Yeah! It’s a great feeling. A thing someone might have insight on: I’ll sometimes meditate for a full 45 minutes and not be able to get into this state. It seems to have to do with whether I’m on a “bad day”—if I can’t get “settled down” when I meditate in the morning, I’m very unlikely to “settle down” even if I do a few more 30 minute meditations that same day. Is there a mental motion you can do to make it easier, or does this just come with practice, or does it just sometimes never work?
