Our deepest reality, our Nonconscious, our mind,
our soul-- whatever your preferred term is-- speaks to us constantly, telling us what isn't working.
For example, although most white Americans self-report little to no racial bias against black people,
they have been shown to possess robust implicit, or Nonconscious, biases.
Although subcortical circuits
are not directly responsible for conscious feelings, they provide Nonconscious inputs that coalesce with other kinds of neural
signals in the cognitive assembly of conscious emotional experiences.
