Flow State - Where Are We Going Wrong?

50 minutes

This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind that operates ''Before Psychology''- the Secret Source that exponentially increases the peace, performance, and potential for any individual or organisation.

This episode dives deep into the concept of 'flow' with executive coach Tim Downes. Piers and Tim discuss the innate human potential to experience flow, often misunderstood as a state that requires specific activities or external validations. They examine how recognising and inquiring into the nature of our true awareness—not our conditioned, separate self—can lead to a more consistent, effortless state of ease and flow in daily life. Key concepts such as mindfulness, the illusion of self, and the universal accessibility of flow without external aids are explored. The conversation covers:

Understanding Flow

Barriers to Flow

The Role of Self in Flow

Are There Phases to Flow?

Practical Insights on Achieving Flow

Summary: The Myths About Flow
