A couple of words about Conscious Mind (CM) and SubConscious Mind (SCM).
The "official" definitions you can find in Wiki or elsewhere, but here I'll try to show "another projection" - "energoinformational".
I understand it as follows (greatly simplified):
Etheric world - Etheric body - SCM - CM - Real Body - Real World
In various texts and practices, SCM can be called as "double" (I prefer this one), "twin", outer shell, intuition, etc. Again, simplified.
All the chakras, connections to egregors, higher beings, etheric information, energoparasites, larvae belong to the "etheric body" with a direct access to/from SCM.
SCM has some direct passive (listening, seeing, sensing) and active access to the physical body, but mostly through the "background processes" (like breathing, blood pumping, digesting). The rest is controlled by CM.
Our "rational mind", our thoughts, internal dialogue, wishes, likes and dislikes, emotions, phobias, philias, addictions, duties belong to CM. When we stop thinking and get a solution, it's referred to as "intuition", but in fact it's SCM.
Some say, that SCM knows, but can't do anything, while CM knows nothing, but does all the work.
The idea of many practices is to merge SCM and CM in one, however the most of our conscious deeds (that produce karma) separates CM and SCM father from each other.
Trance states allow to connect SCM to the Real Body directly and move the CM to the monitoring position.
So, what does it mean for the Real Life? CM makes decisions. CM assigns "weights" to all available information and the choice with the higher weight wins.
For example. What should the Real Body do in the next 1 min?

CM is constantly scanning through the list by switching attention to all those signals and after assigning the weights according to wishes, intentions, current physical state, education, location, weather, phase of the moon, mood, etc. the decision has been made by CM - FOOTBALL!!!
If the internal dialogue were turned off and/or the CM were shut down, the decision would have been made by SCM - "make one step to the left and stick your right arm forward" (and prevent a knife falling down on your foot).
