The Default Mode Network is that part of the brain most impacted by Connection Supplements. DMN). The DMN consists of the forebrain, cortical regions, and inner thalamus and hypothalamus (Buckner, Andrews-Hanna, & Schacter, 2008, p. 2). The DMN itself is the neurological substrate of the Bodily Ego.

Notes

"The Default Mode Network is called “default” because it is the default activity mode of the brain. Brain structures associated with the DMN become active when you are absent of action, i.e. absent of goal directed behavior—when you are doing nothing, basically. When you are doing something like solving a math problem, driving a car, making breakfast, etc., the DMN is in a quiescent state. However, when your mental states are “undirected,” the DMN fires up. The DMN shows “persistent brain activity that is as vigorous as that when individuals solve externally administered math problems” (Sosteric, SA1).
