Could be this is just me, but me-ness mostly seems to reside in discreet muscular tension that you unconsciously keep your attention on.
If you let go of the focus on that particular sensation, attention widens of its own accord. But it's a habit, and usually returns quickly.

E.g. for me, I mostly seem to have some sort of unconscious attachment to a habitual "me" located in the area around my eyes.
If I let go of that tension (e.g. if I let my eyes glaze over slightly), it is no longer present.

This feels a bit like taking a slight jaunt backwards in space, except nothing is moving.
It rather seems that when you don't have a forward-facing frame of reference, there is more proprioceptive awareness of everything behind your eyes (e.g. sensations in the back).
