About this episode
“If you do follow your bliss you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living... Follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were going to be.” ― Joseph Campbell
Each morning when we greet a new day, we each have before us a new set of endless possibilities available. None of can know exactly what lies ahead, no matter how well we “plan” our day. We may encounter a few obstacles even before we leave the house or everything in our day will unfold with seemingly little effort. Either way can be a blessing. The morning obstacles may have prevented us from being in an accident or maybe not. The challenge is to look for the blessing, opening our eyes to seeing what perhaps no one else sees. In doing so, we can begin to create a greater awareness of what if means to be alive.
We can choose to begin and end our day by looking at everything with gratitude and appreciation, in doing so we begin to cultivate a sense of being blessed from within. Deepak Chopra once said, “Bliss is not a feeling but a state of being. In the state of bliss, everything is loved.” On this week’s show Lisa and Michael explore how the practice of recognizing our blessings enables us to journey into our true natural state of bliss. Although none of us experience bliss in the same way, each of us has the capacity to experience a life filled with ecstatic joy and happiness. We will be sharing how visualizing and feeling a state of everyday bliss can be nurtured by each one of us in our own unique way, transforming one moment at a time bringing us closer to being in a state where everything is loved. The key on this beautiful journey of self-discovery towards our personal bliss is embracing our blessings and our connection to love.
