My default sensory reality has gained a lot of spacial fidelity in the past few months.
These spatial intuitions are pretty fundamental to all kinds of insight meditation-ish work, if you employ it that way.

And it really does change sense of self.
E.g. to operate effectively as a person, I always need to put a lot of conscious weight on feelings and/or thoughts.
Anything else and 'Sindre' ends up more as an abstract entity in awareness, qualitatively unremarkable.

This isn't just an academic distinction, either. 'Sindre' struggles to act coherently without deep embodiment.
Whereas personal feelings and thoughts also become a lot less salient, and can be mostly ignored.
(Decisions seem guided more by impulse and situational reactivity.)
