The left hand is responsible for the right hemisphere. Dark triad

Every creative person thinks about how to exercise the right hemisphere of the brain sooner or later, because it is precisely he who is responsible for all the most sublime and spiritual in a person: art, thinking, fantasy and intuition. You will learn about how to develop the right hemisphere of the brain from this article.

My son, like any teenager, began to sit up for computer games. I don’t particularly forbid him, but recently I began to notice that he had ceased to orientate normally on the road, confusing the parties. Completely stopped doing early favorite painting. In general, completely immersed in the computer. She did not turn a blind eye to this, climbed into the Internet in search of useful information. I found information about the development of the right hemisphere and decided to try several exercises with the child. While the result pleases: the child has more inspiration for doing what he loves, and I finally got involved in art by visiting an art gallery in my city. In general, really useful exercises, not with instant, but quite noticeable effect.

Read more about the right hemisphere

The hemispheres of our brain work in concert. The left is responsible for the adoption by the brain of the so-called “speech” information, its processing. Thanks to the work of the left hemisphere, a person has the ability to write and read, memorize information, logic, analysis, and formulate conclusions.

The right hemisphere is responsible for the adoption of visual information by the brain. Thanks to him, people fantasize, dream, compose poems, songs, paint pictures and create sculptures. Just like the left, the right hemisphere processes information, but can consider the problem from different angles, suggesting a creative approach to solving. All functions of the right hemisphere:

  • responsible for emotions;
  • responsible for imagination and imagination;
  • responsible for the development in a person of abilities and inclinations to art;
  • subjugates the movements of the left half of the body;
  • inculcates musical abilities, distinguishes tempo, melodies;
  • responsible for the orientation of a person in space, on the ground;
  • understands the means of expression and humor;
  • perceives someone else's voice, highlighting the timbre and intonation in it;
  • remembers images;
  • responsible for deduction (deriving the truth by collecting one or more assertions, premises);
  • responsible for intuition (the ability to get the right information without analysis);

What gives the development of the right hemisphere of the brain

Despite the fact that in the modern world, the left hemisphere is a priority, which is responsible for working with accurate numbers and knowledge, it is alien to spiritual development. Developing the right hemisphere, a person possesses the ability to see the picture of the world in full, not dividing it into parts. Along with this, the brain perceives various images and symbols.

Well, the main goal of the development of the right hemisphere is to achieve coordinated work in several directions at once.

A person learns to deal with several things at the same time, paying attention even to trifles. A very useful skill in many professions, both in "man-man" and in "man is a sign system."


Reduced right hemisphere activity

Each parent thinks about how to activate the right hemisphere of a child’s brain sooner or later. Modern children began to spend much more time on the Internet, virtual reality, full of entertainment. Through this, their left hemisphere, which is responsible for collecting information and logical thinking, is developing rapidly. In turn, the child ceases to use his speech abilities in the proper amount. In this situation, the right hemisphere of youth, responsible for the development of a creative personality in a person, is suppressed in favor of the left as unnecessary.

Very often in such a situation, parents are at a loss, drag their children to doctors and psychologists, looking for all possible problems like neurological diseases. Few people suspect, but such methods can make it even worse - the child can become isolated in himself, stop learning such skills as reading and writing. To help the child with the development of both hemispheres, you need to take into account individual characteristics, choose the right curriculum with the optimal pace.

How is the development of the right hemisphere?

How to make the right hemisphere work? Creative people quite often ask this question, because what they do is directly related to the right hemisphere of the brain. Its development is also associated with art. It develops when listening to music, when we dream or dream, meditate or do other things that involve our imagination.

You can independently develop the right hemisphere by actively participating in creative activities: writing poetry and literary works, teaching singing and dancing, drawing and others. There are also techniques for improving the abilities of the right hemisphere, in which we fully utilize the hemisphere to achieve maximum effect.


How to develop the right brain exercises

The brain is guarded by the bones of the skull from damage, is part of the central nervous system. The main function of the brain is the control and regulation of all processes occurring in the body. All that a person feels, all his actions come from the brain. With its damage or dysfunction, the ability to act and emotions, reactions to external stimuli is lost.

  1. The easiest way to develop the right hemisphere is to engage in art, visit art galleries, and join the beautiful.
  2. The second way is to increase the load on the hemisphere by performing standard tasks using the side of the body controlled by the hemisphere. In the case of the right hemisphere, the left side of the body. Just do your usual things, the old one should use your left hand and foot more: if you are right-handed, try to draw with your left hand, at dinner take a spoon or fork in your left hand. You can also jump on your left foot, play soccer, using your left foot to kick the ball instead of the usual right foot.
  3. Hemisphere Awareness Exercise. The left hand touches the nose, and the right hand of the left ear. Then we release the nose and ear, clap our hands and change the position: the left hand takes the right ear, and the right hand - the nose.
  4. Drawing by the right hemisphere of the brain. Take a sheet of paper and put it in front of you. In both hands, take a pencil and with both hands try to draw simple symbols using the mirror effect: one image should be a mirror image of the other.
  5. Finger Exercise. Alternately form a “ring” with your thumb and the rest. Do the exercise first on one arm, then on the other, and then on two at the same time.
  6. Another finger exercise. Clench both palms into fists. On your right hand, straighten your thumb, on your left - the index finger. Change the position - on the right hand straighten the index, on the left - large. Do this exercise, increasing the pace.
  7. Work with sound. Sit in a quiet place, turn on your favorite song, close your eyes and focus. Try to recognize every word in the song, just hear the melody.
  8. The development of the imagination. Closing your eyes, imagine that in front of you is a white sheet of paper. Imagine how your name is displayed in black ink on it. Now imagine how the ink gradually changes its color, from black to blue, from blue to red, from red to any other color. You can use the hemisphere even more, imagining how the white background, together with the letters, also changes its color.
  9. Tactile sensations. Imagine that you have a certain dish. You eat it. Restore in your head its taste and smell, your association with this food. The same thing can be done with smells and with familiar people, remembering the timbre of a person’s voice, his laughter and gait.

The first row is an alphabet that is familiar to everyone since childhood. The second is the designation of the hands. L - the left hand rises to the left side, P - the right hand rises to the right side, B - both hands up. When pronouncing the alphabet, follow the appropriate letter movement.

In addition, the cerebellum is also responsible for regulation   balance and muscle tone, while working with muscle memory.

The ability of the cerebellum to adapt to any changes in the perception of information in the shortest possible time is also interesting. It is understood that even with visual impairment (an experiment with an invertoscope), a person in just a few days adapts to a new state and can again coordinate the position of the body, relying on the cerebellum.

Frontal lobes

Frontal lobes   - This is a kind of dashboard of the human body. She supports him in an upright position, allowing him to move freely.

In addition, it is due to frontal lobes   “Calculated” the curiosity, initiative, activity and independence of a person at the time of making any decisions.

Also one of the main functions of this department is critical self-esteem. Thus, this makes the frontal lobes a semblance of conscience, at least in relation to social markers of behavior. That is, any social deviations that are unacceptable in society do not pass the frontal lobe control, and, accordingly, are not performed.

Any injuries in this part of the brain are fraught with:

  • behavioral disorders;
  • mood changes;
  • general inadequacy;
  • the meaninglessness of actions.

Another function of the frontal lobes is arbitrary decisions, and their planning. Also, the development of various skills depends on the activity of this department. The dominant share of this department is responsible for the development of speech, and its further control. Equally important is the ability to think abstractly.

Pituitary

Pituitary   often called a brain appendage. Its functions are reduced to the production of hormones responsible for puberty, development and functioning in general.

In fact, the pituitary gland is a kind of chemical laboratory in which it is decided exactly what you will become in the process of growing up the body.

Coordination

Coordination, as a skill to navigate in space and not to touch objects with different parts of the body in a random order, is controlled by the cerebellum.

In addition, the cerebellum manages brain functions such as kinetic awareness   - in general, this is the highest level of coordination, allowing you to navigate in the surrounding space, noting the distance to objects and calculating the ability to move in free zones.

Speech

Such an important function as speech is managed by several departments at once:

  • Dominant part of the frontal lobe   (aforementioned), which is responsible for the control of oral speech.
  • Temporal lobes   are responsible for speech recognition.

Basically, we can say that the speech is responsible left hemisphere   the brain, if you do not take into account the division of the finite brain into various lobes and departments.

Emotions

Emotional regulation   - This is the area under the control of the hypothalamus, along with a number of other important functions.

In fact, emotions are not created in the hypothalamus, but it is there that the effect on endocrine system   person. After a certain set of hormones has been developed, a person feels something, however, the gap between the orders of the hypothalamus and the production of hormones can be completely insignificant.

Prefrontal cortex

Functions   prefrontal cortex   lie in the field of mental and motor activity of the body, which is consistent with future goals and plans.

In addition, the prefrontal cortex plays a significant role in creating complex thought patterns,
  action plans and algorithms.

home feature   that this part of the brain does not “see” the difference between the regulation of the internal processes of the body and following the social framework of external behavior.

When you are faced with a difficult choice, which appeared mainly due to your own conflicting thoughts - thank for this   prefrontal cortex brain. It is there that differentiation and / or integration of various concepts and objects is performed.

Also in this department is projected result of your actions, and an adjustment is made in comparison with the result that you want to get.

Thus, we are talking about volitional control, concentration on the subject of work and emotional regulation. That is, if you are constantly distracted during work, you cannot concentrate, which means that the conclusion reached prefrontal cortex, was disappointing, and you will not be able to achieve the desired result in this way.

The last proven function of the prefrontal cortex is one of the substrates. short term memory.

Memory

Memory   - This is a very broad concept, which includes descriptions of higher mental functions that allow you to reproduce previously acquired knowledge, skills and abilities at the right time. All higher animals possess it, however, it is most developed, naturally, in humans.

It is practically impossible to determine exactly which part of the brain is responsible for memory (long-term or short-term). Physiological studies show that the areas responsible for storing memories are distributed over the entire surface of the cortex of the cerebral hemispheres.

Mechanism   the action of memory is this - in the brain, a certain combination of neurons is excited in a strict sequence. These sequences and combinations are called neural networks. Previously, the theory was more common that individual neurons were responsible for the memories.

Brain diseases

The brain is the same organ as all others in the human body, and therefore also susceptible to various diseases. The list of such diseases is quite extensive.

It will be easier to consider it if you divide them into several groups:

  1. Viral diseases. The most common of these are viral encephalitis (muscle weakness, severe drowsiness, coma, confusion of thoughts and difficult thinking in general), encephalomyelitis (fever, vomiting, impaired coordination and motility of the limbs, dizziness, loss of consciousness), meningitis (high fever, general weakness, vomiting), etc.
  2. Tumor diseases. Their number is also quite large, although not all of them are malignant. Any tumor appears as the final stage of failure in the production of cells. Instead of the usual death and subsequent replacement, the cell begins to multiply, filling everything free from healthy tissue space. Symptoms of tumors are headaches and cramps. Also, their presence is easily determined by hallucinations from various receptors, confusion, and speech problems.
  3. Neurodegenerative diseases. By general definition, these are also abnormalities in the life cycle of cells in different parts of the brain. So, Alzheimer's disease is described as impaired conduction of nerve cells, which leads to memory loss. Huntington's disease, in turn, is the result of atrophy of the cerebral cortex. There are other options. The general symptomatology is as follows - problems with memory, thinking, gait and motor skills, the presence of cramps, tremors, cramps or pains. Also read our pro article.
  4. Vascular disease   also quite different, although, in fact, they boil down to disturbances in the structure of blood vessels. So, aneurysm is nothing more than a protrusion of the wall of a particular vessel - which does not make it less dangerous. Atherosclerosis is a narrowing of blood vessels in the brain, but vascular dementia is characterized by their complete destruction.

Hello dear readers of my blog! Today we will talk about the left hemisphere of the brain, which is responsible for logical thinking and speech, as well as discuss ways to develop and activate its functions. In a previous article I described his “brother” - who is more responsible for creative abilities. By balancing the work of both parts, you can achieve great results and success in all areas of life, so this is an important thing for almost all people.

The left brain is sometimes called dominant. Firstly, because in 90% of people it is more developed than the right one, and secondly, the role of its mental functions in human activity is difficult to overestimate. Let's consider them in more detail.

Left hemisphere functions

Thinking

Both hemispheres participate in thinking, but they are responsible for different aspects. So the left hemisphere, in contrast to the right, which considers the situation as a whole, processes the information sequentially. It analyzes each individual fact and gives a logical assessment.

Verbal speech

One of the main functions of the left hemisphere is verbal speech. This is our ability to speak, read and write. In people with a damaged left side of the brain, a violation of speech functions and difficulty in perceiving information occurs. People with well-developed left-sided thinking are given easier study of foreign languages.

Score

The recognition of characters and numbers is also responsible for the left hemisphere. With it, we solve mathematical problems and equations, we can remember dates and phone numbers.

Establishing a causal relationship

Thanks to the left hemisphere, people are able to trace cause and effect relationships and draw conclusions. Therefore, the left-sided mindset is also called analytical. People who are dominated by such thinking often go to work as investigators, analysts, etc.

Positive emotions

In recent psychological studies, it was found that the left hemisphere is responsible for positive emotions, and the right for negative ones.

Right side control

The left hemisphere controls the work of the right side of the body, and vice versa. That is, when we write with our right hand or perform some other actions, this means that the signal came from the left side of the brain.

Properties of left-sided thinking

The functions listed above, the left hemisphere performs in all people. But he also has the properties of a narrower specialization, which prevail in people with left-sided thinking. They are characterized by such qualities as determination, logic, practicality, quick learner, organization.

In an article on the right hemisphere, I talked about the fact that it is responsible for creativity. But if people with right-sided thinking, the left hemisphere is poorly developed, it is difficult for them to realize their ideas, due to inconsistency of actions and lack of determination. Therefore, the harmonization of the entire brain is very important.

Left hemisphere activation

There are special exercises that help turn on the left hemisphere. But even if it already dominates you, extra training will not hurt.

Problem solving

Mathematical and logical problems perfectly develop the left hemisphere of the brain. You can start with simple ones, and then move on to more complex ones.

Crossword puzzles are good, especially Sudoku, as they are based on numbers, and logic and analysis are needed to solve them.

Physical exercise

To activate the left hemisphere, you need to use the right side of the body. For example, perform the usual actions with your right hand (write, brush your teeth, stir tea). For right-handed people, this will not be difficult, but left-handed people will have more difficulty.

Also doing regular exercises, pay more attention to the right side of the body. For example, you can jump on the right foot, do tilts to the right side, etc.

Self massage

On the human body there are many points that are responsible for various organs, including the brain. On the basis of the big toes is the point responsible for the cerebellum, and under it are the points of the cerebral hemispheres. By massaging the point under the thumb of the right foot, you activate the left hemisphere.

Fine motor skills

Fine motor skills are very useful for developing the hemispheres. There is a special exercise for this. Lean the tip of the little finger of the right hand to the tip of the thumb of the left hand, and the little finger of the left to the thumb of the right. Scroll the brushes so that the position of the fingers swaps. Then the same thing needs to be done with the ring and index fingers.

But the best tool for this is sorting out the rosary with your right hand. Then you immediately perform 3 functions:

  • activate the left hemisphere
  • meditate
  • massage the points on the fingertips

Pain in the left hemisphere

Many people have a headache localized on the left side of the head. The most common disease that causes such pain is migraine. Specialists identify the following reasons:

  • physical and psychological exhaustion;
  • dehydration of the body;
  • stress;
  • poor circulation of the brain

To relieve the symptoms of migraine, you need to drink plenty of water and give the body a rest. Also meditation can help. Pranayama is especially good. Breathing exercises will help saturate the brain with oxygen and improve blood circulation.

But it must be borne in mind that the pain in the left side of the head can also indicate other diseases that are more serious than migraine, so if you do not know what their cause is, then it is better to consult a doctor.

I told you about the functions of the left hemisphere and its activation, but for more efficient brain function it is necessary to develop both of its parts. And which hemisphere is leading for you, you can write in the comments to the article. I will also be glad if you share your knowledge about brain activation exercises. Regards, Ruslan Zvirkun.

Perhaps the most amazing organ in the human body is the brain. Scientists have not yet thoroughly studied it, although considerable steps have been taken in this direction. This article will talk about what the brain is responsible for and how it can be developed.

basic information

At the very beginning, it is worth saying that it consists of two hemispheres - the right and the left. These parts are separated by the cerebral cortex, however, information is exchanged through the so-called. For clarity of the work of both hemispheres, a rather simple analogy with a computer can be drawn. So, in this case, the left side of the brain is responsible for the sequential execution of tasks, that is, it is the main processor. The right hemisphere can perform several tasks at the same time, and it can be compared with an additional processor that is not the leading one.

Hemisphere work

In short, the left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for analysis and logic, while the right hemisphere is responsible for images, dreams, fantasies, intuition. For each person, both parts of this organ should function uniformly, but always one of the hemispheres will work more actively, and the other as an auxiliary element. From this we can make a simple conclusion that creative individuals have a more developed right brain, while business people have a better left. Let us examine in more detail what functions the left hemisphere of the brain performs.

Verbal aspect

The left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for linguistic and verbal It is it that controls speech, and also manifests itself in the ability to write and read. Considering the work of the brain in this vein, it is also worth clarifying that this hemisphere perceives all words literally.

Thinking

As already mentioned above, the left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for the analysis of facts, as well as their logical processing. In this case, it is the information received that is processed. Emotions and value judgments do not enter into the work here. I would also like to say that the left hemisphere processes all the information sequentially, completing the tasks one after another, and not in parallel, as the right hemisphere can “do”.

The control

It is also worth mentioning that the left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for the activity and work of the human body. That is, if someone raised his right arm or leg, this would mean that it was the left hemisphere of the brain that sent the team.

Maths

What else is the left cerebral hemisphere responsible for? It is it that is involved if it is necessary to solve certain mathematical problems. An interesting fact: it is this part of the brain that recognizes various symbols and numbers.

About people

What can be said in general about people in whom the left hemisphere of the brain is more active and developed? So, such personalities are organized, they love order, always follow all deadlines and schedules. They easily perceive information by ear and almost always reach their goal, as their actions are subject to common sense, and not to impulses of the soul. However, one cannot say about such personalities that art is alien to them. Not at all, however, in creative activity, these people will choose what has form and meaning, abandoning abstraction and understatement.

About development

Often people are interested in the question of how to develop the left hemisphere of the brain. It is worth saying that this is possible. It is enough just to periodically train your "computer". So, the following exercises may be helpful for this:

  1. Physical activity on the body is closely related to the work of the brain. If you devote more time to the development of the right half of the body, respectively, the left hemisphere of the brain will work more actively.
  2. Since the left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for the logic and solving mathematical problems, more time needs to be devoted to this particular activity. You need to start with simpler mathematical exercises, gradually raising the bar. The activity of this hemisphere will undoubtedly lead to its further development.
  3. Pretty simple advice on how to develop the left hemisphere of the brain, is the need to solve crosswords. In this case, the person most often acts analytically. And this leads to activation of the left half of the brain.
  4. Well, of course, you can pick up specialized tests developed by psychologists that help to activate and develop the desired hemisphere of the human brain.

Harmonious work

It should be mentioned that both hemispheres of the brain must be developed simultaneously. After all, only a diversified person is talented, more competitive in the labor market and unique in its capabilities. Moreover, there are people called ambidextras. Both hemispheres of the brain are equally developed in them. They can perform all actions equally well with both their right and left hands. Such people do not have a pronounced, leading hemisphere, both parts of the brain are equally involved in the work. This state can be achieved through hard work and training.

Cause of pain

It happens that a person has a left brain hemisphere. Why is this happening? The most common cause is migraine. In this case, the pain is localized precisely on the left side of the head. The duration of this condition also varies - from several hours to a couple of days. Among the main causes of this condition, scientists distinguish the following:

  1. Physical fatigue.
  2. Stress.
  3. Heat and dehydration.
  4. Tension of the crescent septum of the brain.
  5. Diseases of the trigeminal nerve, its inflammation.
  6. Insomnia.

However, if a person periodically has pain in the left hemisphere of the brain, it is still worth seeking medical advice. After all, this symptom is far from always harmless. Often, headaches in a certain part of the head indicate tumors, thrombosis, or other serious problems that can threaten not only the health, but also the life of the patient.

Hemorrhagic stroke

Hemorrhagic stroke is an intracerebral hemorrhage. What then happens to a person? What are the consequences of hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of the brain?

  1. Disorders of motor activity. If a hemorrhage has occurred in the left side of the brain, the right side of the patient’s body will be affected. Difficulty may occur when walking, coordination. Unilateral movement disorders in medicine are called hemiparesis.
  2. Speech impairment. As already mentioned above, it is the left hemisphere of the brain that is responsible for the perception of symbols and numbers, as well as for reading and writing. When hemorrhage occurs precisely in this part of the brain, a person with difficulty begins not only to speak, but also to perceive the words of those around him. There are also problems with writing and reading.
  3. Processing information. In case of hemorrhage in the left part of the head, a person ceases to think logically, process information. Understanding becomes inhibited.
  4. Other symptoms not related to the activity of the left hemisphere. This can be pain, psychological disturbances (irritability, depression, mood swings), problems with bowel movements and urination.

Disability after hemorrhage is high and accounts for approximately 75% of all cases. If in time it is not possible to determine the cause of this problem, a repeated hemorrhage is possible, which can even lead to the death of the patient.

Left hemisphere

Sometimes people are interested in how to disable the left hemisphere of the brain, can this be done at all? The answer is simple: you can. Moreover, each person does this daily, going to bed. During sleep, it is the right hemisphere that activates, and the left fades out. If we talk about the period of wakefulness, then the left hemisphere is always at work and helps people think logically and analyze the information received. It is worth saying that it is impossible to completely turn off the work of the left hemisphere during its vigorous activity (without the intervention of special tools and psychiatrists). Yes, and you do not need to do this at all. It is best to establish a balance between the right and left hemisphere, which will make the life of an individual better and better.

Simple exercises

Having figured out why the left hemisphere of the brain hurts and what it is responsible for, you need to give an example of several simple exercises that will help to train the human brain evenly.

  1. You need to sit comfortably and focus on one point. After a minute, you should try to consider those objects that are located to the left of the selected target. With peripheral vision, you need to consider as many details as possible. Next, study the items on the right. If you want to train only the left side of the brain, you need to consider objects that are on the right hand from the selected point.
  2. To activate both hemispheres, you need to alternately right and left knee touch the opposite elbow. If you perform the exercise slowly, you can also train the vestibular apparatus.
  3. To activate both parts of the brain, you just need to massage your ears. You need to do this from top to bottom. It is necessary to do manipulations about 5 times. If you want to train only the left hemisphere, massage the right ear.

The human brain is the main department of the central nervous system, it is located in the cranial cavity. The brain contains a huge number of neurons, between which there are synaptic connections. These connections allow neurons to form electrical impulses that control the full functioning of the human body.

The human brain is not fully understood. Scientists believe that in humans, only part of the neurons are involved in the process of life, in connection with which many people do not show their possible abilities.

Left cerebral hemisphere and related functions

The left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for verbal information, it is responsible for the linguistic abilities of a person, controls speech, the ability to write and read. Thanks to the work of the left hemisphere, a person is able to remember various facts, events, dates, names, their sequence and how they will look in writing. The left hemisphere is responsible for the analytical thinking of a person, thanks to this, the logic and analysis of facts are developed, as well as the manipulation of numbers and mathematical formulas. In addition, the left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for the sequence of the process of information processing (phased processing).

Thanks to the left hemisphere, all information received by a person is processed, classified, analyzed, and the left hemisphere establishes causal relationships and formulates conclusions.


The right hemisphere of the brain and its functions

The right hemisphere of the brain is responsible for processing the so-called non-verbal information, that is, for processing information expressed in images and symbols, not words.

The right hemisphere is responsible for the imagination, with its help a person is able to fantasize, dream, and also write poetry and prose. Here are the human abilities for initiative and art (music, drawing, etc.). The right hemisphere is responsible for parallel processing of information, that is, like a computer, it allows a person to simultaneously analyze several different streams of information, make decisions and solve problems, considering the problem simultaneously as a whole and from different angles.

Thanks to the right hemisphere of the brain, we establish intuitive connections between images, understand various metaphors and perceive humor. The right hemisphere allows a person to recognize complex images that cannot be decomposed into elementary components, for example, the process of recognizing people's faces and the emotions that these faces display.


Synchronized operation of both hemispheres

The intuitive operation of the right hemisphere of the brain is based on facts that were analyzed by the left hemisphere. It should be noted that the work of both hemispheres of the brain is equally important for humans. With the help of the left hemisphere, the world is simplified and analyzed, and thanks to the right - it is perceived as it really is.

If there weren’t the right, “creative” hemisphere of the brain, people would turn into emotionless, calculating machines that could only adapt the world to their livelihoods.

It should be noted that the right hemisphere controls the work of the left half of the human body, and the left hemisphere controls the right half of the body. That is why it is believed that a person who has a better developed left half of the body (“left-handed”) is better developed and creative abilities. By training the corresponding part of the body, we train the hemisphere of the brain that is responsible for these actions.


The predominant number of people is dominated by one of the hemispheres: right or left. When a child is born, he evenly takes advantage of the opportunities that are inherent in him initially in different hemispheres. However, in the process of development, growth and learning, one of the hemispheres begins to develop more actively. So, in schools where there is a mathematical bias, little time is devoted to creativity, and in art and music schools, children hardly develop logical thinking.

However, nothing prevents one from training both hemispheres of the brain. So, Leonardo da Vinci, who regularly trained, perfectly mastered both his right hand and his left. He was not only a creative person, but also an analyst, whose logical thinking was perfectly developed, and in completely different areas of activity.
