Flow; is the mental state in which an activity is carried out where the attention is complete, to be immersed and absolutely focused on the action. The consciousness of existence dissipates and the sense of time is lost, giving way to the perception of total integration with the environment where actions can be anticipated in a kind of total control of what happens. It is a sensation well known by athletes, artists, artisans, or any other activity that complexity requires a previous level of training and high skills, more than 10,000 hours. Specialists attribute this experience to a high degree of specialization, where the neuronal activity is so harmonious and elevated, that any kind of distraction does not take place; even basic functions like sleeping in the sensory zone. Despite being named by the psychologist Mihály Csíkszentmihályi in the 70's; the concept of ‘to be on flow’ has existed for miles of years under other forms, notably in some Eastern religions.

They have very small flowers gathered together in a compound head. Each one is individually called floret. Once the flowering is finished, the bulb dries for a couple of days; the petals and stamens fall, the bracts curl backwards and the ball of the parachute opens into a full sphere waiting for a breeze with sufficient force to make the dispersion

In folk medicine it is used in recipes and compositions with properties: hepatic, antirheumatic, spasmolytic and diuretic. Also said to be anaflogistic and antidiscratic for the human population; although I have not been able to ascertain what properties these are, nor what are the ailments that lessen or cure the substances that possess such characteristics. Dandelions are also important plants for bees, providing a substantial source of nectar and pollen early in the season
