There is no realization or insight.

The body simply operates from a slightly different level than before.

This shift happens without effort, explanation, or approval.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I feel "different" but also "quieter" than before?

You have experienced a Baseline Shift. Your system has integrated enough data that your "default setting" has moved. In this framework, we recognize this shift as a "new ground." You aren't "high" on progress; you are "deep" in stability. Naming this shift helps you realize you don't need to "go back" to how you felt before; this new, quieter baseline is your Recovered Meaning in its permanent form.

How do I keep this new baseline?

You don't have to "keep" it; it "Holds You." A baseline shift is a structural change in your nervous system. In the Meaning Density Model™, once a baseline has shifted, the old "noise" no longer fits the new architecture. By not "testing" or "monitoring" the shift, you allow the system to habituate to this higher state of coherence as its "new normal."
