494 Gwen Zywicke - When Your Adventures Produce Mystical States

  • Summary

  • I'm excited to introduce this week's guest, Gwendolyn Zywicke. I recently read her fantastic book, Ultrarunning Mysticism: Mind, Body, Spirit and the Sacredness of Overcoming Suffering. This book put words to an experience that I had had many times but couldn’t describe. It’s also not just for ultrarunning. If you do any type of endurance sport, such as cycling, walking, or hiking, you may have experienced this yourself.   About Gwen Zywicke Gwen is a senior instructor of communication studies at Louisiana State University, an ultrarunner, and a perpetual student of philosophy.   Guest's Links Facebook   Listen To This Episode        What You'll Learn What is ultrarunning mysticismWhat are the 9 characteristics of mystical experiencesHow people tap into mystical experiences during endurance sportsThe chemical ultrarunning induces that you don’t get in shorter distancesHow you can evoke these experiences or be more open to them   Things We Discussed Ultrarunning Mysticism: Mind, Body, Spirit and the Sacredness of Overcoming Suffering Walter StaceDr Joe Dispenza    Related Episodes 469 Holly Worton ~ How to Crew for an Ultramarathon (now with downloadable transcript!)468 Eric Deeter ~ Use the Ultramarathon Mindset to Get Your Epic Life450 Holly Worton ~ Adventures in Endurance416 Holly Worton ~ Lessons Learned From My First Ultra400 Holly Worton ~ Life is an Ultra (now with downloadable transcript!)   Connect With Holly WebsiteFacebookInstagramTwitterPinterestGoogle+LinkedIn   How to Subscribe Click here to subscribe via iTunesClick here to subscribe via RSSClick here to subscribe via Stitcher   Help Spread the Word If you enjoyed this episode, please head on over to iTunes and kindly leave us a rating and a review!
