Flow theory describes a state of mind where body and mind are wholly absorbed, time appears to slow down, obstacles seem manageable, stress and anxiety are virtually non-existent.
Flow is neither good nor bad. It simply is. Flow can lead to experiencing life more fully and intensely. We can experience more meaning. It also can strengthen how we define who we are.
“One of the most frequently mentioned dimensions of the flow experience is that, while it lasts, one is able to forget all the unpleasant aspects of life,” Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Happiness.
