Flow State may occur when someone is so engaged and connected to an activity that they are not bothered by time constraints or intrusive thoughts. Spending time in a state of flow can be a useful tool for developing presence of mind, regulation of emotions, and increasing cognitive performance.

Flow State Medical was founded on the intention of helping people to find their flow and enjoy life while also taking care of their health.

Lifestyle Medicine is an evidence-based approach to healthcare that focuses on the root causes of disease, such as environmental, behavioural and social factors. At Flow State Medical, we believe in using Lifestyle Medicine principles to prevent, manage, and in some cases even reverse chronic conditions.

This approach emphasizes the importance of nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management techniques, substance use reduction, and social connection in promoting optimal health and well-being. By addressing these factors, we can give you the tools to empower you to achieve better health outcomes and improve your overall quality of life.

The Human Endocannabinoid System (ECS) is responsible for maintaining balance of many critical bodily functions such as memory and cognition, mood, sleep, pain control, inflammatory and immune responses, and digestion. This system can be supported through lifestyle interventions such as nutrition, physical activity, stress management, restorative sleep, substance use reduction and social connection.

Studies have shown that CBD and THC also interact with CB1 & CB2 receptors within the ECS.
