Developing the perfect golf swing is a science that is put down to pure physics. In a nutshell what you want to happen is for the club to swing back on the swing plain, this mean going back in a straight direction in line with you target. From here you want to continue swinging back until your wrists cock, where the club should be parallel with the ground. This is the end of the back swing. From here you want to lead your down swing with the hips and make sure that your club and club face follow through on the swing plain, swinging off the swing plain with clause you to hit a draw or fade. Lastly as you follow through you must keep your head down and continue the momentum of your swing going until your swing has fully finished. Ok so how do we put this all together.

Firstly before we look at the back swing lets look at how you are going to address the ball before you swing. Normally what you want to hit your lowest clubs, your wedges off the middle of your stance and as you move up your clubs slightly move the ball forward in your stance. This should be done until you will have the ball been hit off somewhere between the inside of your front foot and your toe for your driver. The reason you want to this is because your low iron have such a high loft and since they have such a high loft you want to hit them striking downwards so that you dont catch the ball thin and hit the ball with the right trajectory. Obviously as you move up the clubs the lofts get lower so you want to hit the ball more on the up.

Ok so once we have got a hold of this we can than start to swing the club. So as I said before when performing the backswing we want to make sure that the club stays on the swing plain and that you cock your wrist once your club reaches parallel with the ground. To make sure that the club stays on the swing plain, insure that when you swing back you swing straight back and that you do not over rotate your hips, over rotating your hips will cause you to draw the club around your body and when you end up swinging through the ball you will hit a draw.

So next we want to unwind and perform the downswing, this is where all the build up of power from the backswing is released so that we can accelerate the club through the ball and generate the power to hit the ball. One of the most important things about performing the downswing is that you lead it with your hips, you do not want to try and generate the power to hit the ball with your arms, your arms a merely a tool for grasping the club. All the power that you generate to hit the ball should come from you hips. This is imperative for insuring a good golf swing. Along with this it is also important to keep your club swinging along the clubs swing plain and inline with your target. This will insure that you hit the ball straight and not hit a draw or fade.

Lastly we want to perform the golf swings follow through. Basically in the follow through what you want to continue to insure is that your club remains on the swing plain, your head stays down through the ball and that you fully let the power of your golf swing unwind. You do not want to interrupt your swing half way through your follow through; doing this will affect your downswing and may result in you not hitting the ball cleanly. To sum up these are a few tips that should be able to put you on the right track to developing a good golf swing and in the more wider sense developing a better golf game. I hope this help and happy golfing.

We may feel we are familiar with the practices of prayer or meditation and we may have tried these unsuccessfully and wondered why such time honored avenues to self empowerment have failed to work in our lives. We may hear many testimonies that describe the effective power to transform our lives which these practices can bestow upon us and we may have felt frustrated that we have not learned how to use these tools to make ourselves feel happier, healthier or more content. Now a new tool, the Chakra Song, is available which may help you to realize the goals you may have felt you might never be able to attain.

Many healing traditions all refer to an energetic body that is the template for our physical body and which is directly related to our health, happiness and wellbeing. This energetic body has nodes of energy called chakras which are directly related to different aspects of our health and how we manifest our lives in this world. When the energetic body is functioning poorly we may work to heal it; one of the most fundamental parts of the work we must do to heal our energetic bodies is to cleanse our chakras of stagnant energy.

Clearing our chakras has immense benefit. Our natural energy flow can be bogged down by so many different things. Anything which creates stress impedes the health of our energetic body, that part of us which is healed by practices like Reiki, yoga or acupuncture. When the energetic body is healthy our minds work better, our emotions are healthier, and our physical bodies become healthier as well.

Our energetic bodies respond to our thoughts. This is why when we are conflicted or angry or depressed our energetic bodies become damaged and then function poorly. This is also why simple meditation or prayer can be so effective at restoring us to a state of wellbeing in body mind and spirit. By focusing our thoughts on healing our energetic body we restore ourselves to happiness, health and wellbeing.

It can sometimes be very difficult to learn how to meditate or pray effectively. Our minds are often too bemired by inner turmoil or too easily distracted by external and irrelevant influences. It takes patience to learn to quiet our thoughts so that we may empty ourselves of all the beliefs and conditions which may get in the way of successful prayer or meditation.

We must learn to recognize that many of our thoughts are vicious circles that never arrive at any functional conclusion but simple run about and about in circles endlessly consuming our minds and our time. Once we see that this is true we may begin to recognize when thoughts of this nature arise in our minds and begin to interrupt them, to stop thinking them. The more we practice not thinking these consuming thoughts the more we free our minds to think in healthier ways and the closer we become to realizing true internal peace.

In that peaceful state we can focus our thoughts more clearly on those things which really matter most to us, like our health. We can take control of our wellbeing and direct ourselves to become healthier, happier and more content. This works because everything that is manifest in the physical plane of this world begins as a thought form in our energetic bodies. By cleansing and healing our energetic bodies we create an effective thought form or mental template for our state of being which is healthier, happier and more fulfilling.

This template then manifests in the physical world by making our bodies healthier and bringing us new opportunities to enhance our lives and the lives of those we love. In this manner, the simple quiet practices of prayer or meditation become transformational tools with which we can effectively change our lives and make the world around us a happier, healthier more abundant place for all of us to share.

To help with the visualization work related to cleansing my chakras I decided to write a song. Song is one of the most powerful tools in my life. The music is borrowed from the Popcorn part of the soundtrack from the movie A Clockwork Orange. I chose this music because it is so happy, light and energizing. I hope you will find the music for this song and will then enjoy it as much as I have. This song works! It has practically written itself. My chakra visualizations are much stronger and clearer. What's more, as I was composing this song during my drive home from work I had scarcely any pain, typically driving has been a very painful activity for me because of needing to grasp the steering wheel, even when I remember to use my open palm against the steering wheel rather than grasp it the pain while driving has been pretty bad. No more! Please feel free to modify this song in any way that works best for you.

Please note that your visualization of the chakras may take some time, many years for me, but I have now given you the key that turned the trick with me. Dont worry about where you visualize these at first, it can be easier to visualize them in front of your minds eye and then later transfer them to their respective places within your energetic body.

Chakra Descriptions Crown Chakra - located on the top of the head, it is connected to your divinity
Third Eye (Brow) Chakra - between the eyebrows, related to intuition & ESP
Throat (Voice) Chakra - near the larynx, related to speech & self-expression
Heart Chakra - below the sternum, related to healing, love & compassion
Solar Plexus (Mind) Chakra - behind the navel, related to power & mental functions
Sacrum (Loin) Chakra - behind the sex organs, related to sex, emotion & creativity
Root Chakra - below the base of the spine, related to security, instinct & survival

Your visualizations need not be complex at first and may begin with the individual chakra colors which you may then try to shape into balls of light. As you get better at visualizing balls of color for the chakras start to visualize the petals of each chakra as they appear on the surface pointing inward. Then visualize the petals unfolding outward from the center to form flower shapes. As the flower shapes appear visualize the petals stretching out into cords of energy that radiate outward like stars. Later as you visualize all the chakras radiating watch as the rays of the brow chakra descend through all the chakras in a weaving pattern like a caduceus. The rays of the other chakras will mingle with one another filling out your energetic body.

Today my energetic body resembled a tree covered in vines with all the chakras within it glowing and radiating and merging their energies into all the subtle leaves (organs or nodes) of my energetic body.
