Triune Brain

In the Internal Martial Arts we make further use of the fact that all 3 brains are connected in this way and therefore interact,in the following way.The Reptilian Brain is a purely reflex brain, which will act in accordance with how the other two brains are programmed.As the Paleomammalian is our body/artistic brain it can be programmed or re-programmed with fighting principles and the way to fight,and as it is in charge of long term memory and memory recall,these fighting principles will then become a reflex action when we are in Reptile Brain mode. The Paleomammalian is programmed by using body movement methods,and not language or text,which is how the Neomammallian is programmed.It is programmed by using ABSTRACT TRAINING METHODS which are not understood by the Neomallian (logical thinking brain) and therefore filter through to the paleomammalian, programming it or re-programming it with moves that will be more useful in a fight. ATM`s are based on the natural movement of chi. Similarly techniques and training methods based on NATURAL BODY MOVEMENT methods may also be used to programme or re-programme the paleomammalian with moves that will be more useful for fighting and that would become our reflex action when in the Reptilian Brain.
