thanks! 
Yeah that may be the case.
This 2nd time around (I think I lasted about ~2h) , It actually turned into pleasure after enduring some body pain from sitting still and not moving. Buuut, I know pleasure too is a hindrance, so remembering that, I pulled my attention back to equanimity and burning…
And even now, I’m feeling soooo goood, but, I am not going to induldge my attention in it and maintain my equanimity, which makes the absorption in the object of meditation easier.
