Iridology Brain Zones
The Iris Brain Zones encompass the hypothalamus discriminating activities, the cerebral cortex, pituitary, pineal, subtle psychic energies and spiritual centers. Hyperactivity is recognized by whitening of the area that may be accompanied by headaches or a hot head. Depletion is measured by varying shades of darkness in lacunas, radii soleris, pigmentation, lymphatic tophi, and defects.
Because the brain monitors and controls virtually every activity of the body, its proper function is necessary to health. Like other organs and tissues, portions of the brain may have inherent strengths and weaknesses. The genetic inheritance from the parents and the nutrition and lifestyle of the mother affect the quality, quantity, and characteristics of the brain cells, particularly during the prenatal period. Every organ or organ system is represented by at least one segmented area of the brain which monitors and controls its function and harmonizes it with other organ activities. We have a "chest brain," "stomach brain," "kidney brain," "heart brain," and so on. When innervation to or from any of these brain centers is disturbed the corresponding organ cannot function properly. That is why we must always care for the brain and the nervous system first.

Iris Brain Zones - Animation Life
The animation life center is found at 12 o’clock. The anatomical areas represented functionally by the animation life center are the limbic portions of the cerebrum, the thalamus, and hypothalamus including the pituitary gland and pons. The limbic system, thalamus and hypothalamus determine our emotional states and responses. The thalamus and hypothalamus help regulate our degree of alertness, and the hypothalamus is a major relay station between the cerebral cortex and the autonomic centers. The hypothalamus regulates appetite, helps control body temperature, and secretes releasing hormones, one of which controls hormones secreted by the thyroid. (Jensen)
This area of the brain is responsible for sorting messages from senses and determining the importance of those messages.
Related to the Sahasrara, the crown chakra, where we receive life-force energy directly from Source, vitality and verve for life are represented here. This is where spirit enters and union with our higher self is evident. This brain zone also relates to the will and impulses that create our destiny.
One of the greatest laws of life is gravity and it works on this animation center more than any other in the body. This center is the great barometer of life telling us when we have the power to accomplish the thing that has to be done this is the life center in a person which determines what he is capable of doing physically mentally or spiritually. Exhaustion and tiredness is demonstrated more in the center than any other. Health is not simply the absence of disease, but the presence of vitality, verve, exuberance, joy, bounce, get up and go. This is the great barometer of health in the irides and perhaps the most important center of the brain. This is the most magnetic center in the brain, and it needs Silicon, the magnetic element to function properly. It also needs plenty of oxygen to produce energy and burn up toxic waste. (Jensen)
Keywords: (Higher Level Expression): ecstasy, joy, love, vitality, physical energy, mental energy, enjoyment, liveliness, cheerfulness, optimism, spiritual center, unity center for body mind spirit, enthusiasm, memory
Keywords: (Lower Level Expression): gloom, complaining, depression, fatigue, enervation, forgetfulness, despondency, listlessness, hopelessness, pessimism, fearfulness, fussiness, indifference, un-sociability, stupor, heaviness, melancholy, sadness, morbidity, apprehension , discouragement.

Brain Zones - Sensory Motor - Sensory Locomotion
The mid-cortex sensory motor zone coordinates how our senses guide us to stand and move in this world. It works closely with the five senses brain zone, as it integrates mental and physical functions and controls movement. This brain zone influences the sensations that guide us to know where we are: heat, cold, pain, touch, pressure, movement, and tension. It also affects the more subtle functions of perception and reactions to sound or light as well as muscle coordination, strength and fatigue levels. When abnormal, the person suffers from lack of coordination and inhibited movements accompanied by fear, uncertainty, and lack of confidence. (Sharan)
The sensory motor area in the cortex is connected to the cerebellum, which coordinates and refines muscle movements. The cerebrum and cerebellum receive sensory nerve impulses from the muscles and joints and correlate these with impulses from visual, auditory, and other sensory centers (heat, cold, touch, pressure, movement, and position in space). Motor impulses are then sent to initiate and control muscle responses for walking and other bodily movements. (Jensen)
Keywords: (High Level Expression) movement, kinesthesia, proprioception, touch, heat, cold, pressure, muscle coordination, activity, somatic memory
Keywords: (Low Level Expression) awkwardness*, imbalance*, lack of muscle sense, ataxia*, insensitivity to touch, heat, cold, pressure; inactivity, somatic forgetfulness, vertigo

Brain Zones - Inherent Mental - Anxiety
This area involves the midbrain, emotional, and limbic systems of the cerebrum as well as memory association areas of the cortex. We find that memory is dispersed throughout the brain, and memories from this area may connect with memories of other areas by association. Emotions experienced through the limbic system (the emotional brain) affect the thyroid gland. Low level emotional expressions can harm this sensitive gland. (Jensen)
Opposite the adrenal area of the iris, the best understanding comes from considering this potential relationship. Mental and emotional anxiety and conflict patterns accompany manifestations of radii solaris, lymphatic tophi, nerve rings, lacunas, pigmentation, and reflexive fibers in these brain zones. Whether the problems are obsessions or hallucinations, the result is overindulgence in conflict and worry, and added stress for the adrenal glands. When markings are evident in both iris areas, the pattern of behavior may become chronic and compulsive, depending on intensity. A weakened mind becomes receptive to repetitive negative impressions. Positive inherent mental iris areas contribute courage, confidence, optimism, and an independent original spirit that supports success and harmony in life. (Sharan)
Keywords: (High Level Expression) love, aspiration, altruism, creativity, healthy habits, stamina, willpower, hope, concentration, enthusiasm, faith, friendship, liberty, kindness, respect, virtue, curiosity, attention, sentimentality, sincerity, courage, laughter, memory, ideals , initiative, psychic center, art, masculinity / femininity
Keywords: (Low Level Expression) laziness, antisocial, confusion, destructiveness, gives up easily, weakness, aversion, grief, contempt, malice, humiliation, doubt, sadness, unfriendliness, dependency, carelessness, uneasiness, disrespect, antipathy, scorn, spitefulness, boredom, pain sensitivity, callousness, neurosis, psychosis, impulsiveness, bad temper

Brain Zones - Balance, Equilibrium, and Dizziness
Contained in the cerebellum, on the left iris only, this brain zone governs equilibrium in its physical, mental, and emotional aspects. Epilepsy is indicated by dark radii solaris, either severe grand mal or milder, less frequent attacks. Dark defects or lacunas denote petite mal or nocturnal epilepsy. When heightened, this brain zone manifests qualities of higher mind and well-being when discrimination, balance, stability, and security are kept in balance. When hyperactive or hypoactive, physical symptoms include multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, dizziness, and balance difficulties. Opposite iris areas radiate to the uterus prostate vagina anus rectum iris areas. It is interesting to note that epileptic seizures are relieved by enemas and relaxation of the anal sphincter. (Sharan)
This area involves the cerebellum, brain stem, and parts of the sensory motor cortex. Epilepsy, due to damage to some part of the sensory motor cortex or to some other malfunction in the brain, shows up in this center. Hemorrhage, injury, tumors, or abscesses in the cerebellum may result in lack of muscle coordination, staggering or lurching while walking or muscle tremors. A hard blow to the base of the skull can produce death or unconsciousness and lesser trauma to this area causes dizziness. Disturbance of the respiratory center causes lack of oxygen to the brain, resulting in disorientation and Vertigo. We find that Vertigo can also result from toxemia or disturbance of the inner ear.
Keywords: (High Level Expression) equilibrium, smooth muscle coordination, balance, steadiness, walk smoothly and easily, good eye hand coordination, clear-headed, alert, somatic coordination memory
Keywords: (Low Level Expression) epilepsy center, lack of coordination, imbalance, tremor, staggering, lurching, over or under reaching, dizziness, sluggishness, somatic forgetfulness

Brain Zones - Sexuality; Sex Impulse; Dreams; Erogenous Zones of the Brain
There is a principle of vitality in sexuality that permeates and energizes all other aspects of life. Personal magnetism, charm, virility, and femininity are influenced most by the sexual principle. This is the primitive survival center associated with the brain stem and its reticular activating system from Medulla to midbrain. It's most prominent feature in our time is the sexual drive, but it also includes the family instinct, especially motherhood, alertness, “fight or flight” syndrome, competition, imitation, obsessions and hallucinations. The sex area of the brain is in charge of the entire sexual system and the secretion of the life principle, including the principles of growth and cell building (Jensen)
High level expression: Family instinct, Motherhood, Fatherhood, Sexual attraction, Arousal, Excitement, Passion, Creativity, Confidence, Healing center
Low level expression: Envy, Jealousy, Fight or Flight, Possessiveness, Fear of opposite sex, Impotence, Sterility, Loneliness, Frigidity, Rape, Indiscriminate sex, Perversion
*Dark Radii Solaris in this area can indicate any of the above low-level expressions as well as a history of sexual abuse

Brain Zones - The Five Senses
The five senses area involves visual, auditory, gustatory, olfactory, and tactile senses, but also the sensory memory and the senses of emotional pain and pleasure. When we're healthy we enjoy the beauty and fullness of life with all the senses – sight, color, sound, smell, touch, taste - fully alive and fully aware. In heightened and positive states, this zone augments the highly tuned senses of a musician or blind person, who's auditory and tactile senses are more acute. When hyperactive it can lead to overindulgence and hedonistic practices. Hypo activity can be the cause of sensory handicaps or impaired sensation, self-denial, guilt, severe disciplines, and criticism of those who enjoy life.
All sensory signals from the body are received here, including temperature and pain awareness. (Sharan)

Brain Zones - Perfectionism; Self Stress; Ego Pressure; Self Image
The perfectionism pressure brain zone governs blood pressure, regulates decision-making, psychological stress reactions, sexual activity, achievement of ideals and goals, and how we pressure ourselves about them. Mental and emotional energy is invested in ideals and goals, as they are the motivating factors in most worldly activities. Our sense of self and how we pressure ourselves to achieve our dreams is influenced by markings in this brain zone, and the blood pressure relationship is a defense against stress. In its positive aspect, this brain zone encourages all the qualities needed to achieve goals and ideals, and bring them into dynamic expression.
The opposite area on the right iris radiates to the appendix area, explaining why appendicitis occurs during times of stress. Extreme pressure can also lead to strokes, hemorrhage, or blood clots. Desperate obsessions, generated by greed, desire or lust, compulsive behavior, intense, rigid goal directed lifestyles, are the result when individuals are so driven by desire that they are unable to enjoy their family, wealth, or success. (Sharan)
Ego pressure has primarily to do with the effect of cerebral stress. What a person thinks of himself in total. This center expresses power, concentration, drive, and these qualities can become quite harsh on the nervous system. This is the blood pressure center, and iris signs in this area can be associated with either high or low blood pressure. The center has to do with physiological and psychological stress, ambition, decision making and anxiety level. (Jensen)
Keywords: (Higher Level Expression) success, drive, memory, decisiveness, ambition, forcefulness, intentionality, purpose, determination, resolution, aspiration, discipline, confidence, constructiveness, leadership, courage
Keywords: (Lower Level Expression) domination, harshness, greed, selfishness, indolence, vanity, arrogance, coerciveness, cruelty, destructiveness, acquisitiveness, arbitrariness, anxiety, worry, fear, intolerance, laziness, rage, tyranny, impatience, forgetfulness, evasiveness, restlessness, insomnia, nervousness
According to Edward Bach: possessiveness, advice seeking, willpower, resentment, ambition, alternating moods, self-centered, discontent, dissatisfaction, domination, envy, greediness, anxiety, hesitancy , impatience, jealousy, pride, shock, faintness

Brain Zones - Acquired Mental Speech; Listening, Learning, Speaking
This forebrain Zone contains pineal and pituitary glands, cerebrum, and the hypothalamus brain communication center. Speech, listening, and visual learning approaches are combined in this brain zone. During normal activity, brain functions for speech, language, memory, concentration, and their accompanying skills are active, determining how well we function within our family, work, and society. Many finer intellectual capabilities manifest when these functions are heightened, as we are inspired to communicate with the desire for knowledge and an urge to transcend normal states of being with creative absorption. Imbalanced function may lead to dyslexia, stuttering and inability to concentrate as well as lack of interest and forgetfulness. (Sharan)

Brain Zones – Mental Ability; Creative Intelligence; Mental Capacity and Intuition
This area of the irides corresponds to the frontal and prefrontal cerebral cortex, the section of the brain where we organize experience. It is not surprising that it is located next to Broca's speech area in the left hemisphere and the corresponding area of the write, where we may assume that the neural organization for language has influenced the way we organize our perceptions and ideas about the world. (Jensen)
This prefrontal and frontal zone encourages intelligence, logic, reasoning, memory, willpower, and voluntary movement. Many creative, intelligent, critical, exact, and sensitive qualities thrive in this artistic brain zone during heightened activity period when out of balance, inspiration is blocked, tension dominates mental processes, negativity takes root, and perverse tendencies are experienced.

Iris Brain Zones - Medulla
The medulla is a vital brain center containing the respiratory, cardiac and vasomotor centers. It controls expiration, arterial and venous circulation, heart activity, blood vessel diameter, the diaphragm and oxidation of blood, lungs and tissues. The medulla also contains centers for the reflexes of deglutition (swallowing), hiccupping, sneezing, and coughing. Nerve tracts from the spinal cord and brain cross in the medulla, so that the medulla is involved in many sensory motor functions. The choroid plexus which secretes cerebro-spinal fluid is represented in the medulla area of the iris. (Jensen)
Jensen reported that 80% of all cases he examined showed lesions in this area and that x-ray studies of 700 cases revealed calcification in this area of the brain. Disturbance in this area can affect the entire body. Visual, olfactory, and gustatory nerves to the medulla synapse with nerves that stimulate secretion of gastric fluids.
When the medulla is weak, the heart is weak and the lungs are feeble. When the medulla dies the heart stops and no human invention can get it going again. The medulla begins operating before birth and continues until the time of death. (Jensen)
The medulla, at the top of the brain stem, along with the vagus 10th cranial nerve, controls respiration and diaphragmatic coughing, hiccoughing, sneezing, swallowing, and vomiting, as well as salivation, heart regulation, vasomotor response, facial expressions, hearing, digestive and other paramount Nervous System survival and balancing mechanisms aimed at the preservation of vital functions in daily life, and during times of stress. Dark lacunas inform potential inherent weakness activation, through toxins, compression, physical trauma, and stress. Radii solaris from the pupil ring of nourishment or bowel wall (ANW) to the medulla brain zone indicate involvement of the nervous system from bowel toxins spreading via the lymph and circulation. Yellow Brown colors warn there is a fault in the system, and the signals to the body are low. (Sharan)
Keywords: (Higher Level Expression) normal respiration, normal heart rate, normal vasomotor, normal swallowing, normal breathing
Keywords: (Lower Level Expression) ragged respiration, above or below normal heart rate, high or low blood pressure, hiccoughing, sneezing, vomiting, coughing, salivating, forgetfulness, shallow breathing

Iridology Resources & Recommended
The following texts have become my Iridology bibles: Iridology: The Science and Practice in the Healing Arts, Volumes 1 and 2 by Dr. Bernard Jensen; Iridology, A Complete Guide, by Farida Sharan. Dr. Jensen also published Visions of Health - Understanding Iridology, which is excellent as an introduction to Iridology, as well as Iridology Simplified which is more of a pamphlet size intro to Iridology, also excellent. The most comprehensive of all texts mentioned here, a must have text for the serious student of Iridology, is Jensen's Iridology, volume 2.
