Briefly define wise mind, emotion mind, and reason mind

The emotional mind is used when feelings control a person’s thoughts and behavior. They might act impulsively with little regard for consequences. 

The wise mind refers to a balance between the reasonable and emotional halves. They are able to recognize and respect their feelings, while responding to them in a rational manner.

 A person uses their reasonable mind when they approach a situation intellectually. They plan and make decisions based on fact.
