Aimed at people wanting to get fit, get healthy, runners, walkers, hikers, active people, ultrarunners – all of us really, the Cardiff Running Show sets out to build mindfulness into a programme of wellbeing in the context of running. The Cardiff Running Show is a grass roots gathering of local and regional resources to enable people to begin and develop their fitness journey.

The Running Show is an opportunity for people to experience mindfulness in a developmental situation that is practical and useful. This is realised through taster sessions that outline the significance and importance of expanding awareness. It’s about giving people the opportunity to understand and experience themselves from a different perspective which is key to recognising and embracing a more inclusive version of reality.
The nature of meditation and mindfulness is such that even coming into contact with the idea of meditation will bring some subtle changes to an individual. The Butterfly Effect. Introducing people to the nature of their own minds will have infinite repercussions as they begin to develop an understanding not only of their own minds and themselves but also how they interact with their environment. This is evolution not only of the individual but the collective as well.
We have enough science for us to clearly see what’s happening in the world. We need to apply that knowledge and accumulated wisdom for the benefit of everything.
The possibilities are endless if we consider becoming more aware of any value. Connecting with organisations that support an integrated view of the nature of being and life in this particular modality, the athletic/active world, would be of help in reaching those who are beginning their journey of self-discovery.
A quote from one of the helpers at the show who has a hip problem and took advantage of what was available:
“Meeting an array of professionals who I wouldn’t necessarily seek out in my daily schedule……..all together in one room helped me gain an understanding of my underlying injury and how a multidisciplinary approach could set me on the path to recovery”.
It is this integral understanding we hope will emerge from people attending mindfulness workshops at the show, adopting a more mindful approach to their experience.
