In this session, Stephen Simpson explores the amygdala and its role in emotional response, focusing on stress, fear, and behavioural control. He discusses the left and right amygdala functions, its connection to the limbic system, and its place in the reptile brain. Highlighting how stress impacts the amygdala size and social behaviour, Simpson addresses the primitive brain responses and the amygdala’s role in homeostasis. Using metaphors like the "elevator," he explains managing stress responses and achieving higher consciousness. This understanding fosters awareness and helps individuals navigate life’s challenges by balancing instincts with behavioural control and mindfulness.
