Prefrontal cortex

 

The frontal lobes want to exercise good judgement, to differentiate between conflicting feelings and thoughts, and to make decisions that are appropriate to our chosen life path. This part of our brain offers us constant choice, initiative and powers of concentration.

When allowed to develop fully with a sound foundation, it enables us access inspiration, wisdom and the natural qualities of our hearts, to set deeply meaningful goals and to continually work towards achieving them.

Highly connected to the heart and all other parts of our brains, it guides our development in response to our environment and has its own natural development phase from age 15 to early adulthood.
