Intuition and Flow

Understanding the concept of flow was important to learn in order to better understand myself.



Flow is an interesting phenomena where a person enters a heighten sense of awareness. During the state of flow, body and mind interact as one. I was totally unaware I ever went through such an experience until it was pointed out in this class.  Before I would enter a state of flow, I would try to resistant it.    Ever since that lecture, I have learned to embrace the alternative state of mind and benefit from being able to think freely.


 


Another interesting concept that was discussed was the relationship between anxiety and creativity. It can be shown that anxiety blocks the creative process.  Even small amounts of stress can build up and compound upon, until a breaking point occurs.  I often have a lot of stress and have never realized that it was inhibiting me from obtaining my full working potential.


Free the mind and relax.  


As Leonardo Da Vinci states
“Relaxation gave me the ability to see things from another perspective.”
