494 Gwen Zywicke - When Your Adventures Produce Mystical States

<p>I'm excited to introduce this week's guest, Gwendolyn Zywicke. I recently read her fantastic book, <em>Ultrarunning Mysticism: Mind, Body, Spirit and the Sacredness of Overcoming Suffering</em>. This book put words to an experience that I had had many times but couldn’t describe.</p> <p>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.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>About Gwen Zywicke</strong></p> <p>Gwen is a senior instructor of communication studies at Louisiana State University, an ultrarunner, and a perpetual student of philosophy.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Guest's Links</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.facebook.com/gwen.zywicke">Facebook</a></li> </ul> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Listen To This Episode</strong></p> <p><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/ready-to-bloom-podcast-business/id685978804?mt=2"> <img class="alignnone wp-image-14801" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/itunes.png" alt="" width="170" height="62" /></a> <a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/business-mindset-podcast-holly-worton-business-marketing/id685978804?mt=2"><img class="alignnone wp-image-14800" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/apple-podcast.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="63" /></a><a href= "http://app.stitcher.com/browse/feed/37814/details"> </a><a href="http://app.stitcher.com/browse/feed/37814/details"><img class="alignnone wp-image-14802" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/stitcher-button.png" alt="" width="172" height="63" /></a> <a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/6yivALm9RBb4yn3qGl2x54?si=IRvv6Ma7TVCOC-MqPDwU8A"><img class="alignnone wp-image-16128" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/spotify.png" alt="" width="177" height="62" /></a><a href= "http://sociallyholistic.libsyn.com/spotify"> </a></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>What You'll Learn</strong></p> <ul> <li>W
