About this listen

 Defeat and joy, struggle and serenity, fear and confidence, the emotions that arise in the practice of sports make it a fitting paradigm for life as a whole. In this unique work, Bob Mitchell looks at the mysteries and challenges of the Game and what it has to teach us. He makes a compelling comparison between the experience of participating in sports and the effortless action that lies at the heart of the Tao. The result is a highly practical and imaginative work that is part philosophy, part poetry, part common sense.©1996 by Bob Mitchell (P)1997 by Audio Literature Buddhism Other Religions, Practices & Sacred Texts Philosophy Zen

Critic reviews

"[The Tao of Sports] probably won't make many Taoists into sports fanatics. But it may make many sports fanatics realize that they are already closet Taoists." (Stephen Mitchell)
All stars

Brilliant, wise, motivating, and definitely a great reader for any of those with the performance anxiety.

Excellent to give motivation to any serious athlete that might be too hard on herself or has lost their passion for the sport.
