Psychology Flow

What if you could enter into a stream of consciousness in which life unfolded with ease, flowed effortlessly, AND you could do this at will? What if you could tap into a stream of positive energy where you weren't held back by fear and anxiety, and obsessive rumination were a thing of the past? Welcome to "Flow"—a dynamic state of consciousness accessible through the power of our own present-moment awareness.

Flow is an optimal mental state that you can control, create, and experience every day. Once you learn how to master flow, your happiness will flow quickly and effortlessly as you use strategies to gain control over your life, focus on what matters most, and motivate action toward your goals and dreams. But how do you harness flow?

Optic flow provides all the information necessary to guide a walking human or a mobile robot to its target. Over the past 50 years, a body of research on optic flow spanning the disciplines of neurophysiology, psychophysics, experimental psychology, brain imaging and computational modelling has accumulated. Today, when we survey the field, we find independent lines of research have now converged and many arguments have been resolved; simultaneously the underpinning assumptions of flow theory are being questioned and alternative accounts of the visual guidance of locomotion proposed. At this critical juncture, this volume offers a timely review of what has been learnt and pointers to where the field is going.
