This is an excellent book, which is easy and simple to read on a daily basis. It is peaceful and helpful in providing the mindset that is the foundation of martial arts, helping the reader to remember the important philosophical and mental aspect/purpose behind the physical activity. I recommend it highly, particularly for those like me who live a hectic and fastpaced life.

If I could only have one book, I would have to consider making this the one. I have bought copies for my martial arts friends, my A type, over stressed friends, my family and people struggling with great health issues. This is a gem of useful information. I read a page a day. Sometimes I just open a random page and use it like the I Ching. You don't have to be a Martial Artist to gain a great deal of knowledge and peace from these essays and daily exercises.

This is a cool book. Each page has a martial-arts inspired concept that you can use in your life. You can open it at a random page and have a read. I keep it next to my bed and read one every morning (well, most anyway). They are all things that you can apply to your day.

This book belongs in the library of all serious martial artists and healers. Keep it close and refer to it often. This book covers all or most of the spiritual end of martial arts-- which touches all areas of life. I wish I found it sooner. I studied many healing and martial arts modalities and I was amazed to find so much of that info in this book.

I recently became interested in Martial arts and was searching for a book to teach me the ways in a simple form. This book was cheap, came in perfect condition and the description was perfect everything it said it contained is exactly what I got and more. I would rate this book and it's seller very highly, Thank you.

This is the kind of book that many martial artists will welcome because it gives very practical and valuable suggestions on how to live your life. It is the kind of book you can take your time reading, as each section gives a piece of advice and philosophical wisdom. I enjoyed reading this book and will come back to it often in the future. I can recommend this book to anyone interested in the philosophy of the martial arts.

Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Predator Hunter: A Warrior's Memoir)

This is a fabulous book for the person striving to continue improving their life. Beautifully designed to take in one lesson a day, Bow to Life uses Karate training as a metaphor for life. No need to have ever entered a dojo to gain insights from this book, but if you have, you will undoubtably deepen your understandings.

i,m not one to review books as if i were an expert, so here it is---read it it's worth it.
