Episode 71: Our Primitive Brain

Our brain is a complex organ that performs many functions. There are two main parts of our brains. The primitive brain and then the cognitive or higher brain. In today’s podcast, we are going to discuss the primitive brain and what its job is.  This part of our brain functions from a motivation triad: to seek pleasure, avoid pain, and conserve energy.  This part of our brain helps keep us safe and performs to keep us alive, but sometimes it can also keep us stuck and stagnant.  Join me this week as I discuss the primitive brain, what happens, how this affects us, and how it relates to us spiritually.
