Yes, its a "letting go". It happens if we "let" it.
We can "make" the mind concentrate, but we must "let" it be mindful.
If we "make" Aikido work, we use force and muscle and its not Aikido (its wrestling). We must "let" ourselves connect and move, "letting" the technique work.
Compliments and appreciation.
