Option 1

When are you most conscious—while you are calm, angry, happy, or moved; while absorbed in a movie, video game, or athletic activity; while engaged in a spirited conversation, making decisions, meditating, reflecting, trying to solve a difficult problem, daydreaming, or feeling creative? How do these considerations shed light on what consciousness is? Relate your observations to your readings about consciousness this week.
