Brain areas involved

And now some exciting information about the brain regions involved.

Prefrontal cortex. The prefrontal cortex is involved in planning, decision making, and emotional self management. Positive thinking can increase activity in this area, leading to better decisions and higher emotional self-regulation. The amygdala. The amygdala is the center for processing emotions, especially fear and stress. Positive thinking can help regulate the activity of the amygdala and thus reduce anxiety and stress. The hippocampus. The hippocampus is critical for learning and memory. Positive thinking can promote the activity and growth of neurons in the hippocampus, leading to improved cognitive function and memory performance. The anterior cingulate cortex. The anterior cingulate cortex is involved in the processing of emotions and social cognition. Positive thinking can increase activity in this area and thereby promote social bonding and empathy.
