We’re used to evaluating HOW intelligent, not WHICH intelligent. This is a fun way to divide it up! Only quasi-scientific, but I think there’s a cultural understanding that makes this…. logical? Maybe. Super useful, either way!

Not saying I have a full handle or correct understanding of the science here…
AND… it’s super fun to imagine intelligence coming from all THREE places with lots of neurons in your body, not just your brain.
Willing to play with this, with me?
Please take as quick or as long as seems right with the questions! You can always come back and start again. If you want a record of your answers, you can enter your email at the final screen to get your responses mailed to you. (That will sign you up to my mailing list if that’s not how you got here in the first place – it’ll be once a week, same format.) Thanks for playing!

It’s relatively obvious what the brain does; we’re familiar with that.

And then… for you, what intelligence would live inside the guts?
It super doesn’t matter if you believe there’s actually intelligence or not! There ARE neurons, and it’s a weird quirk of the mind to be able to assign jobs. It’s kind of like you’re giving your gut a job, for the sake of this quiz.
Guts = courage, right?

If you presented a situation in your life to all three locations, what do they say?
I’d start with heart or guts… brains are incredibly good at talking and convincing you that you don’t need the other inputs.
This can be weird if you don’t do it often! It’s easiest as a conversation…
“Hey Heart! What do you have to say about [situation]? What haven’t I been seeing?” is a nice way to get started.
