What's all this about having 3 brains?

You might have seen me post about mBraining or mBIT, or heard me mention your three brains. This article provides an overview of what this is, why it's powerful and how you can learn how to use your three brains to enhance your success.

What is mBraining/mBIT?

Neuroscience shows us that we have complex, adaptive and fully functional neural networks or 'brains' in our heart, gut and head. This scientific knowledge aligns with thousands of years of esoteric and spiritual traditions informing us about these three powerful intelligences. mBraining is where neuroscience meets ancient wisdom.


The way our multiple brains communicate and operate with each other is vital for success and happiness. Habits, learned behaviours and patterns may mean our brains are not aligned, which can lead to internal conflict or struggle.


The field of mBraining was developed by Marvin Oka and Grant Soosalu from analysing and synthesising thousands of pieces of literature and research drawing on insights from neuroscience, NLP, cognitive linguistics and behavioural modelling. The resulting approach is practical, potent, and immediate in its results.


mBraining is the process of aligning and harnessing the power of your multiple brains. The suite of practical methods it provides is called mBIT - multiple Brain Integration Techniques.

Why is mBIT powerful?

Have you ever experienced any of the following?

  • Internal conflict between your thoughts, feelings and actions

  • Repeatedly not taking action or sabotaging your dreams, goals or plans

  • Difficulty making decisions

  • Inability to stop unwanted behaviours or habits

  • Feeling that something is missing and you’re not fully connected with your deepest inner self

  • Chronically experiencing disempowering emotional states such as frustration, depression, anger, anxiety, etc.

  • Chronic health issues, especially those to do with the heart or gut region?

If any of these sound familiar, it’s likely that your multiple brains are out of alignment. Challenges like these can be overcome by using the deeply integrative mBIT techniques that allow our brains to work together.

How can I connect to my multiple brains?

The book mBraining - using your multiple brains to do cool stuff (by Grant Soosalu and Marvin Oka) outlines the theory along with practical ways you can communicate with and align your multiple brains.
