EnglishEmbedded in the middle of the upper and lower brain is the behavioral brain. Like the visceral brain, it is mostly unconscious or automatic, but it can become conscious if necessary, and so we can drive to work without actually being aware of each step of the process. The actions we ultimately choose in our daily lives originate in the behavioral brain. Philosophers call this the “practical” part of our nature; Freud called it ego.The behavioral is trapped in a perpetual act of balance: to reconcile blind forces of the demands of the visceral brain and the lofty ideals of the superior brain of what we must do.
The behavioral brain allows the use of common sense. It is not easy to predict; his talent lies in reconciling forces within the brain and in making a decision based on an external context. He may feel some lower brain pressures to satisfy.
