Feeling stuck lately? Let's talk about languishing and how to find your flow 💬

Image description: The title slide reads "👋 Hey students, have you ever felt stuck lately? You might be experiencing "languishing." The following slide continues to read "Languishing is the feeling of not being able to fully engage with the world around us. It's not quite depression, but it's not quite flourishing either. It's a sense of stagnation and emptiness. On the third slide, "In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers found that finding flow was the factor of well-being."

"What are some ways to find our flow?"

Begin by blocking off dedicated time for focused work. Then, identify the best activity for that time. Look for an activity that has clear objectives and rules. It should require specific skills to complete. It should be challenging but achievable. You can choose almost any activity such as word games, memory exercises, photography, chess, tennis, art, and beyond.

The more you experience flow, the greater your overall life satisfaction. It increases happiness and a sense of purpose in your daily activities. Increasing the time spent in a state of "flow" - an absorbed state of meaningful challenge - can enhance overall life satisfaction.
