Peak Performance at Any Age | Christiane Wolf (Dharma Teacher/Doctor/Ultramarathoner)

Beyond the cliché: listening to your body.

Christiane Wolf, MD, PhD is a former physician and internationally known mindfulness and Insight (Vipassana) meditation teacher. She is the author of "Outsmart Your Pain" and the coauthor of "A Clinician's Guide to Teaching Mindfulness". She is also a senior teacher at InsightLA in Los Angeles. And in her spare time, she runs ultramarathons.

In this episode we talk about:

  • How to develop and hone interoception
  • How to do practices like a body scan — and how helpful it can be for all aspects of life
  • How to shift how we relate to our body
  • The four foundations of mindfulness — one of the crucial discourses of the Buddha
  • What a healthy relationship to the body looks like
  • Translating monastic practices to our modern day lives
  • How to reduce stress and suffering in the body
  • Indifference vs equanimity / serenity
  • Helpful questions to ask yourself in cultivating a new relationship with your body
  • The four sources of reluctance or resistance to exercise
  • Discipline vs self-compassion
  • Unpacking the dysfunction among people who overexercise
  • What we can learn from injury
