       Good decisions are made with our hearts, not our brains.

Some researchers refer to the heart as the "little brain." The heart communicates to the brain and the body. Your Heart is used mostly for processing emotions (joy, jealousy, anger, hate, love, lust, compassion, empathy). It helps you to discover what is most important to you in life, priorities, and values. It helps you to connect or disconnect with others based on similarities or difference in those values. Is primarily used for cognitive perception and pattern recognition. You use your head for to reason, analysis, and synthesis information that comes in. One way your head makes meaning of things is through language (verbally, written, body), telling stories and using metaphors.

Some Essential Questions

• How much of our brain function are we born with and how much do we learn?

     The raw material of the brain is the nerve cell, called the neuron. When babies are born, they have almost all of the neurons they will ever have, more than 100 billion of them. Although research indicates some neurons are developed after birth and well into adulthood, the neurons babies have at birth are primarily what they have to work with as they develop into children, adolescents, and adults.

    Newborns' brains allow babies to do many things, including breathe, eat, sleep, see, hear, smell, make noise, feel sensations, and recognize the people close to them. But the majority of brain growth and development takes place after birth, especially in the higher brain regions involved in regulating emotions, language, and abstract thought.
