  Drew Millard loves golf. As a kid, he enjoyed the game, but since college, his clubs had been gathering dust in his parents' basement. And then, a bout with depression led him back home to haul them out of the unfinished storage. 
   
   
   
  It was what the doctor had ordered. In addition to medication and therapy, Drew needed to exercise. Exercise was not something he did. But golf? Sure, why not? As Drew fumbled his way through his first round in years, he discovered that sucking at golf was his new calling, one that helped him find a sense of balance and rhythm—both on the course and in his own mind. 
   
   
   
  Drew's connection to the game inspired him to write this book, and his passion is infectious. Combining great storytelling with fascinating historical tidbits and moving personal insights, he writes about everything from how golf taught him to be a better listener, son, and friend, to how to slow down, appreciate what he has, and keep fighting the good fight. Along the way, he demystifies the customs, history, and rules of the game. 
   
   
   
  Brimming with personality, accessibility, and a freewheeling spirit, How Golf Can Save Your Life is a celebration of the sport and an examination of all it offers.

  Martial Arts Mastery -...

  Martial arts have a rich history that spans thousands of years, evolving from ancient practices of self-defense and combat into a diverse array of styles and philosophies. The origins of martial arts can be traced to civilizations around the world, with evidence of early techniques and methods seen in ancient Egypt, Greece, China, and India. These practices were often closely tied to the need for survival, whether in warfare or personal defense, and they evolved as cultures exchanged knowledge through trade, conquest, and exploration. 
  In ancient China, martial arts were deeply influenced by philosophical systems such as Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. Practices like Tai Chi and Kung Fu emerged not only as methods of combat but also as ways to harmonize the body, mind, and spirit. Similarly, in Japan, the samurai culture gave rise to martial arts such as Jujutsu, Kendo, and Karate, which emphasized discipline, honor, and respect for one’s opponent. Indian traditions, particularly those rooted in yoga and ancient combat systems like Kalaripayattu, played a significant role in shaping the spiritual and physical elements of martial arts in the region. 
  Philosophy is central to martial arts, transcending physical techniques to cultivate a way of life. Concepts such as humility, perseverance, and self-control are core to most styles, emphasizing that true mastery lies in the refinement of character rather than in brute strength. Martial arts often teach practitioners to seek balance, both internally and externally, encouraging them to remain calm under pressure and approach conflict with wisdom rather than aggression.
