I have adhd, and flow comes naturally for somethings but it's rare. Usually I will get it in intellectual or creative endeavors.

It is great when I am learning a new bit of mathematics, or when I am programming. But the absolute worst thing about it is that the smallest piece of distraction will completely derail me. Medication helps a lot in this aspect, but it's unavailable where I live right now.

I used to meditate to help but for some reason I stopped.

One of the best parts about "flow" is recognizing when it's happening and then being able to keep it going.
