How does the brain “zone out” and we ignore everything around us and think about absolutely nothing?
In: 113
There’s a concept of system 1 and system 2, system 1 is your intuition, instincts your unconscious thinking. System 2 is your rational thoughts, you’re higher thinking.
Zoning out is basically turning system 2 off.
There is a fantastic book ” Thinking Fast and Slow” by Daniel Kahneman that does a great job explaining this. Highly recommended for anybody, probably the second most life-changing book Ive read
