Heheh.
Resolve to attempt some metta-type meditation. Get told to try something else first. Try that something else - end up in bliss state

Recommendation I got from was to alternate between broad and deep attention in sitting meditation. So I did the following:
1
1
Sat on a yoga ball & bounced, listening to songs with strong bass or percussion, putting attention firmly and squarely on that.
1
1
Dissipative, take-in-everything moments between songs, then back to intense focus.
Only took 10 minutes to enter trance. By 30, ecstatic.
I suspect the bouncing yoga ball part helped. I have postural problems that make me shift around a lot while sitting. Distracting.

I've meditated daily in periods, ranging from 5 minutes a day to 3 or 4 hours a day. After 40 or so minutes, feels like I spent 2 hours.
