I had this same moment in the last week, when i asked “how am I experiencing…” and started some habitual “investigative” type thought. I stopped and went, “that is what i have always done, and i am not radically changing!”
So I started sing to myself a playful ditti about having a PCE and what i am looking at, with all sorts of non-rhyming pairings and questionable pitch correctness.
Quite effective at brining a smile and some sensuousness to the following moments!
