That’s some epic level metacognition! (the “stack trace”). Mine tends to be more “fluid” and less “technical”, just something like “supercharged intution”.
I’m going to say, for those readers who find the concepts used in this post to sound woo-ey: these are conceptual handles for real physical and biological processes. You could use different conceptual handles, including purely mathematical/logical ones, if they existed: what matters is to prime you cognition with a pattern that is isomorphic to the biological/neural/informational pattern you are trying to identify and interact with.
Yes, the realms can be thought of as clusters in the space of state-transition probabilities. Once you are in a realm, you are much more likely to move to another state within that realm rather than some other state outside it.

For intuition, here’s a picture of a state-transition probability map for emotions: https://i.redd.it/7irpdyupbbfy.png
