Think of your body as a company. For the company to thrive, the departments need to communicate and work together. In my beloved BodyTalk Cortices Technique, we tap the cortices to engage these three brains, and I think imagining them in a corporate scenario, helpls get an idea how they work together
1. Head Brain = The CEO 🧑💼
This is where all big decisions are made, as well as where plans for the future are laid out and strategies are developed. But when stressed, the CEO can overthink, freeze up, or make poor calls.
2. Heart Brain = The HR Manager 💖
The heart brain keeps relationships smooth, balances emotions, and helps everyone feel connected. When this department is ignored, stress, conflict, and disconnection spread.
3. Gut Brain = Security + Operations 🚨⚙️
The gut brain handles instinct, safety, and day-to-day operations (like digestion and immunity). If security is on high alert all the time, the whole company runs in panic mode.
When the CEO (head), HR (heart), and Security/Operations (gut) share information and respect each other, the company runs beautifully. However, if one department goes offline or becomes overwhelmed, everything suffers.
Tapping the Cortices is like holding a quick “board meeting” to bring all three brains back into alignment – so your body-company can run smoothly again.
Here is the article describing this wonderful technique in a simple and practical way: BodyTalk Cortices Technique.
