Cart is empty Flow Theory is common within Art Therapy. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi first described it in his book The Psychology of Optimal Experience as “a perfect immersive state of balance between skill and challenges”.
Psychological Flow captures the positive mental state of being completely absorbed, focused and involved in your activities at a certain point in time, as well as deriving enjoyment from being engaged in that activity.
Optimal Flow is the combination of the participants having the right level of challenge for their skill sets, where the skill is neither too tough nor too easy as to be boring, and having unambiguous short-term goals to receive instant feedback on the progress.
“Participants describe being ‘in Flow’ as a highly pleasurable experience. They enjoyed being in control of the task, related largely to the ongoing feedback they received. Ultimately, they found whatever they were doing to be highly self-rewarding.”
