1
A tennis player wins her second straight set,
2
feeling like she can predict her opponent's next move.
3
A musician works to master a chord progression unfazed by mistakes as he repeatedly plays the same four bars.
4
A scientist fails to notice her morning alarm blare from the next room,
5
having analyzed data through the night.
6
While each of these people is immersed in a different activity,
7
requiring specific skills and knowledge sets,
8
all three are experiencing what is known as flow,
9
a unique mental state of effortless engagement.
10
And while you may not be a scientist or professional athlete,
11
anyone can find flow.
12
This is a good thing,
13
as those who more frequently experience flow report higher levels of positive emotions,
14
creativity, and feelings of accomplishment.
15
Further, research has linked it to increased productivity,
16
enhanced learning, and academic achievement.
17
But what exactly is flow?
18
And how can we find it in our daily lives?
19
Flow is more than just concentrating or paying attention.
20
Psychologists go so far as to define flow as an altered state of consciousness with several defining features.
21
First, those in flow tend to feel so effortlessly engaged in a task that time seems to fly by.
22
They are not easily distracted.
23
In contrast with cycles of procrastination,
24
when it can feel impossible to start an activity,
25
during flow, it can feel difficult to stop.
26
Flow also tends to diminish feelings of worry or self-judgment,
27
in turn fostering creativity.
28
And people report experiencing a sense of oneness with what they're doing,
29
allowing for peak performance.
30
Further, brain imaging studies have shown that flow is accompanied by changes in neural activity,
31
notably in regions that play a role in attention, self-awareness, and self-consciousness.
32
Despite decades of research, many questions still remain.
33
How do the brains of those in flow compare to those in other states of consciousness, like meditation?
34
Does flow arising from physical activities like sports recruit the same brain areas as more mental tasks like writing or math?
35
And scientists are still working to understand why certain activities are more likely to elicit flow than others.
36
While we don't know for sure, there are several theories.
37
For example, people more often report finding flow when doing things they find intrinsically motivating,
38
meaning activities they find purpose, meaning, or enjoyment in.
39
This may include participating in a favorite hobby,
40
but also tackling gratifying assignments at work,
41
studying topics you find interesting,
42
or even completing satisfying chores.
43
Likewise, it may be more difficult to find flow in tasks you do only because you have to,
44
not because you want to.
45
Other research suggests balancing personal skill level with the activity's challenge is key for finding flow.
46
In other words, if a task is too easy,
47
you may get distracted or feel bored.
48
If it's too challenging, you may become discouraged.
49
The classically mesmerizing game of Tetris,
50
for example, keeps skill challenge levels in balance by increasing the fall speed of blocks as players get better at the game.
51
Still, other studies suggest that it's most important that activities have clear goals
52
and allow you to assess your progress along the way.
53
For example, practicing a song allows you to gauge your performance with each note.
54
This also may be why people find flow when playing games of chance,
55
even though those games don't require skill.
56
Moment-to-moment feedback may be enough to motivate deep engagement.
57
While no single protocol can guarantee flow,
58
there are steps you can take to increase your chances.
59
Find a quiet environment, free from distracting noises or devices.
60
Break your tasks into small,
61
specific segments that are easy to track and learn from.
62
Set clear end goals that are challenging, but not frustratingly so.
63
If you find the task to be tedious,
64
set additional parameters to up the stakes.
65
For example, when cleaning your dishes,
66
attempt to finish them all in a certain amount of time.
67
When running, try to keep pace with the beat of a song.
68
Most importantly, and perhaps most frustratingly,
69
don't focus too much on reaching flow.
70
That sort of distraction might just prevent you from finding it.

关于本课
本课程将带您深入探讨“心流状态”(flow state)这一迷人的心理现象。通过观看此视频,您将学习到心流的定义、其对积极情绪、创造力、生产力和学习的积极影响,以及如何在日常生活中创造条件体验心流。本视频内容丰富,语速适中,对于希望提升英语口语练习和理解复杂概念能力的学习者来说,是绝佳的学习材料。您将有机会接触到心理学领域的专业词汇,并练习理解和复述抽象主题。
重要词汇和短语
- flow state (心流状态): 一种专注于某项任务,感到愉悦和投入,时间感消失的心理状态。
- effortless engagement (不费力的投入): 指在做某事时感到自然而然、毫不费力地全神贯注。
- altered state of consciousness (意识的改变状态): 一种与普通清醒状态不同的心理或感知状态。
- intrinsically motivating (内在驱动的): 指某项活动本身就能带来乐趣、意义或目标感,而非为了外部奖励。
- balance personal skill level with the activity’s challenge (平衡个人技能水平与活动难度): 这是进入心流的关键,任务不能太简单,也不能太难。
- gauge your performance (评估你的表现): 衡量或判断你在某项任务中的进展或完成情况。
- up the stakes (增加难度/风险): 通过增加挑战或重要性来使某项任务更有趣或更具吸引力。
- moment-to-moment feedback (即时反馈): 持续不断地接收关于你表现的即时信息。
本视频练习技巧
本视频是提升英语流利度和听力理解的优质资源,特别是对于准备雅思口语考试(尤其是Part 3)或希望用英语讨论抽象概念的学习者。
- 语速与口音:视频语速适中偏快,发音清晰,是练习标准美式发音的绝佳材料。建议初学者可以尝试放慢语速进行跟读技巧练习,进阶者则可尝试原速模仿,以提高反应速度和口语的自然度。
- 话题难度:内容偏学术和抽象,涵盖心理学和神经科学,有助于拓展您的词汇量和表达复杂思想的能力。建议您在跟读前先完整听一遍,理解大意,再分段精听和模仿。
- 跟读技巧:
- 模仿语音语调:特别注意模仿视频中对长句的断句、重音和语调变化。这对于提升您的发音练习和整体口语表达的自然度至关重要。
- 关注逻辑连接词:视频中使用了大量的连接词,如“Further”、“Likewise”、“For example”等,它们是理解复杂论证结构的关键。在跟读时,注意它们的发音和在句中的停顿,有助于您自己构建连贯的口语表达。
- 主题词汇积累:重点标记和记忆视频中关于“心流”概念的核心词汇和短语。尝试用自己的话复述视频内容,并将其应用于日常的英语口语练习中,加深理解和记忆。
- 应用“心流”概念到学习中:借鉴视频中提到的方法,为您的英语学习创造“心流”环境。例如,找到一个安静无干扰的地方进行英语口语练习,将复杂的跟读任务分解为小目标(如先模仿单个句子,再尝试段落),并设定明确的挑战目标(如提高模仿的准确率或速度),这能有效提高您的学习效率和专注度。
什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
