An approach to nonlinear dynamical modeling of interaction between conscious and automatic processes in the brain is proposed. Illustration of this approach on the nonlinear equation for the current density in the cortex is presented. Nonlinearity is determined by the sigmoidal firing rate of neurons. The current density is considered as complex field with real and imaginary parts representing automatic and conscious processes. The interaction is due to the nonlinearity of the system. From this approach it follows that the nonlinear dynamics for pure imaginary process (a dream) is quite different from the dynamics of automatic process.
