      Hey, good question!

      Consciousness is your awareness of your surroundings and your ability to respond to it. So if you see someone walk in to the room that you’re in, you are conscious that they are there.
      Or if you start to feel cold, you are conscious of it and you respond by putting a jacket on.

      Hope that helps!
