A Quote by Clint Eastwood
To me, life is like the back nine in golf. Sometimes you play better on the back nine. You may not be stronger, but hopefully you're wiser. And if you keep most of your marbles intact, you can add a note of wisdom to the coming generation.

Learning how to get in tune with your field of energy and understand how to create your energy, expand that energy, and move that energy through your body.
