There is a part of your brain that exists for your survival called the reptilian brain, which is the original part of your brain. As humans evolved, our brains grew & other parts were added, such as the limbic system which deals with emotions & the cerebral portion which is the thinking part. The reptilian brain is located at the stem of the brain, very securely protected by the rest of the brain. When all other parts of the brain are non-functional, this part will still be ticking away, assuring your physical integrity survival.

When you experience the emotion of fear, your reptilian brain wake up into action and the rest of your brain shuts down. The function of this part of your brain is to support you either to fight or in flight. When you are in the emotion state of fear, you have two choices & everything you do will be based on one of those choices.

Additionally, when you are experiencing fear, your entire body goes into fight or flight mode. All your blood is redirected to the parts that are needed for fight or flight – your heart, lungs, muscles, and reptilian brain. The rest of your brain is left with only enough blood to keep it on idle, which means that you have no cabability for rational or creative thought. It’s all

• black or white,
• yes or no,
• fight or flight
• good or evil.

In this state you do not have the ability to think of alternative solutions to the situation. Only you two choices run or fight.
