Physicalism and Dualism in daily life

Our mind and body do a lot everyday at every moment; here we are going to analyse a normal story in the physicalistic and dualistic way.
One day, Julieta went to visit Katya, had been so long without seeing her. They began to talk and after a while, someone knocked on the door. Katya and Julieta started to think and analyse who could be the person at the other side of the door, a neighbour, pizza, a robber, etc. Then, Katya opened and observed that it was Abigail; she was there for visiting Katya too and the 3 girls continued talking.


Dualism:
 -Physical events:breathe, talk, walk, knock, hear
 -Mental events: remember, analyse, imagine, to be afraid
Physicalism:
 -Conscious brain activities: analyse, imagine, to question, talk, knock
 -Unconscious brain activities: to be afraid, breathe, answer, listen, to be happy
