At BodyandMindFlow you will find information related to finding flow through integrating mind with body in your pursuits. Dr Sue Jackson has been extensively researching the optimal psychological state known as 'flow'—a concept developed by psychology researcher, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi—since completing graduate degrees in sport and exercise science/sport psychology in the early 1990's. Drawing on the experiences of elite athletes and weekend warriors, Sue has described and assessed the flow experience in various performance domains. With co-author, Csikszentmihalyi, Sue has written Flow in Sports, where keys to experiencing flow in sport are identified.
There are many paths to flow, with sport or physical activity being one that is accessible to most people. A particular form of physical activity—hatha yoga—is well suited to facilitating flow experiences. Finding this link through her own participation, as well as her research into yoga, Dr Jackson trained as a yoga instructor in order to share with others this path to optimising awareness and experience. Dr Jackson holds a diploma in yoga teaching with the International Yoga Teacher's Association (IYTA), and is a full member of the IYTA and the Yoga Teacher's Association of Australia (YTAA).
At BodyandMindFlow you will find information and resources on Flow, and Assessment of Flow, as well as information on Freelance Writing and Editing, Performance Psychology Consulting, and Yoga Classes run by Dr Jackson.
