Flow theory is how we throttle intensity of play and how we adjust and maintain a proper emotional and physiological state. Place your dog on this map and that’s his Subjective Tone (classical condition).

With Play+ we work classical and operant at the same time and we do so with purpose and ease using Mental Flow to move the dog down and to the right, or Physical Flow to move up and to the Left.
