* The terms unconscious, nonconscious, and subconscious
can all be used to describe the absence of awareness or
thought. Even in academic circles, these words are often used
interchangeably without much nitpicking (for once).
Nonconscious is the term Iām going to use because it is broad
enough to encompass both the processes of the mind we
could never consciously access and the moments when we are
simply not paying attention to what surrounds us.
Nonconscious is a description of anything you are not
consciously thinking about.
