Asked what her drug of choice was during her wild years, she said: "Oh, all of it, just all of it. There are no more drugs. What really saved me, obviously, was going to meetings and stuff like that but I'm a Buddhist, I chant and I'm really serious about it.

"I'm a Nichiren Buddhist so I sit there in the morning [chanting] and it's really changed my life ...Turned everything around."

Quizzed on how long she chants for, she said: "As much as I can, an hour ... It's like doing sit ups."

But the 'Celebrity Skin' hitmaker also admitted she gets bored meditating.

When told by host David on the 'Late Show With David Letterman' that he gets bored when he meditates, she added: "I get bored too."

Courtney also opened up about her daughter Frances Bean - whom she had with the late Kurt Cobain before his suicide in 1994 - and the documentary she's made about his life.

She said: "She's absolutely great, she's 22 ... She's 22 years old. She's brilliant. She's an ex ecutive producer on this documentary about her dad ... It's very moving and I've seen it three times. I'm probably not going to see it again, it's too much."

Courtney Love has compared practicing Buddhism to doing sit ups.

After a disastrous few weeksthat saw Tiger Woods fall to the lowest rank of his careersince going pro in 1996, the 39-year-old world former No. 1 announced he would be taking a break from the professional circuit to shore up his skills.

Right now, I need a lot of work on my game, and to still spend time with the people that are important to me. My play, and scores, are not acceptable for tournament golf, Woods wrote on his Web site Wednesday. Like Ive said, I enter a tournament to compete at the highest level, and when I think Im ready, Ill be back.

Woods briefly outlined a practice strategy before assuring his fans, I do, however, expect to be playing again very soon.

While Woods can practice and dissect the mechanics of his swing all he wants, some suspect the solution to his struggles lie elsewhere in his mind.

You have to have technique, but you also have to have a tremendous amount of peace of mind and confidence and not be thinking of your technique when you play the shot, said Joe Parent, author of Zen Golf: Mastering the Mental Game.

This is what we call paralysis from analysis. Youre thinking so much about your technique that you lose two important features: Visualization and feel are absent if your mind is filled with thoughts of technique, he added.

Parent, like Woods, is Buddhist, and he thinks the Eastern religion can help Woods regain his footing, especially when it comes to his short game, where Woods has really seemed to run into trouble. A clip showing Woods overshooting a hole about 25 yards from the edge of the green during the Farmers Insurance Open last week went viral for all the wrong reasons. Later that day, Woods withdrew from the tournament.

The closer you get to the hole, the more mental the game is, Parent said. Parent, who has not worked with Woods, but has worked with the likes of Vijay Singh and Cristie Kerr, added the Buddhist concept of mindfulness can help players get over their hangups, whether theyre to do with emotional turmoil, an aging body or a return from injury all things Woods has had to deal with.

In the Buddhist positioning, thoughts and mind are not exactly the same. Your mind is bigger than your thoughts. What mindfulness means is that your mind is full of perceptions of the present moment, Parent said. If you are thinking then youre separated from (the present) and therefore you lose the feel and the imagery, the visual and the kinesthetic perceptions.

Mindfulness can be practiced just like a swing. Michael Lardon, author of Mastering Golfs Mental Game: Your Ultimate Guide to Better On-Course Performance and Lower Scores, developed a technique he calls Left Brain, Right Brain, No Brain. The system takes into account rational, left-brain analytics, which in Woodss case would deal with something like his swing technique, as well as more creative, imagination-based imagery your right brain offers. Finally, the two sides culminate in No Brain, which is where the mindfulness truly occurs its when a player lets go during the swing, concentrating on nothing but the present moment.

Buddhism and Ashoka for nes6grade - Video

Rocker Courtney Love has credited Buddhist meditation chants with "saving" her life after using the mantras to completely overcome her drug troubles.

The Hole star infamously struggled with addiction issues and substance abuse for years, but she found inner peace when she turned to Buddhism, and claims twice-daily chants have transformed her life and aided her sobriety.

She tells U.S. talk show host David Letterman, "What really saved me was, obviously going to meetings and stuff like that, but I'm a Buddhist. I chant and I'm really serious about it. I chant twice a day."

Love reveals she relies on one particular devotional mantra to keep her mind clear and focused, adding: "I'm Nichiren Buddhist so it's Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo. So I sit there in the morning, 'Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo, Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo, Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo,' and it changed my life. Absolutely. It turned everything around."
