  1. It’s not really mindless, though, is it? It’s more like… a sort of trance, perhaps? Letting your non-conscious mind idly sort through whatever happens to burble up into your only half-conscious mind, while you continue on autopilot whatever it is you are doing. Admittedly, I think you have to be comfortable with yourself in order to do it well, but I always find it to be an excellent way to, say, organize what my school papers are going to be about, or plot a story. I think it’s most like awake dreaming, really?
