Podcast: Episode 92 – Your Body is Not Your Adversary

Zoey · December 20, 2018 · Leave a Comment

If I see one more post about how far you have to run to burn off Christmas lunch . . .

Or how I should eat BEFORE I go to parties so I don’t eat while I’m there or how maybe I should just eat less food the next day if I’m overindulged the night before, my head might explode. Running is not a punishment for the Christmas lunch you have, or for the date night you enjoyed or for the drinks you had out with your friends.

But this leads me to a bigger discussion about how easy it is to fall into the trap of seeing your body as an obstacle, as an entity you fight against or worse something that has betrayed you a million times and failed you more than you can count. That kind of thinking can get under your skin and sink into your bones if you let it. And eventually it will almost impersonate belonging there. But it does not.

Podcast: Episode 91 – The terrifying and liberating path of being a beginner

Zoey · December 13, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Beginnings have been popping up a lot this week. Maybe it’s the new Learn to Run starting on January 7th, or maybe it’s being so close to a new year, or have just started with a new coach and taking the next steps at rehab, but suddenly it seems like beginnings are everywhere.

This week on the podcast, I’m talking a bit about the hash and wonderful parts of beginning and persisting.

It seems like it should be easy to just start. But great things are rarely easy. And to want to change, you do not have to have a whole history that has led you to want to change, that has led you to the idea that staying the same is more painful than doing something really uncomfortable, but you have to restructure your life to make room for that change. And then you have to resist all of the internal forces in play that insist you stay the same.

Suddenly it’s not so easy.
