To me personally flow exists at the confluence of discipline and creativity.
An non violent artistic martial expression.
There are no wrong moves. Just moves you don't know the name of yet.
It has taught me how learn, how to navigate turbulences, how to understand things by breaking them down into their smaller Fractals.
Two lights moving in circles and geometric, exacting patterns. Getting into, and out of the way of things.
It can be said; of grief, of loss, or rises, of wins , it will will never be the same, and that's going to to have to be okay whether or not you agree.
However like with anything you practice, you will get better at it, and when performance is measured performance is increased.
It has informed more of my health and happiness than any other single endeavor.
Flowstates are the most addictive thing on the planet with 6 Neuro chemicals firing in your brain, Oxytocin Dopamine, Serotonin, Anadamine and a couple others. All at once.
It can reset an immune system.
We don't use the term addictive because it's negative. This is auto-telic and naturally arrived at optimal state. The means and the ends.
Typical indications of being in a flow state are;
a richness of information 700% creativity all the right answers come easy.
Effortlessness, boasting 500% boosts in productivity.
time dilation (speeds up slows down)
sense of selflessness, that, nagging defeatist voice is gone.
The difference between you and the masters, is practice.
