The Triune Brain

Neocortex = The Story

Limbic (paleo) = The Feeling Tone

Reptilian = Sensorimotor Reflexive/Instinctual Response

Autocorrect detects patterns and anticipates content to save time andeffort, sometimes withdisastrous results!

R AMYGDALA

“Smoke detector” of the brain

Danger pattern detector

Initiates defensive behaviors(fight, flight, freeze, collapse,dissociation)

Page 20: WORK, STRESS, and MINDFULNESS 1 2 ½ ⅓ ¼ ⅕ 1/∞ 3

20

Right Frontal CortexInteroception

The “how” of relating to selfand others – attachment style

The center for self soothing(secure attachment) or selfjudgment (insecure attachment)

Not concerned with time –it’s always NOW

22

Left Frontal Cortex

Curiosity

Optimism

Learning new associations –“Things that fire together wiretogether”

Able to distinguish betweenpast and present

Right Parietal Cortex

Spatial orientation

Boundary between “self” and“not self”

Personal space, safety zone

Anterior Cingulate Cortex

Focused attention and concentration

The only area of the brain that candown-regulate the amygdala

Rich connection with both left and rightfrontal regions

Sympathetic Activation

Freeze Highly alert, engaged, attentive, still but ready to move

Fight/Flight No thinking or cognition Instinctual, reflexive

Page 31: WORK, STRESS, and MINDFULNESS 1 2 ½ ⅓ ¼ ⅕ 1/∞ 3

31

Parasympathetic Activation

Collapse Heart rate slowed, decreased muscle tone, decreased awareness, no thinking, no movement

Constantly knocks us out of the zone of optimal arousal.
