It is known that the brain consists of the right and left hemispheres and to them pass the neural pathways from the organs that have sensitivity. The right hemisphere adjusts the left side of the body, the left side corresponds to the right side.
The left hemisphere divides the picture into parts, details, analyzes them, arranges schemes, cause-effect relationships. It works quite slowly and specializes in verbal processing of information. It is in it are the speech centers.
The right hemisphere covers the picture completely, considering a holistic image, processes information contained in images and symbols. The right side of the brain acts quickly.
The left hemisphere is considered inductive, analytical, algorithmic, consistent. He is characterized by logical and rational thinking. It determines the ability to write and read.
The right hemisphere is considered deductive, emotional and holistic. He is characterized by creative, intuitive and imaginative thinking. It helps us to dream and dream. Most of the outstanding creators - musicians, great artists, poets, etc. - people with the predominant right hemisphere.
In the modern world, the "left-hemisphere" people prevail and in our culture the training is designed for them.
Exercises for the development of the right hemisphere of the brain
The development of the cerebral hemispheres opens up great opportunities for each of us. Therefore, although sometimes it is worth trying to work with them.
- Visualization. Close your eyes and imagine a sheet of paper with your name written on it. Imagine how the letters change color, at first they are red, then they turn blue, then yellow. Similarly, mentally change the color of the sheet. Touch your name, smell it, taste it, listen to how it sounds.
- The development of the right hemisphere of the brain is facilitated by drawing. Take an album sheet and two pencils in each hand. Draw mirror-symmetric images with both hands. You should feel the relaxation of the eyes and your hands, because the well-coordinated work of the two hemispheres improves the functioning of the brain.
- "The nose-ear." With your right hand grab your nose and your left ear in your right ear, we simultaneously release both hands, do cotton and change hands, so that the left holds on to the nose, and your right for your left ear.
- "The Ring". Quickly alternately, connect all the fingers of one hand in the ring with your thumb. Perform first with each hand separately, then with both hands together.
- A good exercise for the development of the cerebral hemispheres is to do something immediately with both hands or to make the usual actions with the other hand: for right-handed people - with the left hand, for left-handed ones - with the right hand.
Developing the hemispheres of the brain, you will find new facets. In the "left hemisphere" person, with time new ideas will appear, the "right hemisphere" person will be able to realize all his plans.
