The Gut brain: Intuition

Check this out,  scientists have discovered our intuition.  It's in our gut, they say. They are even going so far as to say it is a second brain referring to it as our gut brain.  Neurons in our intestines.  Cool.
 
Due to the fact that current brain research is delving into the area of intuition, people who need a scientific frame of reference to understand what they feel in their gut, now have it.   So this means that now everyone, not just contemplatives like me, can understand intuition.   We can all now better understand what that gut feeling is.  It is neurons firing, thinking (if you will), offering guidance. 

The Nestle food scientist, Heribert Watzke, says that this second brain in our gut is a full-fledged brain and that it is connected to our limbic system.  The two brains can even speak to each other, he says, and make decisions together. Cool.

So according to science we have two brains.  Cool.

Some scientists are even saying we have three brains.  The third one is in the heart.  Cool.

Steve Jobs, one of our information age guru's, said in his commencement speech at Stanford University in June 2005, "Your time is limited...Don't waste it living someone else's life....Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.  And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.  They somehow know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

Cool stuff.....
