AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Long before modern psychology spoke of the flow state, philosophers of ancient Greece observed a similar phenomenon.

Heraclitus maintained that everything is in constant motion. No one, he said, can step into the same river twice, because the water has already changed and even the person is no longer the same.

Centuries later, this idea would reappear in many Eastern and Western traditions: the belief that life finds its own balance not in resisting change, but in the ability to go with the flow.
In the seventies, psychologist Mihály Csíkszentmihályi gave a modern name to this experience: Flow. A mental state in which time seems to slow down, the noise of the world fades, and every action becomes natural.
It is not about controlling everything.
It is about stopping opposing, because sometimes the hardest path isn't moving forward: it's learning to let yourself be carried along.

- Originality: Each work is an original piece, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
- Condition: The work is professionally mounted on a wooden frame and is ready to hang, with no need for further interventions or processing.
- Protection: Careful packaging with professional materials to ensure maximum protection during transport.
- Shipping: Fast shipping. For shipments outside the European Union, delivery times may vary depending on local customs procedures.

Some images may show the artwork placed in illustrative settings to facilitate viewing in different contexts or with different framing solutions. The proportions are consistent with the actual dimensions of the work.
