Moving is living and living requires movement, flow—this is also what my university’s motto alludes to. As Tania Zittoun and Alex Gillespie (this volume; henceforth Z&G) argue in their chapter, moving is experiencing and experiencing requires movement. But as Z&G highlight throughout their contribution, living is not exclusively about body and mind curiously moving around and experiencing the world, as the university motto insinuates. It is also about integrating and—as I understand them—temporarily fixating the flow of experience. Z&G conceive of integration of the manifold experiences into a seemingly consistent whole as being just as existentially significant for human living as the process of experiencing itself.
