CEO and founder of BrainKey, Owen Phillips, PhD, explains the meaning and future of brain longevity.
We have two amygdalae, located in the right and left hemispheres of our brain. Anxiety, but also happiness, sadness, and anger, are processed with the help of our amygdala. The amygdala also plays an important role in our memory by helping store events and emotions.
The Occipital Lobe contains the brain's visual processing system. It interprets vision (color, light, movement).
Even though each part of the brain is involved in specific tasks, our brains function as a whole. They are highly connected and for most tasks, many different parts of our brains are involved.
The Temporal Lobe is involved in memory and auditory perception, such as hearing. The Temporal Lobe helps us understand language.
The Parietal Lobe manages perception and helps with the integration of sensory input, such as touch, pain, and temperature. It also interprets language and words, as well as signals from vision, hearing, motor, sensory, and memory. Also, spatial and visual perception are processed here.
