The front and back of the brain work together, with information flowing between them. Before we make a decision or take action, the prefrontal cortex is involved in considering both the information it is receiving from the back of the brain (perceptions), as well as stored memories or experiences that relate to it. The prefrontal cortex helps make a prediction of what will happen and initiates the appropriate body movement. As the brain perceives the result of the action made by the body, it either reinforces the brain’s existing neural networks of understanding about how the world works, or begins to create new ones. The perception-action cycle is this continuous flow of information and action between the brain and the world around it. On and on it goes: sense, predict, act, adjust. Sense, predict, act, adjust.
