LEFT BRAIN & RIGHT BRAIN
In the late 1960’s psycho-biologist Roger W. Sperry discovered the human brain has two very distinct ways of thinking. Although we have one brain, our brain has two hemispheres that send messages back and forth to each other.
The right-side of the brain is:
- intuitive and emotional
- this hemisphere guides the decisions of the creative thinker that are made throughout the day
The left-side of the brain is:
- sequential, time-oriented
- tells one how to think and what to believe and what choice to make
The middle-brain of the brain is:
- more flexible than either the right/left brain thinkers
- this person might be that rare Mathematician/Artist
- when it comes to decision making middle-brain thinking people sometimes get confused because their brain bounces between the right/left preferences during decision making
Don’t worry, we all use both hemispheres of our brains! But, it is a good idea to exercise and strengthen the weaker side of our brain. Crossword puzzles, research on a desired subject or listening to a lecture will help stimulate the left side of the brain.
