Getting into Flow is Happiness

By

Flow or being in the zone are described as engaging in activities in which we are practiced to the exclusion of all distractions. The result is performance at the top of our scale and production of the neurotransmitter dopamine.

We certainly hear being in the zone  described in sporting contexts.  Flow is the same activity that can be experienced during any activity including writing, cooking, playing music, running, working, or hobbies.

So, if we wanted to exist in the happiness state all day, we would engage in activities we enjoyed.  Doesn’t seem to complicated.  I am sure we all want to engage in activities we enjoy, but often think we have responsibilities or our job that get in the way.

It maybe true, but this also says that happiness is no further away than creating the time to engage in our passions.  Don’t have any passions, time, energy?

One way to start creating more energy and getting our world grounded is to start eating more healthy and focus on eating just natural food.  Complement that activity with more muscle burning exercise even if you start with 10 minutes a day.

The further you get with healthy eating which leads to getting lean and more muscle burning exercise, the sooner you will start to feel more energized and inspired.  Getting our bodies fit creates a real connection to Nature.

The next biggest avenue for safe risk and excitement is self expression. What could you do that is uniquely you that would put something out into the world?  You may have to start at step one.  Do you want to write, paint, start a hobby, start a small business?  What is it that might express you?

The better you get at your new found activity, the sooner you will get into flow where there is nothing but you and your engagement.  Happiness doesn’t have to be purchased, it has to be sought.
