It's funny how that "altered state" starts feeling "normal" and we keep looking for it not realising we already have it. And in our search we create barriers to what we already have the knowledge and skills to access easily.

In other words. If you play the dictionary game now it's a good likelihood that you miss the "altered state" feeling. That doesn't mean you've done it wrong. It means the feeling has become like a comfortable pair of shoes. Just normal.
