Easy BRAIN FAQs
The AMYGDALA
The Amygdala (ah-MIG-doll-uh) is a little "nut shaped" organ (and part
of your brain) located about one inch inside from the side
of your ears.
You have two amydalae, one for the left
brain hemisphere, and another for the right hemisphere.
When the front part of your amygdala is
turned on you experience POSITIVE emotion.
When the back part of your amygdala is
turned on, you experience NEGATIVE emotion. The
trick is to Click Click Click your Amygdala Forward and
experience continuous positive brain-power fun.
MAIN BRAIN PARTS
The human brain is really 3 brains in 1. It is a reptile
brain (your brain stem) surrounded by an emotional/social
mammal brain, further surrounded by your big wrinkly
primate brain which computes more advanced thinking. The
front 1/3 portion of this primate brain, the part from
your ears forward, is the most advanced part of your brain
called THE FRONTAL LOBES. It is this part which makes
humans unique and allows conceptual and abstract thinking.
FRONTAL LOBES POP!!!
It is the frontal lobes which allows the "transcendence
phenomenon" or "popping your frontals" (going beyond where you are at, big time) has been
historically labled "enlightenment" "EUREKA!" "nirvana" "satori"
"AHHHHHH HAAA!".
You get the picture. But it is really a
function of the brain, and science knows what makes it
happen. It happens when you get a major increase of frontal lobes
activity. You can make it happen if you know how your
brain works. Simple!
 How do I know if my advanced frontal lobes are ON?
Your amygdala is an automatic BRAIN
THERMOSTAT. It automatically tells you how much of your
brain has been turned on by your EMOTIONS.
Happy emotions indicate advanced frontal lobes circuits
are connected. Miserable emotions indicate that you are in
puny reptile brain circuits. Emotions are just like those
indicator lights in your car "Oil Pressure" "Temperature".
When positive emotion is low, advanced brain fuction is
low. Negative emotion (fear, anger, depression, boredom)
is a warning signal: "Turn on
Frontal Lobes to get going!." Positive
emotion [happy] is a built in REWARD MECHANISM to encourage
you to keep frontal lobes advanced circuits open;
"Keep it up!!" This is nature's brilliant method for
encouraging further evolution of wo/mankind and billions
of human brains.
