      There is a network of brain regions that becomes more active when people are resting and not engaging in any particular activity. This network is called the default mode network. It is thought to be linked to mind-wandering and daydreaming. You can find out more about it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6A-RqZzd2JU
