Do you experience any of these?

* First tee nerves
* One bad hole or shot ruins the next one
* Can't switch off the chattering mind
* You are your own worst critic and compare yourself to others
* Can't enjoy or trust your game
* Golf has lost it's fun
* Your game lacks imagination and inventiveness
* You choke under pressure

I could go on and on, but if you answered "Yes" to any if those then you should start looking at your inner game. None of the above have anything to do with technical issues or swing mechanics - they are all the result of what is happening in your mind.

Welcome to Golf In The Moment. My name is Mahadeva Ishaya. I've been teaching meditation, yoga and mind/body strategies for over a decade. I'm also a golfer, and I know that what is going on in my head directly affects what happens on the course.

You've probably heard it a hundred times, "Stay in the moment", "One shot at a time", and you've seen, and possibly experienced, how the runaway mind can make even the best of golfers look like a no-hope hacker!

So, what is the secret to the golf mental game? It's simple. Get out of your own way. You've probably experienced it - those points when everything flows, almost as if the shot is created through you and you experience a harmony within your swing. You know the ones - the shots that keep you coming back to this wonderful game. That is golf in the moment.

The key to better and more enjoyable golf is to be able to experience that as your normal mind-state. If you can do this you are better able to fulfill your golfing potential.
