Brain Type 2

Picture your brain as a high-speed race car with brakes in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) – the frontal command center. The PFC stops you from saying or doing things that aren't in your best interest but can also halt creative, innovative, out-of-the-box thinking if it works too hard.

SPECT scans of individuals with Brain Type 2 typically show lower activity in the PFC. Studies also show that individuals with Brain Type 2 may have low dopamine levels, a neurotransmitter involved with focus and motivation, which can make it hard to concentrate. People with Brain Type 2 usually need excitement or stimulation to stay focused.

Smokers and heavy coffee drinkers tend to fit this Brain Type, as they use these substances to stimulate their brains.

If your affinity for adventure aligns with Brain Type 2, we have a strategy to help you balance things out. Begin by elevating your dopamine levels to fortify your PFC. Also, opting for protein-rich, lower-carb diets and regular physical activity can be a game-changer. Taking brain-boosting supplements with stimulating ingredients like green tea, rhodiola, and ginseng can help balance your brain. Anything that relaxes or calms your brain might not be the best fit.

Let's keep those creative juices flowing!

People with Brain Type 2 aren’t exactly thrill-seekers or the first to adopt the latest tech trends. While the entrepreneurial path isn't off the table, it's not their go-to. Instead, they prefer a structured playbook and find comfort in playing by the established rules.
