I raise this idea because it has to do with basic cognition which before religion or spirituality there's cognition.

So I have to proofread long lists of things. I have found that rather than check line by line if I just look and run my eyes down the list it's super fast and just as accurate, but I am not then actively thinking. I know I am looking for discrepancies in the basic flow. I have learned to shut up my brain and just reflect patterns looking for something outré (love that word).

Have you experienced such an ability to flip your brain into I guess air conditioned mode for a few minutes to deal with some aspect of your environment?

To me your op sounds like awareness compared to thinking.
Spotlight vs flashlight.

We do it all the time (I think)
When we drive we aren't consciously thinking about all the stuff going on, we are really just reacting to the conditions given to us spontaneously for the most part.

If I understand you correctly I think everyone may do this at times. They might not be aware they are even doing it.
