As a stress reduction coach, I get to talk to a lot of stressed out people.
\\nPeople from all walks of life.
\\nAnd one very common thing I hear from people when we start talking about mindfulness and meditation is that they crave that moment of bliss.
\\nOf course, moments of bliss are wonderful!
\\nIn fact, they\\u2019re downright... Er... Blissful.
\\nBut moments of bliss don\\u2019t last forever and pretty soon the bliss we feel wears off and the stressors of life - which didn\\u2019t go away during the moment of bliss, we simply ignored them - take over again and put us right back in survival mode.
\\nMindfulness is not about bypassing our stress with bliss.
\\nInstead, mindfulness is about learning to live life with presence, acceptance, and compassion so we can permanently rid ourselves of the chronic stress that affects so many people.
\\nSo bliss is always accessible to us in every moment!
\\nAnd all it takes is a few minutes a day.
\\nHow does that sound to you?
