A High-Impact Experience Runners Will Remember

Looking for an unforgettable wellness offering for your race expo or training retreat? This neuroscience-based experience helps participants mentally prepare, emotionally reset, and physically recover, creating the kind of elevated race weekend moment they’ll rave about long after the finish line.

Studies show that mental imagery and mindfulness techniques improve pacing, enhance confidence, and regulate cortisol and adrenaline levels, two key markers of performance and recovery for endurance athletes (Guillot & Collet, 2008; Tang et al., 2015; Fadare et al., 2022) Our Theta-Centric Sound Meditation method also supports parasympathetic activation and allostatic load recovery, helping runners restore both mind and body without lifting a finger.

This experience can be delivered as a group activation, a rolling meditation lounge at your expo, or a VIP small group upgrade. We come to your venue, handle everything on-site, and provide a science-backed experience that elevates your race’s wellness and performance offerings.

The Experience & Benefits

Runner-Specific Visualization for pacing, flow, and mindset.
Breathwork Activation to relieve stress and reduce pre-race anxiety.
Theta-Centric Sound Meditation for complete brain-body reset.
Science-Based Recovery to reduce cortisol and improve energy.
Mobile On-Site Experience that seamlessly fits your expo or event

Key Highlights

Enhance Performance Through Mental Rehearsal: Guided visualization improves focus, perceived readiness, and endurance by priming the brain’s motor and strategic pathways (Guillot & Collet, 2008).
Support Nervous System Regulation & Calm: Breathwork and meditation reduce pre-race anxiety while improving heart rate variability and recovery speed (Tang et al., 2015; Cahn & Polich, 2006).
Deliver Science-Backed Recovery After the Race: Sound meditation helps discharge built-up adrenaline, cortisol, and muscle tension while accelerating parasympathetic recovery (McEwen & Wingfield, 2010; Schleip et al., 2012).
Offer an Elevated, VIP-Caliber Wellness Experience: Whether delivered in rolling sessions or booked as a premium upgrade, this service offers a standout moment for runners to relax, reset, and reconnect with their goals.

What to Advise Participants to Bring

Yoga Mat or Comfy Pad
If employees prefer using their own mat or cushion, encourage them to bring it along for maximum comfort.

Blanket & Pillow
Some participants enjoy extra coziness to enhance relaxation—especially helpful in cooler conference rooms.

Comfortable Clothing
Advise team members to dress in loose-fitting, breathable attire that won’t restrict movement or relaxation.

Custom-Branded Sets (Optional)
You can request Sound Bath Meditation sets—including mats, blankets, and pillows—branded to your company or event. Keep them on-site for future wellness sessions or provide them as a memorable, practical gift to each participant. (Contact Us for a custom quote and lead time.)

A Few Friendly Reminders

Phones: Let’s unplug together—switch them to silent or off, so everyone can immerse in the experience.
After the Session: We’ll share a brief reflection circle. Feel free to hang out and soak in the positive vibes!

Health & Safety Information for Teams

Major Medical Conditions
Suggest that pregnant employees, those with pacemakers, epilepsy, or other significant health concerns, check with their physician before attending.

Comfort Levels
If anyone feels discomfort—physically or emotionally—they’re free to adjust their position or quietly step out. The main goal is a safe, restorative experience.

Illness & Exposure
To promote a healthy environment, encourage staff who are unwell or recently exposed to contagious illnesses to sit out or reschedule for a later date.

Consultation & Alignment
If your organization has unique health protocols or accommodations, let us know in advance, so we can tailor the session to align with your corporate guidelines and participant needs.
