Brain Hemispheres
Right Brain vs Left Brain
What are brain hemispheres?
There are two sides of the brain, the left, then the right. Brain hemisphere focuses on which each side controls. The nerve fibers that connects both hemispheres is called corpus callosum. (the corpus callosum is not shown in the picture)
The Right Side
The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body and also the following:
*visual *imagination *intuition *feelings *thinking in pictures *creativity *art *music
The Left Side
The left side of your brain controls the right side of your body and the following:
*language *writing *math *logic *thinking in words *discipline *reading *speaking
Both Sides
Even though both sides control different things there are still similarities.
*movement *vision *hearing *memory
The Brain Reference Indicator Test
This basically is a test to see which side of your brain is dominant. My result was 5.32. Meaning both sides of my brain are equally used. My right side is slightly more dominant.
