Such things seem like the same discipline needs to be applied except instead of practicing the music, you practice thinking about the music.
Specifically, thinking after the fact. If you play a chord, what do you remember about the angle the pick strikes the strings. Play it again, what do you notice afterwards. etc.
I have a strong hunch that its as much about developing the introspective ability/bridge to the skill as it is about bridging the write/edit flow gap (ie in writing its said to be better to write without reading, then edit in a separate session).
Yes, that's conscious practice. I do that a lot. Conscious practice to repetition to unconscious playing. Physical technique can be carefully studied in practice, in order to not think about it at all during performance - you already know what you're doing, and why you're doing it. The mind can focus instead on the ideas and feelings you are trying to express.
