Answer to Question 1

Peak experiences refer to moments of intense self-actualization, in which people have a sense of connectedness between themselves and their surroundings; there is a stronger sense of clarity in perceptions. There is also a loss of the sense of time. Feelings associated with the peak experience are often those of awe, wonder, or even ecstasy. The peak experience tends to take people outside themselves in that they are no longer thinking about themselves; rather, they are experiencing whatever is happening as fully as possible.
Although peak experiences can occur in a passive sort of way, usually they occur when one is deeply engaged in action of some kind. The person having a peak experience is typically so immersed in an activity that the activity seems to become the person.
