Very interesting, especially the stuff about cortical folding, which I wasn't aware of. I found that once I realised that meditation was more a test of will than a way to relax, I could slip into it a lot more easily.

Before that I would get agitated as I waited for this famed relaxed state, that I'd heard so much about.

Now I am always up for finding more techniques to hone my meditation skills.
