What is Conscious Golf?
Conscious Golf explores the potential for self-awareness through the game of golf. Golf acts like a mirror for our inner world and is a powerful tool to become more conscious. Golf naturally highlights conditioned patterns of behaviour and thought that are within us so that whatever we believe about ourselves off the course will always manifest itself on the course. Conscious golf aspires to challenge some of this conditioning so that you can win the innner game and stop beating yourself. Conscious Golf is open to players of all ages and abilities and takes place in Spain, Sweden, and the UK.
What are the main principles of Conscious Golf?

*Master the critical and judgmental mind
*See golf as a meditation in action
*Master strong emotions such as doubt, fear, and anger.
*Develop unconditional confidence in yourself
*Learn the life lessons the game teaches
*Stop beating yourself
*See Golf as a tool for self-discovery, learning and inner peace

Paul is in the unique position of being a lifetime golfer with a wealth of experience in the game alongside 30 years of spiritual practice and self-development work.
'I have always seen golf as a meditation in action. A practice of staying present with what is going on both within you and on the course. Golf offers the possibility of being in nature whilst playing a sport that requires creativity, discipline, imagination, and the potential to be both humbled and amazed within a relatively short period of time. I love the nature of the game. It always brings me joy, gratitude, and deep appreciation for life as well as valuable personal insights.'

Golf is the most Zen-like game. The balls waits to be hit and it's all done in our own time.
This combination makes the game unique for internal work. This is backed up by the countless books and movies that have explored this subject.
Are the courses delivered on the course or in a meeting room?
To begin and end the day we will be in a meeting room to share our focus and feedback for the day but the course is experiential which means being on the golf course. You will have the chance to play 18 holes of golf every day and practice as much as you like.
Is there any technical golf tuition?
This is not a technical course, although some pointers and guidance may be offered if necessary.
The main focus is on the inner game and becoming more conscious.
