Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I am in a flow state?

You are likely in a flow state when your sense of self-consciousness disappears, your perception of time distorts, and your focus becomes so intense that you are unaware of external distractions.

Why is repetition quality important for flow?

High-quality repetition requires constant micro-adjustments and deep focus, which prevents the mind from wandering and keeps you anchored in the present moment.
