The amygdala has three layers of neurons. It is the center of much of the brain activity related to emotions. The top amygdala layer receives signals from the smell centers, and responds to faces, sounds and musicâespecially happy music. These responses are related to emotions connected with social contacts.
When a 2004 study asked participants to think about a favorite food, resulting functional MRI images showed that three primary areas of the brain lit up: the hippocampus, insula and caudate. The hippocampus is in the temporal lobe and filters sensory data to store it in short-term or long-term memory. The insula, which is located on either side of the brain, helps to control your social emotions by interpreting what physical state you are in. The caudate nucleus, which is in the striatrum in the center of the brain, helps to control the body's dopamine reward system. Dopamine, a feel-good hormone, also is produced during gambling, sex and drug activity.
