The Brain: Gut, Heart and Head

I have just read a fascinating neuroscience article on the brain having 3 centers, the gut (intestinal track), the heart and the head.  Each center guiding our feelings and interactions.  I found it so fascinating to learn that the gut has more neurons than the spinal column.  They are finding that when information comes into the body it first is transmitted to the gut, then to the heart then to the head.  

So cool!
