The unconscious [[mind]] consists of the processes in the mind that occur automatically and are not available to introspection, and include thought processes, [[memory]], affect, and [[motivation]].
> [!wikipedia] [unconsciousness](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconsciousness)
>
> Unconsciousness is a state in which a living individual exhibits a complete, or near-complete, inability to maintain an awareness of self and environment or to respond to any human or environmental stimulus.
> [!wikipedia] [unconscious mind](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconscious%20mind)
>
> Empirical evidence suggests that unconscious phenomena include repressed [[feelings]], automatic skills, subliminal [[perception]], and automatic [[reactions]], and possibly also complexes, hidden [[phobias]], and desires.
>
> Thus the unconscious mind can be seen as the source of dreams and automatic thoughts (those that appear without any apparent cause), the repository of forgotten memories (that may still be accessible to [[consciousness]] at some later time), and the locus of [[implicit knowledge]] (the things that we have learned so well that we do them without thinking).
