Action-awareness merge

The Action-awareness merge is a concept in neuroscience describing how our brain integrates the experience of performing an action with our awareness of it. Essentially, it involves combining the sensation of movement with the conscious perception of doing that movement. This merging helps us feel that we are in control and aware of our actions, not just automatically performing them. It plays a vital role in tasks like moving a cursor on a screen or playing a musical instrument, where seamless coordination between action and awareness enhances skill and perception.
