That's another good way of putting it. It is a good feeling and I never lose my sense of place , but the feeling is so real it plays with my sense of what actually is reality.
I have recently been experimenting with "willing" my self to an earlier place and time and have had some limited success. It is not as vivid or deep as when it just "pops' into my head, but it does seem to be somewhat attainable. Still wonder what it actually is.
