Co-founder of the Flow Genome Project and author of Stealing Fire and Recapture the Rapture, Jamie Wheal maps the neuroscience of flow states, peak performance, and ecstatic experience. He argues that altered states and collective ritual share common brain signatures that can be deliberately cultivated, and advises organizations from Navy SEALs to Fortune 500 companies on harnessing these states for meaning and performance.
