In The Zone

Want to know how to get, “in the zone,” that place athletes talk about where everything seems to be going exactly right?

Psychologists call this experience of peak performance --“flow” … and say it can be achieved while engaged in most any activity.

A Virginia researcher has been studying the phenomenon for years, and she’s agreed to share her discoveries.

Guest:
Jane B. “Brodie” Gregory, PhD- Specialist in the psychology of motivation.  Former Manager of Leadership Development for Proctor & Gamble.  Visiting Faculty, Washington and Lee University Department of Psychology.

Tom Graham was Senior Producer and host of WMRA's Virginia Insight from 2006 to 2015.
