Synopsis:
As a Tibetan lama based in the West and leader of the Shambhala organization (an international community with 165 meditation centres), Sakyong Mipham has found physical activity to be essential for spiritual well being. He's been trained in martial arts and horsemanship but has a special love for running and has completed nine marathons. 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. The result is a practical, powerful, and inspirational book that will undoubtedly appeal to runners, spiritual seekers, and anyone mindful of general health and wellbeing.

"Movement is good for the body; stillness is good for the mind." Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche.

"A profound guide to the integration of mind and body." Dr Larry Dossey.

"You are guaranteed to take away pearls of wisdom to help guide you on your runs through the trails and through life." Michael Sander, author of Barefoot Running.

"I very much enjoyed Sakyong's straightforward, honest style and truly appreciate his view of running as it relates to meditation. Both activities are part of the human experience that transcends stress release: easy to describe but forever evolving." Frank Shorter, Olympic Gold Medal Marathon Winner.
