THE BRAIN IN YOUR HEAD.
This is what you automatically think of when you hear the word, ābrain.ā
Your head brain has 86 billion neurons, the cells that process and transmit information. Itās where synapses, electrical impulses, and hormones talk to each other, which is what allows for consciousness and awareness. Most importantly, itās what gives you the ability to identify patterns and make sense of the world.
BRAIN #2
THE BRAIN IN YOUR HEART.
Yep, your heart has a brain, too.
Your heart houses more than 39 million neurons. Itās not nearly as many as the head, but it fills this gap with generating the largest electromagnetic field in the body. The heart sends as many messages to the head brain as it receives. Researchers in the field of energy cardiology have discovered that your heart creates thinking hormones similar to the type created in the head brain.
BRAIN #3
THE BRAIN IN YOUR GUT.
Your gut brain consists of two nerve centers called the myenteric and the submucosal, which have approximately 100 million neurons. This is more than the spinal cord.
The gut produces 70 percent of the hormone cortisol, which is released during stressful periods to regulate metabolism, control blood pressure, and assist with memory formulation. This gut brain is also responsible for processing information during sleep. 70 percent of serotonināthe neurotransmitter responsible for relaying signals across the brain to help you think clearerāis produced in the gut.
WHEN YOU LEARN TO LISTEN TO ALL THREE BRAINS, SOMETHING REMARKABLE HAPPENS: YOU FINALLY GO ALL IN ON LIFE.

DEATH IS DIFFERENT WHEN YOU FIND IT ON THE BATHROOM FLOOR.
DEATH IS DIFFERENT WHEN THE WALLS ARE SPLATTERED WITH BLOOD.
DEATH IS DIFFERENT WHEN THE SMELL OF ROT IS IN THE AIR.
And death is definitely different when the corpse before you is not only the woman who brought you into this world, but the scene reveals she violently struggled until her last breath.
