In 2001, a french musician by the name of Corinne Sombrun was send to Mongalia by the BBC to record sounds for a documentary. To do so she attended a shamanic ceremony so she could record and immediately got into a trance. The shaman told her she was a shaman and herself she had to learn the "craft". She went back to France confused and wanting to know more about what happened to her. She contacted scientists to be studied. One accepted and did exams on her... and immediately advised her to stop to get into trances because her brains looked like a schizophrenic brains.. yes !
She did not. Instead she learned the craft with the Mongolian shaman and spent the last 20 years studying this with scientists.
I'm sparing you the details: she wrote books and there are a lot of conferences on YouTube.. But after 20 years, she devised a way for everyone to get into a shamanic trance (now called "cognitive trance" because it's separated from the shamanic culture) with the help of (wait for it...) sound loops !
The effects of and many uses of trance are still being studied, but it's already proven that it's a capacity of the human brain. They are teaching cognitive trance to psycho-therapists and you can even learn it at the Paris university.
The vision you describe in the article are trances. The description of what it's like to be into a trance that you'll hear about in the videos on YT totally match what you say in the article.
Amazon’s animated series "Undone" by Raphael Bob-Waksberg and Kate Purdy explores that connection in a very creative way, and is inspired by Purdy's personal experience with mental illness and spiritual practices.

I will check this out: Thanks !
brilliant series and rings true to my own experiences
I found a conference in English by Corinne at Google: https://youtu.be/Syy4MTHAfF4
The institute that was created for the researches is a good place to start too: https://trancescience.org/
