It’s nearly impossible for me to have a well intimate well flowing Bachata or Salsa dance when I’m in analytical mode. It’s not compatible.
I’ve -noticed- that my brain has modes, … but have been completely unsuccessful in finding any kind of internal levers to shift modes.
I can switch modes relatively easy now. But it took a long time of experience. But it came with the ability to enter the modes at all. My dominant ‘modes’ were neutral and flow and a fair bit of happyness. As a teen there was no need to switch between these or other modes. Of course I preferred it that way. I avoided situations that could make me angry and/or worked to prevent them. Real life had some challenges in the end—but with the conscious experience of these undesirable states came the ability to consciously switch (more or less).
An example: Recently I made a night life club tour for the first time. It was interesting and enjoyable and I switched a lot between enjoying the fun and observant flow. The flow was not exactly ‘analytical’ but close. .
