I find that reading or listening to Ekhart Tolle on CD (audio book) helps me to really tap into the "feeling" intellectually . . . then experientially it is much easier.

Also if paraliminals are powerful for you, you may consider trying to reexperience the power of being totally relaxed (as when listening to them). . . and the power of that feeling. Allow your consciousness to grow beyond your body and expand into the infinite universe.

Hope that might be helpful. . .
