It explores the vital role ‘running’ has on wellbeing.\n\n\n\nAre you interested in running but don’t know where to start? Are you a runner who sometimes lacks motivation to run? Are you keen to find out how running might contribute to wellbeing? Join this event to share experiences and explore answers. \nThis in-person event will be held in the Midlands Arts Centre (MAC) in Cannon Hill Park. You will have the opportunity to participate in ‘Cannon Hill parkrun’ prior to the event should you wish to do so or simply watch parkrunners running past the MAC before you arrive at the first session of the event which will start at 10:00. \nThere will be three sessions. The first session will feature a short talk and a discussion focusing on how runners’ stories can be motivational and inspiring and how they can help us understand the ways in which running can contribute to mental and physical wellbeing. The second session will involve some interactive activities on ‘parkrun’\, the internationally-known free running event which takes place every Saturday morning in a multitude of venues in over 20 countries\, and in more than 1\,200 venues in the UK alone. Whether you are a parkrunner or not\, it will be your opportunity to find out how impactful parkrun can be on our wellbeing. The final session of the event will feature a round table discussion with a panel of guest speakers discussing how running outdoors can support mental and physical wellbeing. \nThe event will be led by Dr Nur Kurtoglu-Hooton\, member of Aston Research Centre for the Humanities (REACH) and Aston Centre for Applied Linguistics (ACAL)\, researching social\, cultural and digital characteristics of running communities. She is an avid runner and participates in long distance running events including ultras. \nThe third session of the event will feature guest speakers: \nDr Simon Cook is a human geographer at Birmingham City University who researches social\, cultural and spatial aspects of running. He runs a bit\, mostly on his commute. \nCeridwen (Ceri) Howell is a Leader in Running Fitness\, runs Couch to 5K courses and is a masters athlete on the track and longer distances. \nChris Palmer is a Leader in Running Fitness\, runs Couch to 5K courses and is a GB masters sprinter in the M70 category. \n 09:30-10:00 arrival and coffee/tea and pastries \n10:00-10:45 Session 1 Looking for inspiration to run \n10:55-11:30 Session 2 “parkrun” as a social and cultural movement \n11:45-12:45 Session 3: Round-table discussion and Q&A: Couch to 5k\, run-commuting\, running for leisure\, health and wellbeing \nThe event is open to adults (runners of all distances and those who have never run before but are interested in running). \nYou are welcome to attend any\, or all\, of the 3 sessions!

This Theta state is conducive to cellular healing and recalibrates your body and mind. \nSound therapy is an ancient art which enables the brain to reach Theta waves thereby bringing your body into a parasympathetic state helping to regulate blood pressure\, ease tension\, reduce anxiety and simply relax your mind\, body and soul. Let yourself drift off and wake later fully rested\, knowing the sound frequencies have helped stabilise your inner compass. \nGo on treat yourself by taking an hour out from your week to relax and let the tension disperse\, immerging yourself in the transformational sounds and vibrations of a pure bliss Sound Bath delving into a deeper state of rest and relaxation which can help rebalance the mind and body. \n***This event is suitable for age 13+ years.

Wake later fully rested \nWe begin with a short guided meditation which leads into a beautiful sound bath using a wide variety of sound healing instruments such as the Ocean drum\, Tibetan and Crystal singing Bowls\, Gongs amongst others through which you will experience a variety of vibrations in the room generated by them.
