Essence of Reflection brings not only the author's martial arts experiences to the forefront, but also his life experiences in order to highlight some reflective thoughts we all can consider along our own respective journeys. A martial arts book from 40 years ago serves as the inspiration for Dan to provide commentary and discussion on an array of topics that can prove beneficial for everyone.
