What is Default mode network?

The Default mode network is like your brain’s daydreaming mode, it lets you think about yourself and imagine what might happen next.

Imagine you’re sitting on the couch after a long day at school. You're not doing anything special, but your brain is still working hard in the background. That's when the Default mode network kicks in. It helps you daydream, remember your favorite stories, or think about what you want to be when you grow up.

When you’re playing a game or listening to music, your brain uses different parts, like when you're solving a puzzle or dancing around the room. But when you stop doing those things and just sit quietly, your Default mode network takes over. It's like your brain is taking a little nap, but it's still thinking about you and what’s going on in your world.

This happens even when you're not trying, sometimes while you’re waiting for the bus or lying in bed before falling asleep. Your brain is always busy, even when you're just being you.
