Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• My days blur into "another morning, another Tuesday" and I move through them on autopilot, never really seeing the particular light or mood of this exact day
• The good moments slip past me — a meal, my kid at this age, a season of life — and I only really feel them once they’re gone.
• A good moment is right here in front of me and I’m already half onto the next thing
• Good things are happening and I’m physically right there but mentally somewhere else entirely, running on autopilot
• The good moments slide right past me
