Anamaya is a revolutionary new mediation app, founded on 20 years of rigorous scientific research, and exploring 11 different focus areas, including sport.
Founder of the app, Graham Doke, has been lucky enough to work with some incredible runners over the years, including gold medallists at Commonwealth level and a number of World Record holders. In the ultra-running world, he has helped runners prepare for legendary events, such as the Tour des Geants, Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc, Western States, Sakura Michi and Coast to Kosci.
Graham is a strong believer that the mind is central and critical to a runner’s success, and a runner who wishes to perform at their peak must have a focused determination and an unwavering eye on the goal. Distractions can – and will – detract from performance.
We all know the body can run – it’s designed to. But testing your body to the absolute limit in running can only be done through intense training. This is also true of the mind. The mind can think, but the ability to think in a disciplined manner requires training.
Just as we spend long, hard hours training the body, we must also train the mind – the two must be thought of as a partnership. Meditation is training for your mind; it’s a great way of calming the nerves and gathering focus prior to competition, and to help you relax after training. With this in mind, Anamaya is offering one lucky reader the chance to win an exclusive six-week meditation course with Graham himself. Covering all aspects of mind training, including the art of maintaining focus, the six-week course will allow you to mentally prepare ahead of your next big race.
