This paper presents a novel model entitled “The Duality of the Hormonal World and the Energy-Based Consciousness World” to explain human behavior. The model distinguishes between two fundamental drivers in decision-making and human experience: those arising from brain secretions (such as dopamine, adrenaline, and serotonin) and those stemming from flows guided by consciousness or the soul, which operate beyond biological structures.
In this framework, consciousness functions as a non-material and intelligent force that can influence the brain, utilizing stored data for either growth or decline.
After reviewing the theoretical background in psychology and neuroscience, this paper outlines the characteristics of two “behavioral worlds”: the hormonally driven world (rooted in reward, survival, and immediate pleasure) and the energy-driven consciousness world (rooted in meaning, inner growth, and higher frequencies such as love, peace, and creativity). An interdisciplinary approach is then applied to examine the implications of this model in psychotherapy, neuroscience, and practical spirituality.
The aim is to provide a fresh framework for a deeper understanding of the sources of human behavior and to create a foundation for future empirical research.
