Abstract

The mind has always been an object of wonder and study. Over the years there have been great scientific advances to bring us closer to its understanding, but there is still much to investigate. It would be necessary to recognize that, in addition to the intricacies of the neuroanatomy and physiology of the brain, the mind manifests itself in the light of what each individual is, so that these expressions have particular tints derived from who each person is and the sociocultural scenario that underlies them.
