Hey, it's Marielle Segarra.
You're listening to Life Kit.
We have a treat for you today.
NPR health and science correspondent Alison Aubrey has a new show called Your Turn.
It's here to help people navigate midlife and to figure out what's next for them.
So today you're going to hear an episode about flow, that state of euphoric, effortless immersion in a challenging task,
and how a flow state can help you find purpose and momentum in your life.
Here's Allison.
I think if you have ever felt stuck in life, like you've been doing the same thing for so long.
Diane Allen's story is really going to resonate.
She played violin for the Central Organ Symphony Orchestra for about 15 years.
She was what they call the concert master.
You know, so many people don't even know what that word means.
So the concert master is the lead violinist, second in command to the conductor.
And if you think about how an orchestra is set up, think of dominoes, because I'm right up front with the conductor.
And however well or not well I was doing that day, that would have a ripple effect throughout the orchestra.
So if I'm having a great day, that's going to ripple out throughout the orchestra.
