Synopsis
Ackerman defines "deep play" as an activity that can transport a person into an altered state in which they are fully absorbed and fully alive. Common to children, deep play is something adults too are capable of, says Ackerman, and she finds it not only in such experiences as scuba diving and mountaineering, but also in creating art and exploring friendship.
