What is something that you’ve found you can do to reliably slip into a flow state? In particular, a flow state *of work*. Two examples could be drinking a morning coffee or packing a zyn but I am much more interested in answers that do not involve substances. A good one for me is turning on a 60 min pomodoro time

Evening with no obligations, already have my workout out of the way and I can just be with my laptop on the couch (I feel like I can do emails/calls at my desk but can only do deep work on my couch/other random areas)

Non-substance tips for finding flow 1. Wake up early enough to be sleep deprived but not have a sleep deficit (e.g. you slept well the days before) 2. Have a foreign language class where you’re talking in the other language 1:1. 3. Drink lots of water and hold your pee / don’t eat until ~1-3 pm 4. *Like what you

I don't think I can reliable slip into a flow state. The closest I can get to it is to code a hard-but-not-impossible problem, where I have a relatively clear idea of what to do but just need to translate thoughts into code.

Coffee is a ritual for me but does not get me into work flow, it is just a preparation for the day and I really need that hot beverage in the morning (sometimes it’s tea, others just water and lemon). There’s 2 things: no meetings and a playlist (either lo-fi or orchestra, no lyrics)
