Your Three Brains

So, imagine your brain is like a group of three close pals working together in a team. At the front, you have the rational brain, which is like the thoughtful friend who’s always planning and making decisions. When you’re wondering if it’s a good idea to take that job or what you should make for dinner, that’s this guy chiming in.

Now, smack in the middle, there’s the emotional brain. Picture it as the heart of the group, reacting to things with all sorts of feelings. It’s like that buddy who’s always expressive, whether cheering at a fun surprise or getting teary during a heartfelt movie.

Tucked deeper inside is the habitual brain. This one’s all about the routines. It’s like that dependable friend who knows your favorite stories by heart. You know when you’re driving home and suddenly you’re there, but don’t remember every turn? That’s because this pal took the lead.

All in all, your brain’s like this trio of friends: one thinks, one feels, and one gets stuff done out of habit. They all pitch in, making your day run smoothly. Cool, right?
