GO WITH THE FLOW

With the Bose QuietComfort 35 II wireless headphones, you can block out distractions in order to enter into what’s called the “flow state”.

What happens when you clear away the distractions of the world? Concentration goes to the next level. You get deeper into your music, your work or whatever you want to focus on. When you’re totally absorbed in an experience or activity and forget all else, you enter what psychologists refer to as a “flow state”.

It’s most often experienced when doing an activity that challenges you just enough – if it’s too hard for your skill level, you may get stressed and if it’s too easy, you’ll feel bored. It can happen when you’re working, playing a sport, singing or painting. There are a couple of characteristics of a flow state – knowing what you want to achieve with immediate feedback if you’re making progress; losing awareness of yourself; time passing faster than expected; and a sense of control over what you’re doing.

The effect is a heightened sense of self and satisfaction as well as improved performance and productivity. It’s a feeling of happiness that you create for yourself instead of relying on external circumstances – which is why it’s so powerful. Here’s how to create the right conditions to tap into a flow state more easily.

Eliminate external distractions. The QuietComfort 35 II wireless headphones’ proprietary technology continuously monitors and measures outside noise and then cancels it with the opposite signal, allowing you to go deeper into what you’re doing.

Work during your most productive time of day. Everyone works best at a different time – set aside that period for your chosen activity or work so you’re doing it optimal conditions.

Take a nature break. Reinvigorating a stale mind with fresh air and greenery allows you to return to work ready to focus again.
