slips into

Eases on into

Slips into describes entering something smoothly or gradually.

You slip into clothes by putting them on easily: She slipped into her robe.

You slip into a place by entering quietly or unobtrusively: He slipped into the room unnoticed.

The phrase also captures gradual transitions—someone slips into sleep, slips into a habit, or slips into depression without a distinct moment of change.
