Jeannette is a marathon runner and sometimes has peak experiences and flow states during her practice runs around her beautiful town. What do peak experience and flow state mean?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: Jeannette is having a peak experience during her run when she is able to transcend herself and feel one with the world. She is likely not even aware of how many miles she has run or how much time has passed. Flow state is the smooth passage of time that occurs during the peak experience, when she is completely immersed in the activity in the present moment.
