Losing yourself in flow state | Diane Allen | TEDxNaperville 

It's freaking amazing how she is replying to comments even after almost 2 years of the talk.. respect!

the audience should have clapped after her amazing performance

30mg adderall and you’re on your way to the flow state. Welcome to my Ted talk. Thank you thank you

As an artist I love being in this flow state it's addictive, not leaving to go and 'human' until discomfort can't be banished out of mind any longer. I do wish I didn't overthink or get too caught up in creating the right conditions that I stop myself from simply getting started so much though, I would probably end up in flow state much more often.

i find my flow state most naturally when im doing something i love and its something i have done over and over. For me flow state is akin to muscle memory, when i apply a formula over and over to the point where i can recall it without thinking, when i can glance at an equation and begin solving it without so much as a second thought. Flow state makes me efficient, and a metaphorical work horse, i can work for hours and itll feel as if only minutes have passed. Ironically realising you are in flow takes you out of it and it emphasises the importance of not being mindful, i lose myself and my worries melt away in a sea of numbers and symbols and a flurry of turning pages. If you take anything away from this it should be this: doing what you love is an easy way into the flow state and continuous practice will allow you to activate it more frequently.

Last time I felt the flow state was with my rowing team. Everyone was in sync, silent, and the only nose was the click of the oars, the rush of the water beneath the boat. It was crazy

I’d love to have this peace on loop for my mornings

What a treat to listen to your flow state🌟☀️🙏🥰 Thank you 🙏 Let’s get this teaching into primary school and through to perfection in high school🌟☀️ Bless your courage💜

I excel in flow state when I am sleeping

i was just lost in the beautiful music .

My flowstate only shows up 45 minutes before an assignment is due

when you come out of flow state you feel as though you have been on top of the world ,it certainly is a gift of human mastery from god and when you see what you have accomplished an added treat.It's magical . a few times i experienced it while drawing , and fast ,rhythmic walking while listening to music earphones in nature on a sunny day and dancing.🤗

So cool to hear your thoughts on being in the flow state!

I loved living in Naperville. I find my flow state very simply. I just write what the story or piece tells me to do. Thanks for you wonderful presentation. You're inspiring. MN

this really helped me. I learned my flow state was opening my heart and leading with love

I wish everyone could experience flow. For me I feel it when I mountain bike on my favorite trails or when I pick up my guitar and play something I really love. I just can't imagine my life without flow.

"Where are you mostly when you experience flow?" great insight!

It's as if you lose yourself but you actually find yourself.Your music is adorable superb.

Ask yourself these three questions to discover your flow strategy: 1) Where are you mostly when you experience flow? 2) What are you doing there? 3) WHY are you doing it? What is your purpose? Try to transport that purpose to different areas of life. That is your flow strategy.

havent watched yet but flow state of mind found me when i started studying a language I love(started in the morning and looked up and didnt realize it was later afternoon when i stopped) (didnt know loved it that much and never studied a day in my life) and even just today i was focused ALLLLL DAY improving my drawing. i dont take any breaks for anything unless i rlly rlly rlly need to go to the bathroom which prob isnt good. but as a major procrastinator, the flow state of mind is something im so grateful for and dont even try to get into. it just happens to me on anything I work on. but i didnt know it can be used for anxiety which i rlly rlly need to figure out lol

Lovely🤗

May the Flow be with you! :)

Wonderfull, highly inspiring. Thanks a lot for sharing your wealth of knowledge.

amazing ted talk!! loved it!

Thank You Diane, enjoyed this immensely and you helped me delve into flow.

Estoy estudiando la maestria de MindFulness Conciencia Plena Aplicada y nos dejaron ver este video; justo porque estamos estudiando el Estado de Flow, excelente Diane !!!

I loved it! ✨

Why did this make me emotional lmao

Music so good, i love it

This was wonderful. Thank you!

Even a bad experience and in attempt to recover from it using meditation and staying logical to new information and open to different waves of emotion we certainly start losing urself and suddenly u feel that u r the initiator and every situation is in ur control feels effortless and time slows down and u see things in slow mo and you become very attentive as if u r not just the body u r awareness of everything, that's how I felt the flow in 2019

Flow state= losing myself by getting into the... Music, meditation, sport performance... Its an óptime state of mind when we feel our best performance.

Marvellous music. Too good.

What a gorgeous performance.

Amazing

I used to be able to get into a deep state of flow playing basketball and dancing but my health has kept me from it and I've actually got depressed.i miss that sort of outer body experience I can remember those moments like they were yesterday but I can't get it back

i wish we could meet i could explain it exactly and also how to enter it anytime the most direct way there is I've been inflow for many years now nonstop, the mind is mostly silent passive it all just happens effortlessly bike riding is the best the body and boke move as one no thinking needed this is also called the no-mind state mushin

this is it chief.

Search the Flow strategy... In the inside. 🙏

What was that song you were playing at the beginning? I really liked it. Thanks

Can you be in the flow state during Meditation and prayer?

Flow like water into the pure fabric infinity...

Hi Diane, please could you tell me the pieces of music you play at the state and at the end? Thank you, and wonderful talk

i do this to make music it just comes out of me effortless

It’s so good doing backoffice work for a couple of hours whenever I come back I feel like I’ve accomplished so much

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

i need to know the name of this beautiful piece of music!! Ive been a violinist for about five years now and this performance just shook me. amazing!!

Hey can anyone tell what's the name of the song miss Allen played at the beggining ?

What is that absolutely beautiful piece of music? I've been trying to find it...someone plz tell me so I can listen to what I assume is probably a lot longer

Well I have a weird experience I don't know what it is or is it related to this video. But there was a one time I was in a serious argument with my brother. words are just flowing I was completely immersed on it. But the moment I realized what I was doing I lost the that flow I cannot get back on to it. This also happens when I am writing essays or reading a book. At some point I realize what I am doing and I can not do it again like how I was doing it perfectly. This really bothers me 💔Especially when this happens in an exam

They put this on TV, but we are powerful be healthy.

Try to help others my strategy to enter in the Flow State! 👍🏻

65 is a magical number #%^

When i was young. I played my first basketball league. We we're down 6 points. It was tiring, i ran out of stamina, i wanted to stop. But then i snapped. I told them to give me the ball and just ran and ran. But sadly i dont love basketball that much anymore due to reasons. Im starting to play again but how can i go into flow again,m

what is the music she plays at the start of the video? I love it.

My girlfriend enters flow state reliably around the same time every month.

But how do you enter in flow state when you are a perfectionist 😩?

could I request English subtitles? I'm so curious about this video but i can't 100% understand it

How do i get into flow state in gaming? It would be nice if someone could help me out in answering this question
