Yes, it is a thing. I have experienced it myself while doing physical exercise (MMA, snowboarding), intellectual (studying, working) and mixed (shooting, paintball) and also driving through cornery roads. Check Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's work. He's a professor at the University of Chicago and an expert on this field.

I believe in it but I don't think it's what everyone hypes it up to be. Personally I think it's just being so in the moment that for once in your life you're able to concentrate 100% and be completely aware. Sparring boxing/Muay Thai and snowboarding down mountains does it for me.

Read the book “stealing fire”. It’s entirely about this subject.

Long workouts do this to me.

I spin poi and make music, it’s a thing, you just start doing stuff without thinking and shit works out super well in the context

I do believe in it and I experienced it myself.
