Your Brain and Mind
ОглавлениеWe all hear the terms “use your brain” and “use your mind” interchangeably. But, in actuality the brain and the mind are two different things.
Our brains are a physical organ located in our skulls while our minds are separate abstract extensions from the brain. The mind is an invisible entity that functions based on the various things the brain is stimulated from.
Our brain which is located in our heads is part of the central nervous system in the human body. It is divided into the right and left side which are called cerebral hemispheres.
These two sides are actually two masses of furrowed tissue called grey matter. Included in the structural aspect of the brain is the brain stem and cerebellum. The function of the brain serves our bodies to control and coordinate our muscular movements, bodily coordination of various biological functions, sensory reception and integration, the production of speech, memory storage and enables the mind to carry on thought and knowledge.
The mind on the other hand cannot be physically described. It is actually a term used for the higher functions carried out by the brain. Included as part of the mind is things that are subjectively part of our consciousness like our personalities, thought, reason, memory, intelligence and emotions. Keep in mind however if the physical brain is damaged it does effect mind function.
So in simple terms what all this means is the brain is concrete and the mind is not. The mind is a non physical existing entity while the brain is physical matter. The brain is actually soft nervous tissue that responds to various stimulation which results in both bio chemical and bio electrical responses.
When the brain receives various stimulation it sends messages out throughout our central nervous systems as a response. It is the result of the responses that are sent out that cause the mind to work. The physical reactions of the brain and central nervous system are what cause the mind to be stimulated as well.
We see it when the brain wave activity is recorded on brain imaging equipment. The imaging lets us know whether a person is conscious and unconscious as well as follows the patterns of thought that occurs in those states.
What occurs as thought; is the process that the occurrences we experience through physical stimulation of the brain and the impulses it sends to the rest of the body. The brain and body's reaction creates output from the activity to the mind such as a thought or idea. Scientific research points to the fact that all conscious thought is triggered like a byproduct of actual brain activity to begin with.
