The first jhana ⏳
The first of the jhanas involves thought and examination and includes piti born from seclusion. I believe the it has to do with the fact that decreased default mode network activity may loosen the inhibitory mechanims in the brain, allowing unconscious material to float to the surface of our awareness.
