<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Imagine achieving physical fitness and spiritual growth simultaneously. Roger Joslin's step-by-step program is an engaging exploration of the truth that spiritual well-being is as likely to happen while running, as it is within the more traditional settings of neighborhood churches, synagogues, or mosques. Through awareness, chants, and visualization, and through attention to the present moment--the weather, pain, or breathing---a simple run can become the basis for a profound spiritual practice, and <i>Running the Spiritual Path </i>is here to guide you.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>If you're great at lacing up your running shoes, but you can't fold yourself into lotus position, here's the guide to finding a spiritual connection to your favorite physical activity.<br>- <i>Times-Picayune, </i> New Orleans <p/>While drawing from and exhibiting an abiding respect for the traditions of the world's great religions, the author describes a heretofore unexplored method of sacred running, of bringing meditation and a prayerful communion to the running trail.<br>- <i>The New Times</i> <p/>In this refreshingly cogent and practical work, Joslin reveals the many ways in which a regular run can be turned into a lively and enriching encounter with the Divine.<br>- <i>Spirituality & Health</i> <p/>A splendid, new, outside-the-box contribution. . . .
