Wouldn't it be great to be able to maintain childhood flow ability?
I think that perhaps the "sitting in front of a TV" feels like flow for many people, as they zone out. It is a cycle because it becomes addictive, but also takes away a lot of the incentive to reflect, since there is always something more to watch.
I am getting it back, bit by bit. We never lose it. It just gets crusty and needs a good scrubbing, sometimes we need to dig to find pieces of it and put it back together.
Play all the time!
