How the Brain Works

Discover the most amazing part of your body—your brain. This quick introduction provides a brief overview of the brain, including some fun and quirky facts.

Areas of the Brain

Learn about the three regions of the brain and how they interact as we experience the world.

Limitations of the Brain

Learn how our brain filters and pays attention to all the information coming in from our five senses.

Neuroplasticity

Understand how our most complex organ is capable of changing throughout our lives and how we all have the ability to learn and change by rewiring our brains.

Emotions and the Brain

Discover what is happening in our brains as we experience emotions. While sometimes our emotions can ‘hijack’ our rational thinking, we also have the power to manage our emotions with conscious thought.

Conscious vs Subconscious Thinking

Learn how our brain operates at conscious and subconscious levels to save precious brain energy and form attitudes, habits and memories. This animation also explores how relying on our subconscious can be both helpful and unhelpful and how more conscious thinking can benefit us.

The Social Brain

Our brains are social organs designed to assess and inform us of potential threats or rewards in our social environments. The workplace is one of the most common social environments the brain is exposed. Understand how your brain may be responding to social cues at work, and how you may be influencing your coworkers’ brain responses by what you say or do.

Managing Stress for Safety

Discover how stress impacts the brain and the implications this can have for safety. This animation also offers brain-friendly strategies for managing stress.
