Day dreaming is a state of consciousness which involves a low level of conscious effort. It lies in between active consciousness and dreaming. It is like dreaming when we are awake. Day dreaming usually start spontaneously when what we are doing requires less than our full attention. Mind wandering is perhaps the most obvious type of day dreaming. Even as we read, we sometimes take side trips into our own private kingdoms of imagery and memory
We drift off into a world of fantasy. We imagine ourselves partying, at faraway places etc. As you daydream while you engage in something else, you could as well be solving a problem or making plans. Daydreaming can remind us of important things ahead.
When we sleep and dream, our level of awareness is lower than when we daydream. Sleep and dreams are at very low levels of consciousness. All these are normal, everyday occurrences in our lives.
An altered state of consciousness occurs when a person is in a mental state that noticeably differs from normal awareness. Drugs, medication, traumas, fatigue, hypnosis and sensory deprivation produce altered states of consciousness. Persons in this state may not be able to give dependable information, evidence, support etc
