Day Dreaming and Mind Wandering
I’m not entirely sure what websites you look at, but of the 300 or so I peruse daily I’ve seen a few separate instances referencing articles on day dreaming and/or mind wander (and zoning out). All are very interesting and basically state that it isn’t a bad thing, it’s just human. The WSJ gives us A Wandering Mind Heads Us Toward Insight. Discover Magazine offers The Brain Stop Paying Attention: Zoning Out Is a Crucial Mental State. And, Jonah Lehrer gives us his post Daydreaming and Booze.
