I do not know exactly why or how, but tilting my head in different directions really helps me see, hear, and asses things & situations much better.
Overtime, I noticed that my brain sometimes ignores certain things by default, but tilting my head around resets my brain into noticing them.
For example, my brain often ignores bikes, motorcycles, and pedestrians on the side walk because my brain is always hyper focused on not crashing into the car in front of me or behind me-- but driving with my head cocked in different angles prevents my brain from ignoring them.
I have yet to cause an auto accident in over 20 years of driving because I drive with my head on a swivel like I got a fucking lidar system or something I gotta point in all directions.
I also can hear different pitches and background instruments in music a lot better if I'm swiveling my head around in different angles or if I close my eyes.
When we go to classical music concerts, my boyfriend often tells me I look like those artic foxes hunting for mice under the snow-- like I'm trying to triangulate whatever I'm hearing.
I cannot tell you how or why it works, only that it does for me.
