Understanding the Brain Science of Emergencies
The brain is divided into an inner brain and an outer brain, each serving different functions. The inner brain, responsible for automated functions like regulating heartbeat and maintaining homeostasis, operates quickly and instinctively in emergency situations. The outer brain, evolved over the last few hundred thousand years, allows for goal-setting and higher cognitive functions. Understanding how these brain regions function under stress can help in preparing for emergency responses.
