Living a Blissful Life

Creating bliss in your kitchen is simple with these five easy steps. Before I discovered blissful living in my life, I would sometimes find myself standing in the middle of my kitchen overwhelmed by it's disorganization. The cupboards were filled with outdated food packages, drawers were piled high with random items, and cabinets that were too high to reach were filled with dishes from years gone by. But with these 5 steps, I created bliss in the kitchen.
Balance in your daily living can lead to more joy and bliss in your life. Finding daily balance in your life can be achieved by learning about and using a wellness wheel. You might be wondering what a wellness wheel is and how knowing about it can help you live more blissfully. Several years ago, I made the conscious decision that I wanted to start focusing on what was working in my life and do more of it and the wellness wheel helped.  
Long ago, I discovered that the key to happiness lies in not taking myself too seriously. Taking myself less seriously has unlocked a world of bliss in my life. I want to share with you three techniques that I use to take myself less seriously.
A mother’s life can be full of bliss. All mothers share many of the same events in life. The difference, for some, is the attitude in which motherhood is approached. For some, the sound of a baby's cry, a toddler's whining or a teenager's grumbling is difficult and frustrating. But for others, the baby's cry is a sign they need you, the toddler's whine is a sign of growth and the teenager's grumbling is a time to teach. You can find bliss in your life as a mother by learning from each of these five stages of your child's life.
This past year I learned how to achieve bliss through the power of saying no. I never understood how to be truly at peace until I learned the power of saying the word no. This past year, I’ve learned how to say "yes" to bliss by saying "no" to the things that don’t bring me happiness. Learning the power of saying no has been a key component to my bliss and happiness.
Life viewed through a lens of love can lead to blissful living. As I reflect on some of life's journey, I remember painful times during my growing up years. I accepted a truth of myself as viewed through a lens of fear and poison. At that time, I wasn't aware my view was one from fear. I had no idea that a life viewed through the lens of love could be blissful.
I rely on my five-minute meditations to keep me calm and happy throughout the day. I don’t battle with anxiety every day, but I deal with it more often than not. These five-minute meditations are like mental stretches that prepare me to tackle the next bout of anxiety. 
My name is Arley Hoskin and I come from Kansas. It is the middle of the Midwest. We are hardworking and dutiful. Sacrifice is often viewed as a higher virtue than happiness in my neck of the woods. And I used to feel the same way.
I have learned, over time, that a positive attitude can lead to blissful living. Elation comes rushing out from deep inside my soul when I have feelings of happiness, which is much more often in my daily living than not. How is it that it comes so easily? It's naturally an extension of an attitude and having an instinctively positive attitude can bring much more joy and bliss into your daily living. 
Hello, I'm Joni Reisinger and I'm delighted to be writing the Living a Blissful Life blog. Life's journey is remarkably special yet mysteriously complex. How is it that some people seem to be living in bliss while others suffer in turmoil? Bliss can be described as joy, supreme happiness, paradise and extreme contentment. This definition can appear to be non-existent, a figment of our dreams of utopia, right? I remember a day long ago when I felt confused, sad, lost and unimportant. I often wondered what my purpose in life might be and how I might possibly make a positive impact in this overwhelmingly large world. As the path of life unfolded and I began a deeper examination of these questions, I discovered my path to bliss and gratefully continue along this road each and every day.
