This week’s mindful moment is all about bringing a little joy and rhythm into your day: move in time with music. Pick a song—any song—and let it guide your movement. You don’t have to dance (unless you want to). Whether you’re walking, doing chores, or just swaying while you wait for the kettle to boil, let the beat set your pace. Feel your breath sync with the rhythm, notice the way your body responds, and allow yourself to enjoy the moment fully.

Music is a powerful mindfulness tool—it lifts your mood, grounds you in the present, and adds a little spark to even the most mundane tasks.

Spend just five minutes with this practice, and see how it can bring calm and clarity to your day.

What do you get when three generations of women lace up and hit the trails together? A whole lot of heart, laughter—and maybe the occasional friendly nudge to run a little further than planned.

In this feel-good episode of the ZenRUN Podcast, we meet Sally Bower—the third (but not least!) runner in a family of past podcast guests. You’ve already heard from her daughter Harmony and granddaughter Juliet… now it’s time for the matriarch to take the mic.

Sally didn’t grow up sporty—in fact, she was the kid picked last for school teams. But later in life, she found joy in movement, community in parkrun, and freedom in running her own pace. Now in her 70s (with two titanium knees, no less!), Sally runs not just for fitness, but for connection, curiosity, and the simple joy of moving forward.

You’ll hear:

•How Sally went from ‘never a runner’ to regular parkrunner and trail half-marathoner

•What it’s like running side-by-side with her daughter and granddaughter

•Why being part of a running community beats chasing a PB every time

•Her practical, heartwarming motivation tips for staying consistent

💡 Sally’s Top Running Motivation Tips:

– Break it down into parkruns (because 5K always feels doable!)

– Set short-term, gentle goals that keep you moving without pressure

– Run with others—accountability and companionship make all the difference

– Do what brings joy, whether that’s running fast, slow, or chatting your way through every kilometre

– And if in doubt… bring the dog! 🐾

This conversation will leave you smiling, inspired, and maybe planning your next run—with a friend.

This week’s mindful moment invites you to transform a chore into a meditation: clean one thing mindfully. Choose a single object—your kitchen bench, a mirror, your running shoes, even your keyboard—and give it your full attention. Slow down and notice the movement of your hands, the sound of the cloth, and the scent of the cleaner. Wipe, breathe, and observe.

This simple act of presence turns a routine task into a moment of care—not just for your space, but for yourself. You’re not cleaning to tick something off a list; you’re reconnecting with the here and now. It’s a quiet reminder that mindfulness can be found in the smallest of actions.

Spend just five minutes with this practice, and see how it can bring calm and clarity to your day.
