the PlayFlowState

-a state of mind obtained from an extended self-imposed PlayTime of focused, relaxed, unAdulterated free form Play. This state, activating our inner-child, will enlighten the Playfilled brain releasing Joy and warm fuzzies. Highly contagious, this state is contraindicated for humans who wish to feel that life is meaningless or those who prefer boredom and depression over being motivated and ineffably ebullient.


There is a state that the brain enters when it is sufficiently challenged for an extended period of time. After about 10 minutes, the brain will shut down part of the brain in what is called, Transient Hypofrontality. In this state, time becomes irrelevant, we lose sense of the self and we enter a transient state that releases an intoxicating mixture of “feel good” chemicals into the brain. When we get into the Flow state, life is but a dream… our creation.

THIS IS GREAT!

The PlayFlowState is taking the activity time and focusing it on pure Play.

To get into this state, we need to take away the negative competition that is associated with most of our sports. If the end goal is to beat someone, the pure innocent childlike mind will not feel safe.

Children Play for the pure enjoyment of the process, nobody is meant to lose. Everybody wins when the game lasts as long as possible.

Play like your life depends on it… it literally does!!!

The correlation between Play time and Happy Healthy Humans cannot be understated. The fountain of youth is found via our inner-child who is skipping down the Path of Play joyfully awaiting an invitation to express themselves.

Give it to them, gift it to yourself!!!

We can remember how to awaken ourselves and stay in a PlayFlowState!

If every adult in the world remembered how to Play, we would eliminate violence from the world… NOW!
