idk anything about mindfulness but if it was possible to feel any pleasant feeling at all times I think it would call into question a lot of what we know about neurology

I don't think it would result in it being boring forever though, there'd probably just be a "cooldown" after a while. I'm talking out of my ass though and maybe you can just feel good literally all the time like that

it was like.. when you get excited about something or you're super happy about something and you just capture that feeling... i was able to just make myself feel that whenever i wanted if i had to compare it to something i'd say it was like the feeling of a come-up on ecstacy but instead of it lasting hours, it would just be for a few seconds or so, but the residual effects were a complete mood/happiness improver that lasted i never tested to see how long i could hold the feeling, it was more like a pick-me-up that would just improve my mood and make things better

but like i said, i only did it sparingly because i was afraid there might be consequences if i overdid it or something.. not sure why but that's just how i felt about it
