I do this all the time, although admittedly not when speaking to others... It's useful for problem-solving if one gets stuck, a little while of no thinking clears the board and allows thoughts to again wander new paths. It's also useful for preventing headaches from muscle tension!

That's a form of meditation and is indeed very helpful and healthy! Moscow Mitch didn't suddenly decide to meditate, though..
