In the continued search for that elusive state, happiness, people too often lose sight of the times when they actually feel or find it. Psychology professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi has studied the state of "flow," wherein individuals experience transcendant joy and satisfaction during full immersion in a moment of intense activity. Csikszentmihalyi presents a way that we can enrich our lives by purposely attaining this exalted state. With discussions on the nature of consciousness, the myriad aspects of pleasure, and the many facets of the flow experience, this volume demonstrates to the reader the possibility of fully experiencing and appreciating every moment of life. Including sections on solitude and company, flow experiences at work as well as at play, and how to get the most out of stress and even tragedy, this guide can inspire us to reach for the life of our dreams.
