Get To Know The Type Of Human Brain That Determines Personality And Way Of Thinking
JAKARTA - Have you ever felt worried? Or why do you suddenly get emotional? In fact, you start to feel like everything is going through your head. Based on research published by Mindbodygreen, Tuesday, May 24, there are five main types of brain that influence who you are, how you behave, and how you relate to other people.
Balanced Brain TypePeople with balanced brain types tend to have healthy brains with full, balanced, and symmetrical activity. If you have this type, you tend to be focused, flexible, organized, and emotionally stable. You show up on time for meetings, keep your appointments, and prefer to follow the rules. Balanced types generally tend to be happy.
Spontaneous Brain TypeWhen there is lower activity in the front part of the brain or prefrontal cortex, it is called the spontaneous brain type. This type tends to be creative and adventurous, but you may also be impulsive, disorganized, and have a short attention span.
Trying new things, liking surprises, or going on last-minute trips make you happy. Boredom and also having to queue makes you unhappy. This type also has a susceptibility to ADHD.
Persistent Brain TypePeople with this brain type often experience increased activity in the front part of the brain in an area called the anterior cingulate gyrus (ACG). This type tends to be strong-willed, refusing to take no for an answer. It will also develop as you go through a routine, but can become disorganized when plans change. And difficulty going with the flow.
It is likely that people with this type of brain are anxious who find it difficult to forget the past. Also tends to be argumentative.
When it comes to relationships, this type can be stubborn and tend to remember every fight they've had with their partner. Potential problems that can occur, When the brain's ACG is overactive, it means it can get stuck in negative thoughts, which can be linked to anxiety, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
To calm overactive ACG, boost serotonin in the brain with healthy carbohydrates (like sweet potatoes and hummus), salmon, turkey, eggs, nuts, seeds, and supplements.
Sensitive Brain TypeIncreased activity in the limbic system or emotional center in the brain is a pattern associated with the Sensitive Brain Type. If you have this type, you tend to feel deeply, empathize, and may be prone to mood disorders, automatic negative thoughts, and depression.
For this type, listening to relaxing music, taking walks in nature, having a deep conversation with a close friend, and practicing mindfulness can increase feelings of pleasure and contentment. On the other hand, loud noises, bright lights, small talk at parties, and feelings of isolation make you sad.
Cautious brainWhen the amygdala and basal ganglia are more active than average, this brain is called the cautious brain type. With this type, you tend to be prepared, motivated, conscientious, and reliable but may be prone to anxiety.
Completing tasks on time or early, making a list of pros and cons before making big decisions, and feeling safe and secure makes you happy. A chaotic environment, too much to do, or watching sad news reduces your happiness.
