When You First Practicing Mindfulness Is It Hard?

When you first started mindfulness practice was it hard and the where this question comes from is I remember once my wife and I went to just a day-long meditation retreat on parenting. The overarching emotion that we experienced was stress yeah and restlessness so I'm curious if you if when you first started practicing mindfulness like what was was an unlock that happened pretty quickly or was it more just training you to be okay not needing the target up ahead the road all the time? "I still find it very difficult" he says.
