Be kind to your brain. Lol.

A lot of what we do is unknowingly done to keep the brain happy.

 

The brain is only at its best within quite narrow tolerances.

 

 

Too hot? Brain not happy...

 

Too cold? Brain not happy...

 

Dehydrated? Brain not happy...

 

Drunk? Brain not happy...

 

Not enough sleep? Brain not happy...

 

Not eaten enough? Brain not happy...

 

Psychoactive drugs? Brain not happy...

 

High stress load? Brain not happy...

 

Etc...

How profoundly brainy an observation!

But…

 

It's the brain that thinks that it's the author of the profound ideas about brain.

 

And who is suggesting that we ought to be kind to the brain?

Oh, wait, it's your brain, that's telling you that you should be kind to your brain.

 

And it's your brain that's really suggesting that you should try to keep the brain happy.

 

Brain--the narcissist.

But wait, it's also my brain that realized it's the brain that's the narcissist;

So I guess my brain is so smart that it recognizes its own flaws--

oh wait, that's my brain making yet another self-congratulatory statement about the brain itself.

It's fun to think about.

 

Who is it that thinks your thoughts?

 

Who is it that observes you thinking your thoughts?
