Get the free Core Drives in the Wild guide, behavioral design applied to real products: professorgame.com/WildCD Episode Summary Dan Shapiro, author of Decoding Genius: The Unexpected Lessons of After-School Chess Club, shares how a father-son hobby turned into a study of why chess has held people's attention for more than 1,500 years. He walks through Miguel Najdorf's feat of holding 45 blindfolded chess games in his head at once, the built-in rating system that keeps every match in a flow state, and the habit of chess notation that teaches players to review their own decisions. Listeners come away with a clearer picture of why well-tuned difficulty curves matter, why chess maps onto Core Drive 3 (Empowerment of Creativity & Feedback) and Core Drive 7 (Unpredictability & Curiosity), and how curiosity itself works as a design tool. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways Miguel Najdorf played 45 simultaneous games of blindfolded chess in an exhibition, tracking every board from another room purely through memory. Chess's built-in rating system pairs players against evenly matched opponents, a real-world example of designing for flow state as difficulty rises with skill. Chess notation, the practice of recording every move, teaches players a habit of reviewing their own decisions that most people never apply outside the game. Judit Polgar broke Bobby Fischer's record to become the youngest grandmaster in chess history and remains the strongest female player of all time. Chess has held its relevance for roughly 1,500 years, traveling from the Gupta Empire through Persia and the European Renaissance. Dan Shapiro names curiosity as his personal superpower, mapping directly onto Core Drive 3 (Empowerment of Creativity & Feedback) and Core Drive 7 (Unpredictability & Curiosity).

INNER VOICE — A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine & Meg Tuohey, E467. This heartfelt conversation with psychologist, relationship expert, author, and marriage repair innovator Meg Tuohey explores the power of the INNER VOICE, inner wisdom, intuition, loneliness, self-trust, authentic living, relationships, personal growth, and emotional connection. Meg brings decades of clinical experience helping thousands of women and couples reconnect with themselves, understand their inner world, and navigate fractured relationships, identity, and life transitions. Her evidence-based, neurodivergent-affirming approach combines psychological rigor with compassion while honoring women's agency and inner authority. Her podcast, Wisdom Stripes, has reached more than 1.8 million lifetime downloads and ranked among the Top 15 Education podcasts in the United States. Her first book, HeartPrint, expands her mission of helping women create lives grounded in meaning, resilience, wisdom, and self-trust. MODERN LONELINESS & THE SOCIAL PARADOX Meg and Dr. Foojan Zeine explore the paradox of increasing loneliness despite a growing human population. They question whether loneliness may be more prevalent in fragmented Western societies compared with Eastern communities with stronger family structures. They discuss how modern life, distance from nature, individualism, and survival pressures can disconnect people from their authentic, community-based selves. CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES ON LONELINESS Dr. Foojan Zeine discusses how culture influences loneliness. Even in Eastern cultures with strong family and community ties, people may feel lonely when their internal experiences do not match external expectations. Meg offers a broader perspective, suggesting loneliness can become a catalyst for human growth, evolution, self-discovery, and transformation. They explore the strengths and challenges of Eastern and Western approaches to belonging and connection. LONELINESS, LIFE TRANSITIONS & INNER WISDOM Meg discusses why we need to explore challenges such as loneliness rather than simply avoid them, emphasizing the balance between healthy independence and enmeshment. Dr. Foojan Zeine shares an example of a client experiencing loneliness during major life transitions, including aging parents and children leaving for college. Meg explains the central ideas behind HeartPrint: To Unlock Wisdom, which explores building a relationship with your INNER VOICE and inner wisdom. Her “heart print” concept shows how every person has a unique expression of identity, values, purpose, and life experience, even though we share the same DNA. CULTURAL LEADERSHIP & THE JOURNEY TO WISDOM Meg describes her mission to be a lighthouse and container for people exploring their true selves and bridging the gap between who they are and how they live. She shares how seeking wisdom from elders inspired her own journey toward eldership and cultural leadership. Meg discusses supporting women in creating cultural change, trusting their inner authority, and developing greater self-awareness and wisdom. Dr. Foojan Zeine reflects on intuitive wisdom and self-discipline, drawing parallels to Meg's journey of finding internal guidance. INTERNAL ALIGNMENT & FLOW STATES Meg and Dr. Foojan Zeine explore internal alignment, self-attunement, intuition, inner wisdom, and FLOW STATES. Meg emphasizes becoming attuned to your inner voice and aiming for approximately 80% coherence in daily life rather than perfection. She encourages people to remember moments of flow, presence, ease, connection, and deep alignment, then gradually access those qualities in everyday life. Dr. Foojan Zeine shares that finding balance can involve letting go of control, trusting, and allowing internal and external experiences to connect naturally. SELF-ATTUNEMENT, FLOW & SELF-TRUST The conversation concludes with a powerful reminder that developing a relationship with yourself is foundational to developing healthy relationships with others. Meg encourages listeners to cultivate self-attunement, intuition, emotional awareness, authenticity, inner wisdom, and self-trust. Through HeartPrint and the character Elizabeth, Meg offers a role-modeled approach to exploring the relationship between the inner world and outer life. This heartfelt conversation with Meg Tuohey and Dr. Foojan Zeine invites you to listen more deeply to your INNER VOICE, understand loneliness differently, reconnect with your authentic self, and discover the wisdom already within you.

Can one molecule almost double our lifespan?Chris Burres is the founder and chief scientist at MyVitalC, the oldest and longest manufacturer of the Nobel Prize-winning ESS60 molecule. He came here to explain why almost nobody has heard of it.The story gets stranger the further in we go. Rice University scientists discovered this ball-shaped carbon molecule in 1985. It performs better than most existing materials in batteries, tires, and inks, and its antioxidant properties are far more powerful than vitamin C. Then a French toxicity study produced unexpected longevity results.Chris outlines the manufacturing process, the liver recovery data, the cancer cell study, the sleep testimonials, and the pet results that leave placebo out of the argument.If you've ever taken C60 and wondered whether you were drinking expensive pee, this one is for you.Visit myvitalc.com/lukestorey and use code STOREY for $30 off your first order.You'll learn:[0:00] Introduction[5:38] The rat study that found 90% longer lifespans[14:15] The graphite-vaporizing, oxygen-free reactor process behind manufacturing pure ESS60[21:18] Adding "not for human consumption" while biohackers kept calling about their 275-pound rats[34:14] The multi-billion-person sleep study we run every daylight savings time[48:47] Why five ampoules a flight became part of my air travel arsenal[55:29] Exploring whether C60 can detox your brain the way activated charcoal can't[1:27:50] The gossip behind the Nobel Prize and the grad students who discovered it but got nothing[1:37:50] Why manually stacking the youth peptide and ESS60 beats using an emulsifier[1:42:45] The Sesame Street test for spotting C60 products that contain zero C60[1:50:39] Three teachers who shaped ChrisResources Mentioned:Wizard Sciences: Use code LUKE for 15% off all products!

Steven Puri has produced Academy Award-winning visual effects on films like Independence Day, Braveheart, and Se7en, climbed the executive ladder at DreamWorks and 20th Century Fox, and built three tech companies — two of which failed. Out of those failures came a powerful question: why do some people sustain high performance without burning out, while others grind themselves into the ground?In this episode, Jeff and Steven break down what flow actually is, what your brain is doing when you're in it, how to trigger it consistently, and why most founders are unknowingly working against their own neurology every single day.Key Takeaways[0:00] — Multitasking is a myth. Your brain context switches — and every switch costs you.[4:10] — Steven's origin: bet on proximity to greatness. From Virginia to USC to an Academy Award for Independence Day.[14:55] — What Hollywood taught him: single-minded determination is what separates good from legendary.[22:25] — The Fox wake-up call: he was just the guy in the chair. So he left to build something of his own.[38:55] — The accidental flow state: a Wi-Fi outage on a 2.5-hour flight produced his best work ever — and he didn't even notice time passing.[48:20] — What flow actually feels like: time disappears, distractions drop, self-consciousness fades, and you finish feeling energized — not drained.[51:20] — The neuroscience: fMRI scans show prefrontal cortex activity drops in flow. You stop editing yourself and just work.[55:30] — The 15–23 minute rule: that's how long it takes to drop into flow. One interruption resets the clock.[1:01:00] — Ron Bass's rule: no family talk until he'd written for hours. "When I start talking, I can no longer hear the voices in my head."Tweetable Quotes"Our brains don't multitask. They context switch — and every switch costs you energy you could have spent going deep." — Steven Puri"It takes 15 to 23 minutes to drop into flow. One Slack ping resets the clock to zero. That's not costing you a minute — it's costing you a whole session." — Jeff Mains"You can have results or excuses. Can't have both." — Steven Puri"When I start talking to my family, I can no longer hear the voices in my head. And that's what I get paid for." — Ron Bass (via Steven Puri)"The companies with the biggest incentive for your distraction don't want you to write the book, start the company, or open the restaurant. Your graveyard is their business model." — Steven Puri"Americans overestimate what they can do in a day and underestimate what they can do in a year." — Steven Puri"Why use your brain poorly? You wouldn't type on your keyboard upside down." — Steven Puri"Even if it's just one hour a day, make that hour have the power of two." — Steven Puri"Think of the one thing you could do today that would move your life forward. Don't go to sleep until it's done." — Steven Puri"Build a business of significance while living an epic, adventurous life — that is the whole game." — Jeff MainsSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Proximity to Greatness Is a Strategy Steven's career accelerated every time he put himself in rooms with top performers — from mopping floors near Michael Jordan (metaphorically) to working under Fincher and Cameron. For SaaS founders: deliberately seek mentors, communities, and masterminds where the standard is higher than your current one. You absorb more than you realize.2. The Chair Doesn't Define the Mission Steven hit a wall as a studio executive — well-paid, high-profile, but not his. He was "babysitting Die Hard 5." Many SaaS founders face this inside larger orgs or even their own companies as they scale — doing the job instead of building the vision. Define what you are building, not just what the role requires.3. Protect Your Peak Hours Like Revenue Just as Ron Bass refused to speak to his family until he'd written for hours, the highest-output founders treat their cognitive peak hours as non-negotiable protected time. For most people this is morning. Block it. Turn off Slack. Tell your team. That hour generates disproportionate value — protect it before the reactive demands of leadership consume it.4. Flow State Is a Competitive Advantage — Not a Luxury The research shows flow produces output up to 5x greater per hour. For a SaaS founder juggling product, team, and go-to-market, the difference between 1 hour of deep flow work and 1 hour of fragmented distraction is compounding. Learning to trigger flow is not a wellness exercise — it is a business efficiency investment.5. Monotasking and Time-Boxing Are Table Stakes Multitasking is scientifically false. Context switching burns cognitive resources. The most productive founders pick one thing, finish it, then move to the next. Pair this with Parkinson's Law: time-box every task. Estimates train your brain, create urgency, and prevent the endless stretch that kills output. These two habits alone will outperform most productivity systems.6. One Thing Per Day Compounds Into a Different Life Steven's simplest and most powerful habit: before touching the phone each morning, identify the one thing that would move your life forward today. Not five things. One. Do it before the day's noise sets in. Thirty days of this looks like progress. A year of this looks like a different company.Guest Resourceswww.thesukha.co/mediaSteven@TheSukha.cowww.TheSukha.cohttps://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-puri/Episode SponsorThe Futureproof Series - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfkXKUPZ5xuOqMPR7_gzGybncTtavyR1NThe Captain's KeysSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code ‘SaaSFuel'Champion Leadership Group – https://championleadership.com/https://jeffmains.com/books/SaaS Fuel ResourcesWebsite - https://championleadership.com/Jeff Mains on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffkmains/Twitter - https://twitter.com/jeffkmainsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/thesaasguy/Instagram - https://instagram.com/jeffkmains

There's a sound older than language, and it still knows how to bring us back to ourselves. We're sharing the story and the science behind OmState, a four-track listening experience built on a single foundation: 40Hz. Three tracks carry mantras that have moved through thousands of years of human devotion, and one track uses a modern restorative frequency design to help you carry the shift into your day. The thread that ties it together is simple and bold: ancient practice and modern neuroscience may be describing the same nervous system destination in two different languages. We dig into gamma brainwaves and 40Hz brain entrainment research, including how rhythmic stimulation can help neurons synchronize and support the brain's communication systems. Then we connect the dots to the body: vibroacoustic therapy concepts, humming studies that increase nasal nitric oxide, and why your own voice can act like a vagus nerve intervention. If you've ever felt wired but tired, or “fine” on the surface while disconnected underneath, this is a practical framework for shifting state without needing to adopt a new belief system. We also walk through each track's intention and how to use it: Om for resonance and coming home, Brainwave Biomantra for clarity and insight, Shanti for compassion and connection, and Flow State for focused action where self-criticism quiets and skilled work stays online. You'll leave with a clear listening ritual, guidance on headphones and sequencing, and a way to reach for the right track when you need steadiness, clear thinking, an open heart, or deep creative focus. If this resonated, subscribe for more science-backed sound and nervous system tools, share the episode with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review so more people can find it.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

An unvarnished look at biological delay, post-earthquake survival spikes, performative 'gurus', and why real regulation doesn't mean speaking like a textbook.Why does panic or deep exhaustion often hit days after a crisis has passed? When an intense survival event (like an earthquake) shocks your environment, your nervous system can mobilize high adrenaline to keep you functional in the moment—only to process that somatic charge days later when the physical threat has subsided.In this episode, I share a candid real-life application of how I navigated a delayed panic attack following an earthquake, the exact Level 2 sub-somatic shifts I used to down-regulate, and how to know whether your nervous system has the baseline capacity for self-led micro-habits vs. when a clinical therapeutic container is needed.(0:00) – The Real-Life Event: Earthquake Panic, Biological Surge, Systemic Complexity & Spiritual Ascension(5:55) – Responsible Boundaries: Self-Led Capacity vs. Clinical Therapeutic Containers(12:48) – Understanding Somatic Delay: Why Panic Hits Days After the Crisis, Release Can Take Days, & Double Awareness(15:35) – Step-by-Step: The Exact Level 2 Sub-Somatic Reset Deployed in Real Time(16:20) – Level 1 Integration: Moving from Survival Spike to Biological Composure(18:30) – Matching the Tool to Your System: Free Reset vs. 1-Day SMART Micro-Habit Guide(19:45) – Autonomous Regulation & Empowered Growth: Authentic vs. 'Fake' Regulated LeadershipShift from Reactive Survival Loops to Real-Time Empowered Composure—The SMART Way.

Most women know they should move their bodies, eat well, and protect their sleep. But creativity rarely makes the list.In this conversation, Dr. Mindy sits down with Dr. Daisy Fancourt to explore the growing body of research showing that art is far more than entertainment or decoration. Music, reading, dancing, crafting, storytelling, and even spending time with a painting can affect stress, mood, cognition, connection, and the nervous system.Daisy explains why creative activities can help the brain enter a state of flow, how music can slow the heart rate, and why reading fiction may strengthen empathy by allowing us to experience the world through another person's perspective. She also shares why knitting, singing, dancing, and other so-called “grandmother hobbies” are finding their way back into modern life.In this episode you'll learn:Why creativity became separated from everyday lifeHow to choose music that meets your nervous system where it is How regular creative activity may support healthier cortisol patterns Why book clubs provide more than a reason to read What the research suggests about art, brain fog, and cognitive reserve Whether online creative classes offer the same benefits as meeting in person Simple ways to bring more creativity into everyday lifeResources MentionedArt Cure by Daisy FancourtInstagram: @daisy.fancourtMore on Daisy FancourtDr. Daisy Fancourt is a researcher and author whose work examines the effects of arts and cultural engagement on health and well-being.Her research explores how activities such as music, reading, crafting, dancing, and visiting cultural spaces may influence mental health, stress, cognition, social connection, and physical health. She has published extensively in the field and works on projects examining the biological, psychological, and social effects of creative participation.For more resources related to today's episode, visit the podcast episode page: drmindypelz.com/ep357Connect with Dr. Mindy:Join Reset AcademyWatch the episodes on YouTubeFollow Dr. Mindy on InstagramSubscribe to Dr. Mindy's newsletterDisclaimer: This podcast is intended for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.

Spiritual health isn't about following a specific religion, meditating on a mountaintop, or taking the sacrament (unless you want to do those things). It's about something deeper—our connection to something greater than ourselves, our capacity for faith, and the hope that carries us through life's challenges. Dr. Lisa Miller is a New York Times bestselling author of The Spiritual Child and The Awakened Brain. She's a professor in the Clinical Psychology Program at Teachers College, Columbia University, and the founder of the Spirituality Mind Body Institute—the first Ivy League graduate program dedicated to the study of spirituality and psychology. Her groundbreaking research has been published in over 100 peer-reviewed articles, and she's a sought-after speaker, working with the U.S. military, Fortune 500 companies, schools, and healthcare organizations to integrate spirituality into mental health and leadership. Spirituality isn't just a belief system—it's a proven driver of resilience, purpose, and well-being. In this episode, we dive into: ✔️ How spiritual health impacts mental resilience and emotional well-being ✔️ The neuroscience behind spirituality and how it physically changes the brain ✔️ Why faith—whether in God, the universe, or your inner wisdom—makes you stronger ✔️ Practical ways to nurture your spiritual health (without needing a formal practice) Because here's the truth: Whatever created you, lives within you—and that alone makes you inherently valuable, worthy, and powerful.

The deepest states of healing and flow are not something we have to force. They are something we gain access to, when we finally stop interfering.Today's guest is Dr. Arpit Bansal, an advanced laparoscopic and cancer surgeon, gut-health and longevity specialist, international speaker, and the visionary known as the “Aquaman Biohacker.” Drawing from more than 15 years in medicine, along with his exploration of breathwork, consciousness, biohacking, and underwater meditation, Dr. Arpit bridges the worlds of modern science and the innate intelligence of the human body.In today's conversation, we explore how to access what Dr. Arpit calls the quantum flow state through the practice of coherent non-intervention—a state in which we release force, control, and resistance so that the nervous system, breath, body, and awareness can return to coherence.We also dive deeply into the healing power of water as a living environment that can support nervous-system regulation, emotional release, expanded awareness, and a profound return to stillness.Dr. Arpit shares why water has become both his teacher and his laboratory, how immersion can change our relationship with our bodies and minds, and that our greatest medicine already exists within us.This episode is another reminder that healing does not always come from doing more. Sometimes, it begins when we allow ourselves to become still. Send us Fan MailThis episode is brought to you by Ojas Oasis Ayurveda, Sasha's private clinical practice.

Previous episodes have explored the physical form and function of fascia and its interactions with the nervous and immune systems. Today's conversation ventures into more new territory, exploring the relationships between fascia, flow state, and embodied experience. Host Katja is joined by Fiona Rose Stout PhD, an interdisciplinary researcher, bodyworker, and movement therapist seeking to connect diverse perspectives from neuroscience, creative arts, bodywork, and yoga. Together, Katja and Fiona explore the fascinating relationship between fascia, movement, and nervous system regulation. They discuss why fascia may provide an important biological lens for understanding embodied awareness, how movement practices can cultivate greater adaptability and resilience, and why integrative thinking is essential when exploring trauma, healing, and the mind-body connection. They also unpack a recent opinion article challenging "The Body Keeps the Score," offering a nuanced discussion about predictive coding, fascia, and contemporary trauma science. "There's an experience that happens when you actually feel that connection and that integration." — Fiona Stout. — What You'll Learn: • Introducing Fiona [01:13] • Flow state and why it matters for embodied movement practitioners [04:40] • Fascial fluidity implications for flow state [11:48] • Connections between nervous system regulation, trauma and flow state [15:11] • Supporting fascia with curiosity, varied movement, bodywork, myofascial release [21:03] • A nuanced discussion of "The Body Keeps the Score" [29:05] • Predictive coding and recent article "The body does not keep the score" [37:05] • Why integration, not dualism, may better explain human experience [45:11] • "Different strokes for different folks": final takeaways [50:28] — Links Mentioned: Watch this episode on YouTube Kotler S, Mannino M, Fox G and Friston K (2026) The body does not keep the score: trauma, predictive coding, and the restoration of metastability.

In this episode we discussed Keith Urban's cover album "flow state" released in June 2026. Dennis shared his recent vinyl purchases including Iron Maiden's "Peace of Mind" and Weezer's cover album, while Bill mentioned acquiring a KISS Record Store Day book. The conversation then shifted to Anika Nilles, who is currently drumming on Rush's reunion tour. Finally, the discussion moved to when bands should retire, with examples including Bon Jovi's recent health issues and the debate over whether legacy bands like Foreigner and the Marshall Tucker Band should continue touring with changing lineups and few to no original members.

The neuroscience behind why willpower fails — and what actually works instead Productivity improvement isn't about forcing focus, it's about alignment. Tracy Brinkmann explores the neuroscience of why willpower-driven focus damages your brain and destroys real productivity. Discover how flow states, natural cognitive alignment, and authentic success mindset create sustainable results. Perfect for entrepreneurs tired of hustle culture shortcuts. https://YourSuccessDNA.com https://DarkHorseEntrepreneur.com Tracy argues that struggling to force yourself to work isn't laziness but a neurochemical warning sign of misalignment. It explains that forced focus activates the anterior cingulate cortex (conflict detection), dysregulates dopamine and destabilizes norepinephrine (and acetylcholine), and can intensify default mode network activity, leading to mind-wandering, depletion, and decision fatigue. The host critiques productivity hacks like Pomodoro when used on purpose-conflicting tasks, claiming they can train the brain to associate focus with internal conflict. The alternative is aligned focus, which reduces internal conflict, stabilizes attention chemistry, and enables flow. Listeners are urged to ask three alignment questions before pushing through, distinguish protective resistance from fear-based avoidance, and complete a writing prompt: “The task I keep avoiding is avoiding me because ____.” 00:00 Forced Focus Myth 00:52 Willpower vs Brain 01:15 Conflict Alarm System 02:10 Ego Depletion Chemistry 03:59 Default Mode Rebellion 04:45 Aligned Focus Flow 05:56 Alignment Over Hacks 07:06 Decision Fatigue Spiral 08:44 Three Alignment Questions 10:40 Meaningful Work Triad 13:23 Discern Resistance Types 15:48 Whiskered Wisdom 17:17 Final Takeaway Focus, why cant I focus, procrastination, how to stop procrastinating, neuroscience of focus, forced focus, flow state, what is flow state, burnout symptoms, dopamine, how to increase dopamine naturally, productivity tips, decision fatigue, how to align your goals, authentic success habits, entrepreneurial success habits, habits for success, habits improvement, mindset habits, mindset success, self improvement mindset, success mindset habits, productivity improvement, productivity habits, authentic success habits Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of the Pipeliners Podcast, host Russell Treat talks with Jerad Stack, co-founder and CEO of Flowstate, about why "leak detection" means different things to different people in the pipeline industry. The conversation covers how Flowstate models pipeline behavior with physics-informed neural networks instead of traditional real-time transient or purely statistical models, and how that approach handles gathering systems, slack line, and the ongoing trade-off between sensitivity and reliability.

In this episode I sit down with Dave Nelson, author of The Tao of Flow and performance coach to C-suite executives at Fortune 500 companies, whose work sits at the intersection of ancient Taoist wisdom, modern neuroscience, and elite performance science. Dave shares his own burnout story — the migraines, the exploding phone, the 2500 staff and the moment his body finally said enough — and we talk about what it actually means to balance the yin and the yang in your life, why most people never experience flow state even once, and how being regulated in the nervous system is the real foundation of high performance. We also get into breathwork, meditation, the magic of doing nothing, and why playfulness is not a luxury but a biological necessity.This one surprised me in the best way — deeply practical, honest, and full of things I needed to hear.Connect with Dave:https://taoofflow.ai/Instagram.com/davenelson.officialWORK WITH ME 1:1:❥Softening into self- 3 month 1:1 with Whats App Support: https://marina-yt.mykajabi.com/offers/PAWQhZHu❥❥1:1 Coaching with me: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfWcZM5s9c2OjOLwoGMI5jE6rh_JAzjN2d_vCtuVe7e3pVGxw/viewformDOWNLOAD FOR FREE:Stay or Go: 5 Clarity Questions to Reconnect with Your Inner Knowing: https://marinatriner.com/stay-or-go-guideAttatchment Practice: Discover the actual blocks beneath the surface so you can actually have the deep intimacy you crave: https://marinatriner.com/attachment-practice Connect & Ground: 10 Incredible Somatic Practices for Nervous System Regulation: https://marinatriner.com/connect-and-groundAlive & Aligned: 7 Embodiment Practices For Self Connection: https://marinatriner.com/alive-and-alignedTrigger to Rooted: A step by step process of working with your triggers: https://marinatriner.com/trigger-2-rooted VIEW MY COURSES & RESOURCES:https://marinatriner.com/resources CONNECT WITH  ME:Follow me on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/marinatriner/ Subscribe to YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@marinatriner Top Episode Quotes:"High performance is yin and yang.

PICKLEBALL THERAPY  ·  SHOW NOTESEpisode 304 – Tap Your Flow What this episode is aboutFlow is not something you go out and acquire. It is already in you. This week I make the case for that, and then I show you what the work for finding your flow actually is.Do you already have flow? Yes.Picture yourself waiting to return serve. The serve gets hit. What happens next is remarkable, and you do it without thinking about it:•     Your brain tracks a ball spinning through space•     It calculates where that ball will be at a moment in the future•     It moves your body to that place in space•     You hit the ballYou were doing that before your first lesson. Before your first pickleball YouTube video. Nobody taught you. That is your supercomputer running software that came pre-installed.So what is the work?Removing interference. Taking away the noise. Clearing out the distractions and obstacles so that you can stop trying to think your way through the rally and start feeling the rally instead.Playing by feel more than by thought.One example of interference: trying to read paddle anglesPlayers ask about this a lot. How can I learn to read my opponent's paddle at contact so that I know where the ball is going? It's a fair question.To be sure, some coaches teach it. But think about what you are actually asking yourself to do. You are moving. You are tracking the rally. And now you want to also read a paddle face at the moment of contact.There is a better way. When the ball travels to one side of the court, you start to sense where it is likely to go next. Will you get surprised? Sure. Once, maybe twice. Then your brain adjusts. That is flow doing the work instead of your conscious mind.Watch the pros. It looks like they are gliding. They always seem to be where they need to be. They are sensing the rally.Pickleball is musicThere is a rhythm to a rally. Learn to hear it and move with it, and you are in flow. That idea sits at the center of what we are doing in the Flow Project.The Flow ProjectFive weeks. Five bite-sized chunks. Focused on your mechanics.Here is why it works: you have probably already tried the frontal approach to learning pickleball. You want a better third shot drop, so you watch 87 videos and take 32 clinics on the third shot drop. Fine. Let's come at it from a different angle. That's what the flow project is all about.No cost.

A pickleball player who wants to grow in the sport. Period.On the question of whether the pro work I've been doing lately means a pivot away from amateur coaching: no.

What does it mean to be so absorbed in the presence of God that everything else fades? In this message, Pastor Casey unpacks "flow state" as a picture of life in the Spirit — tracing three rivers through Scripture, from the quiet, personal place of being planted by the water, to the corporate river that flows out from the church into a dying world, to the eternal river that never runs dry. Come ready to ask: how deep in the river are you?

Racing a British special forces vet already disappearing over the horizon. Colin started sweating within the hour. Then crying. The tears froze to his face. He called his wife Jenna from the ice. She didn't tell him to quit. She told him to focus on one thing. Get to the first waypoint. Half a mile away. That night in his tent, a mantra came to him out of nowhere. You are strong. You are capable. He said it out loud every morning for the next 54 days. Day one, he barely made it. Day two, eight miles. Day three, nine miles and his first real minute of flow. Even having multiple world records to his name, Colin still wakes up scared most days. This story is about what he does with that fear, not how he gets rid of it.

You know the feeling. Time bends. The work moves through you rather than from you. Self-consciousness drops away and something quieter, more capable, takes over. Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi called it flow. Neuroscientists call it transient hypofrontality. Athletes call it the zone. Whatever name you use, the experience is unmistakable, and the brain state behind it is measurable: elevated alpha and theta waves, a quieting of the prefrontal cortex, and a whole-brain integration that most of us can access only occasionally, and rarely on demand.This Vibe Drop is built to change that.Crystal singing bowls tuned to 432 Hz carry a note progression drawn from the creativity and motivation protocols of precision sound therapy, with intervals selected for their documented effects on the autonomic nervous system, cognitive activation, and the release of nitric oxide and endogenous opiates that accompany deep harmonic resonance. Himalayan singing bowls add warmth and support heart rate variability, creating the physiological calm the body needs to allow focus to deepen rather than strain. Beneath all of it, a continuous 40 Hz gamma isochronic pulse anchors the session neurologically, the same frequency range identified in landmark research at MIT as a driver of neural integration, cognitive resilience, and long-term brain health.This is not background music.

There's a moment every creator knows: you sit down to work and the air feels thick. The task is right there, but your mind fights, judges, delays, and tightens. We call that “the wall,” and we treat it as what it often is: a nervous system stuck in low-grade threat, where your brain keeps scanning instead of creating. We start with a bigger frame for Chronic Disease Awareness Day and National Wellness Month, linking chronic inflammation, metabolic dysregulation, cognitive erosion, and immune suppression to years of accumulated stress and fragmentation. Then we make the case for coherence: the trainable skill of returning to balance so your attention can drop into deep engagement. Flow state isn't magic or motivation, it's a brain and body that feel safe enough to stop monitoring and start moving. From there, we break down the Flow State sound architecture in detail: 40 Hz gamma for integration and cognitive clarity, layered with 396 Hz, 528 Hz, 741 Hz, and 852 Hz to support liberation, repair, mental sharpness, and expanded perception. We explain why crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, and drums are used, how rhythmic entrainment changes state, and why the C E G triad is chosen as a stable, grounding container for action and expression. You'll also get simple listening protocols for creative prep, high-stakes performance, deep work, breaking through a mid-project stall, and end-of-day reflection. If you want your best work to feel less like force and more like flow, press play with us, then share this with someone who's been stuck. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us when you hit the wall most often and what you're creating next.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Have you ever found yourself in a steady, productive rhythm of doing something that feels seemingly effortless, yielding effective, consistent results?In this special solo episode, Aubrey talks about a phenomenon most of us know, but few can fully describe: Flow State - that synergy between input, action, and output. Also referred to as being "In the Zone" or "On Auto-Pilot", Aubrey discusses:Where flow state startsTwo important components of flow stateHandling the reality of distractions and mental blocksand How to return to flow state

In this episode of Just Ride, Rob Warner and Eliot Jackson sit down with Christopher Blevins to reflect on a historic season that saw him become the first American in 34 years to win the UCI Cross-country Overall World Cup title. Christopher shares how years of patience, persistence, and trusting the process finally came together at the highest level.The conversation explores Christopher's BMX roots, the mindset that helped him reach the top of cross-country racing, and why meditation, staying present, and focusing on the process matter more than chasing results. They also dive into bike setup, racing psychology, the future of XC, and why mountain biking needs more personality and storytelling.Christopher also discusses the growth of cross-country racing in the United States, his creative project Still Spoke, his ambitions heading toward the Olympics, and what excites him most about the future of mountain biking.

The band Phish has toured for over 40 years. One of the draws of their legendary live shows—which can go on for 8 hours—is finding moments of “flow,” when the band members lock into an improvised jam, finding new musical ideas in real time. Phish fans live for these transcendent moments, but so do the musicians—to the point that Mike Gordon, the band's bass player, is funding scientific research to better understand flow state. In November 2025, Host Flora Lichtman sat down with Mike and his research collaborator, neuroscientist Greg Appelbaum, to unpack their research so far and how it's helping to inform other neuroscience. Guests: Mike Gordon is bassist and co-founder of the seminal improvisational rock band Phish.  Dr. Greg Appelbaum is a professor in the department of psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego.  A transcript for this episode is available at sciencefriday.com.

There's a reservoir of untapped potential inside you right now. The only question is whether you'll reach it. Colin O'Brady is the first person in history to cross Antarctica solo, completely unsupported and unaided, covering nearly 1,000 miles alone in 54 days while pulling a 375-pound sled through temperatures reaching minus 80 degrees wind chill. He's also a world record holder for the Explorers Grand Slam, having completed all Seven Summits and expeditions to both poles in 139 consecutive days -- a project he called The Impossible First. Before any of that, he was a 22-year-old backpacker in Thailand with 25% of his body severely burned, told by doctors he might never walk normally again. What pulled him through was a single visualization exercise, a mother who refused to let him see his own darkness, and a goal set from a hospital bed he had no business believing in. What you'll hear in this conversation is how he trained his mind more than his body, how flow states carried him through 32 consecutive hours on the final push across Antarctica, and what a four-word mantra repeated every morning for 54 days can actually do to a human being.

Ever have one of those workouts where everything just clicks? Your technique feels solid, your reps are smooth, and time seems to disappear. That's called a flow state, and it can make your training more effective and a lot more enjoyable.The secret isn't chasing new exercises or constantly changing programs. It's building familiarity with your training while continuing to challenge yourself just enough to grow. When you're comfortable with your routine, you can focus your energy on improving performance instead of figuring out what to do next.Before each workout, ask yourself: “How can I level things up just a little today?” Maybe it's an extra rep, better range of motion, or cleaner technique. Small improvements create the challenge needed for progress while keeping you in the zone.Stop chasing novelty and start building depth. Master the basics, challenge yourself consistently, and you'll unlock more motivation, better workouts, and greater results over time.

When we talk about mythic fiction, it's easy to assume mythic stories are created through familiar ingredients: archetypes, symbolism, old myths, epic structure. But I don't think that's where mythic storytelling begins. In this post/podcast, I explore seven practices and mindsets that help writers reconnect with what the lost art of mythmaking--not just  borrowing of old symbolic forms, but accessing the deeper creative process from which meaningful stories emerge in the first place. We talk about: • Why mythic stories often feel like they come *through* us rather than *from* us • How dreamzoning and flow states support deeper storytelling • Why "shoulds" can block archetypal imagination • How asking questions opens access to mythic resonance • The deeper shape beneath story structure • Why confronting the shadows matters for writers • How mythic storytelling functions as transformation and initiation Mythic fiction isn't just a genre or an aesthetic. At its deepest level, it is a way of relating to story itself. If you've ever wanted to write stories that feel more alive, more resonant, or more meaningful, but weren't sure how to move beyond technique alone, this conversation offers a practical place to begin. 01:50 What Is Mythic Fiction? 02:34 What Mythic Fiction Is Not 04:07 What Mythic Fiction Is 05:12 The Lost Art of Mythmaking 06:31 Practice #1: Entering the Flow State 08:49 Practice #2: Clear the "Shoulds" That Block Archetypal Imagination 09:58 Practice #3: Ask Questions Instead of Arriving With Answers 11:32 Practice #4: Study the Deeper Shape Beneath Story Structure 12:56 Practice #5: Study the Stories That Create Mythic Resonance 15:07 Practice #6: Be Fearless Enough to Enter the Shadows 17:11 Practice #7: Approach Archetypal Storytelling With Humility and Responsibility 18:16 Learning How to Imagine Better 19:22 Writing Masterclass: Alchemizing Plot, Character, and Theme Read the transcript: https://helpingwritersbecomeauthors.com/how-to-write-mythic-fiction-practices LINKS & RESOURCES Want More? WRITING MASTERCLASS: Alchemizing Plot, Character, & Theme Sign Up Here: https://kmweilandstore.com/b/plot-character-theme-class In this masterclass, I explore how plot, character, and theme act as one cohesive symbolic structure capable of creating stories with emotional resonance, narrative momentum, and deeper thematic meaning. We'll talk about: • Aligning inner and outer arcs  • Creating stories that feel alive from the inside out  • Integrating plot, character, and theme organically  • Writing stories with greater depth and cohesion
