If you are new to the idea of Flow Game, please watch the video below to know more about the game and its purpose.
Flow Lab is a monthly series of Flow Games hosted by a global team of Flow Game Hosts spanning across 5 continents. An idea initiated by Amanda Zamparo (São Paulo), this initiative adds a global flavour to the monthly Flow Games we are hosting. Personally, it has been an incredibly fulfilling collective enquiry into questions that matter to a wide cross-section of people from around the world in this moment in time.
In April, we had Round 2 of the Flow Lab. I co-hosted the Flow Game with Arvind, and we were joined by 9 players from different walks of life, each carrying a burning question that mattered to them.
Questions that flowed into the space for collective enquiry in this edition of the game had a theme of life transitions. Each player channelled one aspect of the collective inquiry.
Questions
What is my role in creating balance in life?
How do I lead for myself and garner support?
What does balance mean between the essential and the sustainable?
What does an anchor mean for me in times of chaos?
To what extent could my work represent my values while being cognizant to personal life?
What does sustainable devotion look like for me?
What is stopping me from creating things I love professionally?
What kind of structure would support my workspace?
Key Insights
The need to attract “stillness” and build relationships beyond transactional professionalism. How can we bring more parts of ourselves into the relationship to build a community for ourselves?
Becoming aware of the tension between personal purpose and family expectations in the context of financial stability. What is the new lens or frame from which I can look at the idea of “wealth”? What would it look like beyond wealth as merely money?
The need to shift from passively waiting for things to change to an active, playful engagement, focusing on kindness to self and family.
A shift of focus from future worries to present needs, specifically prioritising relationships as the current anchor.
A re-evaluation of the “leader vs follower” dynamic, suggesting core values should be a non-negotiable “lighthouse” regardless of one’s role in the system.
What are our existing sources of support, including teachers and ancestors? What is the dynamic between being a student and a teacher?
Revelation of a lack of self-belief as the primary internal block, not an external fear.
A shift from solving for current restrictions to first envisioning an inspiring possibility (e.g., a team) to inform a supportive structure.
