Runner (part 1) with Sharon Starika

Have you ever wondered what would it be like to run like a pooch set free on the beach??? And, have you seen those video’s where they refuse to leave?

Today, Sharon ‘walks’ us through ways to run using the Feldenkrais Method… whether or not you’re keen to play, I thought you might find her approach interesting:

“Could running make you smarter? The answer may surprise you.

Most of us think of running as a physical activity. Certainly that appears to be the case. Running can make us leaner, trimmer and provides more oxygen to the muscles making them faster and stronger. Most of us know about the physical benefits of running and that is usually what motivates us to do it.

Running also has an emotional effect on us. Running for at least 20 minutes produces a natural chemical called Serotonin, which allows us to feel calm, centered, focused and happy. What a great natural drug we have built into our system to allow us to focus better, therefore being more productive with our time.”
