Would love to hear everyone's thoughts, experiences and feedback about Flow State. I will start the discussion off with this: I came across this recent study supporting how Flow State may be a whole brain phenomenon. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1053811926003642?utm_source=chatgpt.com Basically, a fascinating new 2026 NeuroImage study compared brain activity during flow, boredom and anxiety using EEG. The finding that grabbed me: During flow, the brain showed the highest overall connectivity, flexibility and complexity of dynamic activity. Researchers describe flow as a highly adaptable, metastable state, where different parts of the brain remain specialized while dynamically coordinating with one another. In simple terms, being “in the zone” may not just be a feeling. It may represent a measurable state where the brain becomes extraordinarily good at working together without becoming rigid. That raises a question I love: Do we enter flow by trying harder... or by finally getting ourselves out of the way? What do you think?

Hey all - I thought it would be fun to talk through some of my thoughts & feelings using the app. Check it out and let me know what you think - or better yet how you feel 😄

Hello everyone! Thanks for your interest in this community. I am curious if anyone has checked out any of the short courses I put in the classroom section, and if so if you have any thoughts, comments, or suggestions. I'm pretty new to skool but I'm excited about the platform and its recent growth so I figured I'd give it a shot. Transparently, I am mostly interested in sharing ideas that have helped me and am excited about being of service to others by sharing them. I'd encourage anyone who feels drawn to this ethos to also share your own ideas, experiences, or thoughts to keep the momentum going! I'll have some more posts coming about other ideas that I think will resonate and provide value, and will reveal something very exciting I've been working on for a while in the next month or 2! Lastly, I'm wondering if anyone would like to play some group Khemset sometime? It would be fun to see how we can work in the non-physical space as a group. I am a big believer in groups of people being able to accomplish things and break new ground that is significantly more challenging as an individual. Let me know and thanks again for being here!

Years ago, during a particularly challenging time in my life, I sought advice from many people. I was seeking inspiration and clarity, as I often take time to absorb different perspectives when I’m at a turning point before I proceed in my life. One conversation with a friend led to them recommending me a book, “How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci: Seven Steps to Genius Every Day” by Michael J. Gelb. In that book, I learned many things that still inspire me to this day. One such thing, the idea of “mind mapping”, and I have continuously returned to this creative and imaginative activity over the years. Recently, during a thunderstorm, kept dry in my backyard on the patio, I got inspired once again to create a mind map. I figured it was a good thing to share to possibly inspire others as well. Enjoy 🧙‍♂️

Hello Chewy. Thank you for the invite. Let me know how I can help in any way you need. That offer goes out to any of the members here too. Chewy and I have been down many of the same rabbit holes but even more interesting is how many completely different rabbit holes each of us have been down yet we arrived at the same places. Different journeys/same destinations and many variations of the same hypotheses with the poker table as our laboratory for life & the universe. This space is going to be very interesting...
