"Flow," often described as being "in the zone," is a psychological state of deep and effortless immersion in an activity, where you lose any sense of yourself, time and possible distractions.

It's a concept that was introduced by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, in the 1970s and provides an important aspect of the Engagement element of Martin Seligman's PERMAH model within the world of positive psychology.

Having an understanding of Flow might help you to support your coachees in improving their own wellbeing.

In this episode of our podcast we explore Flow, what it is and what it isn't, and how it might be useful in the coaching room.
