It has long been known that physical activity is good for health. Many, however, do not realize how much these benefits affect not only our body, but also our mind. To take care of the latter, in recent years the practice of Mindfulness, which we have talked about, has taken hold who. Now the Brooks company, in collaboration with neuroscience professor Olivier Oullier, has coined a term that indicates a new practice. Very few people know it but this practice is the way to balance body and mind, and everyone should put it into practice right away.

Let’s talk about Runfulness, or Mindfulness applied to running. The scholars observed activity in the cerebral cortex of some runners, and the results are very interesting. In fact, 80% of them showed that, after the race, the stress level it had dropped significantly compared to before starting the business. In addition, 9 out of 10 runners said they have life-long insights while running. Most of them said they were able to reach, by running, a peace that they do not normally feel. This can happen for a few seconds or a few minutes, or at least until a distraction comes along and breaks the harmony.
Tips for practicing Runfulness
To best practice this form of meditation in motion, before starting you need to do some simple exercises. For example, you have to stand up, put your thumb in your navel and place the other four fingers on your belly. For ten minutes you have to think that air and breath pass through this center. This is a first form of relaxation. In the meantime, you have to listen to your breath, and bring your mind back to it every time it moves away from it. Only at this point can you start running, starting slowly and gradually increasing the pace.
