1. Itisness comes from itis which means being sleepy typically as a result of eating a large fatty meal.  Itisness extends this to mean a state of relaxation or idleness.

2. Itisness was read as it-is-ness and so was interpreted as meaning a meditative state of being which is ironically similar to the original meaning.

1. Sundays are my days of itisness, sitting on the couch watching talk shows.

2. I tried to find reasons why, but failed and had to settle for itisness.

idleness, relaxation, oneness, meditation, because, alert, itis, it-is-ness

(Note for PDX, there is also that place on that street that has this name.)
