I stumbled across an intriguing article about the brain the other day.

Scientists have found that when the brain is inactive (not engaged in thought) that it’s actually doing at least as much work as it does when it’s thinking. Furthermore the study found that daydreaming is an important event for the brain to “connect the dots” of experience.

    “Daydreaming may sound like a mental luxury, but its purpose is deadly serious: Buckner and his Harvard colleague Daniel Gilbert see it as the ultimate tool for incorporating lessons learned in the past into our plans for the future. So important is this exercise, it seems, that the brain engages in it whenever possible, breaking off only when it has to divert its limited supply of blood, oxygen and glucose to a more urgent task.”

This is great news for we daydreaming cleaners and restorers!
