Starting to Sink In

The meditation is starting to sink in.  It seems that the practice for me is easier at night, I can get a deeper level of calm than I can in the morning.  This might be because I'm a morning person - I'm always ready to go every morning, thinking about lots of things, planning the day etc.  I've noticed some of the effects in my meditation that I've read about in other books.  There comes a point roughly 5-7 minutes in for me, that my whole body seems to go limp, things really calm and a sense of heaviness overcomes me.  This is very relaxing and it's still very easy to stay alert in this state.  Last night, my daughter asked where I was (physically - she was calling my name) and I replied while in this state.  It felt like I was another person answering - I was very detached from the speaking voice.
This morning I feel very calm - much like I used to feel as a small child when someone would hold me.  At peace. 

I like this meditation stuff!
