The Untold Story. Every time we study the conscious mental processes tend to bring rational knowledge as a reference, essentially the knowledge of mental processes is filtered from the analysis of psychological processes. It has the good fortune to work for fifteen years with my colleague, friend Antonio Musso, and comparison with him allowed me to understand the 'animal' which is in each one of us. One of the most interesting of our brain is the amygdala, a small portion of the brain, which was slightly less than a nut that has a particular function, recognizes our state of mind through our behavior, our posture. As part of the brain, the so-called first so-called reptilian brain, the oldest portion of our brain is not connected to the processes logical and rational neocortex, the third part of the brain evolved only present in humans, it is not updated by the thoughts, simply acts as relay between the behavior and inner processes shown to have physiological reactions by engaging solely on account of acquisition, èsorprendente result, we react, without realizing directly, the position to take the first thoughts that we use. In other words "we" for what we do. But the amygdala does not stop the behavior, it is also responsible for the adaptation by the individual environment as well as to others, the human environment is in fact the first reference we have around us, we can negotiate or from the group, be assonant or dissonant with the group, tend to the man tends to conform automatically to the group, feeling so protected, guided and supported by the group. The practice of psychotherapy takes little account of these important suggestions from neuroscience, often bringing excessive attention to the logical processes of thought and conscious, moving away from simple and effective solutions which pretend to be, the behavior of emulation by the adult child, who copy what they see done by the adult to learn and then present it in person. The dramatization of correct behavior by the individual is an important experience to be pursued, much more useful and decisive than many words and many ragionameni. As Mc Gill reminds us, psychotherapist and hypnotist and American, to achieve a result we need to do three types of experiences in order: to pretend, pretend to learn, give, imagine what we want and make us aware of what we have need to accomplish. Only with the knowledge we can achieve, just dreaming, imagining, possismo reach awareness, but only pretending to be espererieze we get closer to us fans dreaming of being, become aware and realize. In this process of emulation, which is typical of all forms of learning, which includes the activities of mirror neurons, Add to this, expectations, what others expect of us, we emulate that or we let ourselves be guided, and what we expect from others of course, by their behavior adeguante, and we clear the influence of the amygdala and its potential use in psychotherapy .
