and very accessible.
