Download or read book Golf for Enlightenment written by Deepak Chopra, M.D. and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2003-03-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deepak Chopra has discovered the delights—and frustrations—of golf, and he is passionate about the game. Confronted by the wild ups and downs of his own play, he consulted with golf professionals and developed a new approach to the game that any golfer can follow—from the novice to the expert. The results can be measured not only in increased enjoyment and skill, but also in greater wisdom about life beyond the 18th hole. Chopra’s own game has improved dramatically since incorporating the elements of his program. Instead of focusing on the mechanics of a “perfect” swing, Chopra reveals how golf can be mastered through mindfulness, a form of awareness that combines sharp focus and relaxation at the same time. Expanded awareness, he tells us, can accomplish much more than external mechanics to improve one’s game. But Golf for Enlightenment is also an engrossing story about Adam, an Everyman who is playing a terrible round of golf when he meets a mysterious young teaching pro named Leela. In seven short but profound lessons detailing spiritual strategies, she teaches Adam the essence of a game that has much to explain about life itself. Chopra has spent the last year taking the unique message in Golf for Enlightenment nationwide, teaching the essential tenets of his program at lectures and seminars to golfers everywhere. His message continues to help players turn an obsession into a positive life path.

Download or read book Yoga for Golf written by Ervin Ruhe and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of golfers fail to make the very beneficial association between golf and Yoga, and you know what? The fact is that Yoga is increasingly being seen as a great way to improve a person?s performance and skill in a number of sports?not just golf. If you are both a golfer and also possess the knowledge of what specific Yoga exercises and poses to do, you are going to be able to dramatically improve your golf game! In addition, you will also have an edge over your fellow golfers who still have not yet discovered the amazing benefits that Yoga can provide to one?s golf game, in which you will read about all sorts of eye-opening golf tips to improve your game. Yoga is a wondrous physical, spiritual and mental discipline because it improves the quality of your life, and that extends even to your golf game! You could also just keep doing what you have been doing without any results. This important foundation is the human body, and, more importantly, various aspects of it, such as its trunk, its hips and its abdominals. With Yoga, you can powerfully build up these integral body areas that are vital to great golf performance!The game of golf is one that is really centered around the golf swing; if you do not swing your golf club properly, you will have no luck at all in getting anywhere in golf! This is where Yoga comes in, let me tell you. First of all, just think about the typical swing of the average golfer: It's all centered on the abdominal/core area of the human body, which is the trunk/torso, essentially. Being able to move this core area of the body with both power and stability is what drives the effectiveness of the golf swing. As such, the success of the swing of an average golfer will be largely dependent on the strength and the stability of this core area of the body. Any time you see a professional golfer who has an absolutely awesome and powerful swing, you should realize that this means that his or her core is highly developed. Yoga is perfect for building up this part of the body. Take, for instance, the Yoga plank poseThe hips are enormously important, too, when it comes to swinging the golf club effectively and with power. If you have ever observed?I mean, really, really observed?a golfer swinging his club, you are going to notice that it is all based on his or her hip rotation. In fact, a golfer without much flexibility or range of motion in his or her hips is going to do very, very poorly at the game! Additionally, a golfer who possesses very good flexibility in his or her hips is also likelier to be able to hit the golf ball with greater amounts of both power and speed! What golfer does not want to hit the golf ball with greater power and speed? There is a multitude of Yoga exercises that can help you develop greater hip flexibility, resulting in greater power and speed in your golf swing. You may have noted that quite a bit of golfers actually suffer from rounded shoulders. Yes, I realize I used the word ?suffer? because rounded shoulders are really a postural defect. What?s more is that said rounded shoulders are actually going to have an adverse effect on the golfer?s golf game. You see, if you have rounded shoulders as a golfer, you are going to be subject to an incomplete rotation on your golf swing. In other words, rounded shoulders will retard your rotation and cause you poorer performance on the golf course! However, this is nothing that Yoga can?t handle, especially the specific pose called the Yoga Cobra Pose, which works to correct this regrettable, postural defect of rounded shoulders in a golfer. In it, you will discover such effective remedies as the Yoga Cobra Pose for potential postural defects that you have that prevent you from reaching the full potential of your golf game.I have talked to golfers, and I know that they constantly want to improve their golf game. You can find a myriad of golf tips that teach you all about using the wondrous, all-natural discipline of Yoga to improve golf!
