Synopsis

Unlock greater happiness, focus, and fulfilment with the global bestselling classic from the world-renowned psychologist.

‘More relevant than ever' The Times

‘Illuminates the way to happiness’ New York Times Book Review

What really makes people glad to be alive? What are the inner experiences that make life worthwhile? And what made an experience truly enjoyable?

After decades of research, psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi found what he believes to be the answer: flow, a state of concentration so focused that it amounts to complete absorption in an activity where time disappears, focus sharpens, and we perform at our best.

In this bestselling book, Csikszentmihalyi shows you how to use ‘flow’ to transform the way you work, think, and live, showing you how to:

• Achieve flow states for deep focus, productivity, and creativity
• Find joy in work, hobbies, relationships, and everyday activities
• Overcome boredom, anxiety, and distraction
• Create a more meaningful and purposeful life

Combining ground-breaking research with practical advice, Flow is the timeless guide to finding inner peace, happiness, and order in our lives.
