Explanation
The amygdala is an important gland located deep within the temporal lobes of the brain. It is involved with the “fight or flight” reaction. If the amygdala senses that you are in danger, it sends nerve impulses to the hypothalamus, which activates the pituitary gland, which activates the adrenal glands to produce the stress hormones known as adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol, triggering the fight or flight response.
- Common symptoms of imbalance may include:
- Anxiousness
- Easily startled
- Difficulty sleeping
- High blood sugar
- Fast heart rate
- Digestive problems
- It is not known if any emotions are generated from the amygdala, although research shows connections between the amygdala and some emotional responses.
- Muscle connections: None known
- Diurnal cycle: Not known
If you have been guided to this page by the subconscious mind through testing, it indicates that the amygdala is imbalanced in some way.
