Reactive Brain-  it reacts to information instinctively rather than through thinking.

Limbic System-  the brains emotional core. 

RAS- receives input from sensory nerves that come from your body organs. 

Sensory Cortex areas- these specialize to analyze the data from your five senses.

Dopamine-an important neurotransmitter that helps electrical signals travel from one neuron to another. In increases and decreases based on the emotional state.

Hippocampus: it links new sensory input to memories from the past and present.

Once info is sent to the brain, it’s routed to the prefrontal cortex or the automatic brain. When your stressed by negative emotions, you’re more likely to have less control when info enters your brain. When your interested in a topic and not stressed, the info goes into your thinking brain, but when your emotions are negative, your brain filters the info into the reactive brain, sometimes leading you to make bad choices.
