”The Flow” Series #1

This is part of the "The FLow" series. Flow is a mental state of an individual fully immersed in an activity. The state of flow is often described as being in the zone. Made famous in the West by Mihaly Csikszentmihali, the concept of flow shares aspects with Buddhist “mindfulness” and “no-mindedness” as well as with the Taoist concept expressed by Zhuangzi as Carefree Wandering. When flowing, an individual will experience time “fly”, the merging of action and self and an overall sense of concentration and purpose.
