The brain has many different purposes and it defines the self. How our brain does this is through perception and action. Perception is located towards the back of our brain as action is located towards the front (more specifically the cortex). Emotions and physical action that are controlled enable us to think for ourselves and be able to use problem solving skills to be able to exit situations of conflict or to assist in solving them. Using brain biology memory serves to be important. losing our memory causes us to lose part of ourselves. Same with any damage to the brain, we lose part of ourselves in the process. The self being in homeostasis to itself is very important to maintaining the balence between the human beings mind, body, and spirit, but most importantly the soul.
Perception is very important. How we percieve things affect how we react to stimuli in our environment and that all stems from our brains' constant activity. This is essential to the field of psychology.
