I personally prefer the term “subconscious” for these situations. It gives the impression that a subconscious process is one that is right there, swimming beneath the surface—leaving it able to be accessed by the conscious mind with a greater or lesser degree of ease… while still being a word that people recognise and perhaps don’t have as many incorrect cached thoughts for.
non-conscious sounds like something you are when you’ve been knocked unconscious… :)
