Flow state represents to me psychology, catching up to ancient philosophy and then providing some very useful methods and models and methodologies for us to understand it and explore it.
Ever wondered what it takes to leave behind a life of corporate success for one of mindful living? In this episode of the FitMind Podcast, host Liam McClintock sits down with Jiro Taylor, the Founder & CEO of the Flowstate Collective. Jiro's story is anything but ordinary. After studying Zen Buddhism in Japan and making millions in the bustling cities of London and Hong Kong, he reached a breaking point in 2008 that led him to abandon his lucrative career.
What followed was an 11-year odyssey of self-discovery through meditation, surfing, and learning from masters of presence and flow. Jiro opens up about his journey from financial success and drug abuse to a profound personal transformation. He discusses the power of self-inquiry and living in flow, offering insights into how breaking free from societal norms can lead to a more fulfilling life.
This episode dives deep into the shift from a life focused on doing to one centered on being, exploring themes like self-knowledge, meditation, and the benefits of a committed inner practice. If you've ever felt trapped by cultural expectations or wondered if there's more to life than chasing external success, Jiro's story will resonate with you. His experiences highlight the convergence of ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience, showing how inner practices can lead to optimal consciousness.
Tune in for an engaging conversation that challenges conventional thinking and inspires a journey toward mindful living.
