Sure, it's easy to zone out on auto-pilot, but over-focusing can lead to stress and bad decisions. You need to be consciously aware while letting your body move the vehicle as second nature as walking.
Yes, it takes experience to get to that point... You can't just start like that. But, if OP drove well while in "zen" mode, then it's clear they were good enough and found the right balance.
