Be gentle
to yourself
and others!
“Life is hard enough to add extra suffering to it”. We propose here a way to build a stronger, healthier and happier self through gentle running. Then, this “ascetic hedonism” can be translated into several aspects of life, to humbly contribute to a better world.
You can help your fellow humans and the world in general by sharing this site and its links.
