Transient Hypofrontality The biological pathway to FLOW. Transient = temporary Hypo = Slower ( as opposed to hyper – more/faster ) Frontality = Prefrontal cortex – portion of the brain Literally means - a temporary slowing down of the prefrontal cortex , the executive seat of our brain. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) makes humans human. While our base instincts may rave and rant , want to punch the noisy neighbour or the bloke that reversed into your new car , the common-sense PFC mediator convinces us with logic and sense that we shouldn’t.  When the PFC slows down we greatly reduce reasoning , second guessing , weighing options , deciding , planning …. and the present moment takes on a different hue. One of radiance and timelessness. We lose ourselves in what we do , and to me , that is one of the greatest daily experiences.
