This exploratory review synthesizes ten foundational works to examine consciousness, perception, behavior, social interactions, and subjective wellbeing. Integrating neuroscience, philosophy, developmental psychology, and quantum cognition, it proposes a Socio-Conscious Framework informed by quantum probability and entanglement principles, alongside evidence-informed practices for strengthening cognitive abilities and everyday awareness in daily life.
