FINDING FLOW


In this meditative workshop we will explore the never ending boundaries of the flow state of mind. This all levels workshop is designed to show you how to reach a state of flow during your practices. Flow is the mental state of operation in which a person performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. By focusing our minds on the now, we will learn to achieve such state in our practices everyday.
