Does meditation help with running? Can meditation help you run faster? If you are a runner who laces up your shoes for the simple reason of getting in that mental clearing run to help you manage stress, improve mood, and stay healthy (or it could literally be the only time in your chaotic day that you have time to yourself) then you will want to listen to this experiential learning episode! Rebecca Doring who is a runner, Meditation Teacher, Yoga Instructor, & Personal-Transformation Coach, who helps people overcome daily stress and manage their inner critic so that they can get to know who they really are, and go after and achieve the goals they want.

Have you ever injured your knee before or had knee pain and you went to the doctor and they told you to stop running? Did you follow their recommendation, go to PT, go see a chiropractor, and then even after you took 4 weeks or even 8 weeks off from running the pain was still there? Have you been told that your only option at that point is a PRP injection? Today's interview with Kristi is going to be helpful for you if you ever struggled with knee pain before that limited you from running or getting in those lunges during your strength work or if you just feel to too slow to ever be able to run a marathon.
