Science now says we have 100 billion neurons in the brain. There are 5 times as many neuronal networks allocated for threat detection than there are for non-threat input. This is why negativity is so easy to default to AND so…
Your cortices, like muscles, grow with use. So if you use your limbic brain to function mostly--in fear and threat--you strengthen that part of the brain so it dominates. If you use your prefrontal cortex mostly--for higher level thought like…
Neuroscience and fMRI's now tell us that insight and higher-order thought processes such as empathy, unity consciousness, and a sense of one-ness all occur in the prefrontal cortex of the brain. We also know that stress and fear strengthen the…
Our Amygdala is the cornerstone of our fight-or-flight and fear response. It keeps us safe in emergencies, action-oriented in crisis, and powerful when we have little reserves. It also happens to dominate with use and become our filter for the…
There are many different ways to stimulate brain activity through electrical, mechanical, and frequency manipulation. Yet, there is a simple and practical way to use the technology at arm's reach to help you calm down your fight-or-flight center and engage…
Our amygdala is masterful at creating imagery that imbued with vivid emotional charge. In fact, it's expert in the ones relating to fear and survival. Our hippocampus likes to store these charged stories and reference them easily when a current…
