Excellent clip Colin, thanks! There’s some sounds neuroscience behind this too, that non-thinking time (or relaxation time), shuts down the ‘energy hungry’ PFC allowing the brain to recharge, plus helps produce the right brain chemicals needed for insights to take place. A quieter PFC also allows the more subtle signals of the brain (which stores most of the data – knowledge/wisdom) to be heard. Thanks again!
