Imagine yourself climbing a great mountain. High above the ground, you cleave to the rocks. You move very deliberately, aware of every placement of your foot, the angles of your body, how your hand grips every protruding stone.
There is no room for error; one lapse in attention can cost you your life. You focus intensely; nothing exists but you and this mountain.
Time seems to slow down, your sense perceptions are heightened - colours are sharper and brighter and each sounds seems to ripple right through you.
Your mind shifts into a new space. A sense of vibrant aliveness, connectedness and peace infuse your being. You feel in tune with life, moving with a precision and poise you don’t fully understand but at the same time relish in. You’re in the zone. You’re in flow.
