The left brain is verbal, logical and analytical
06.11.09
The left and right sides of the brain do not function as mirror images of each other in the way our lungs and kidneys do. In fact, they are quite different. Researchers have discovered that each side of the brain has itsown area of specialization. Each hemisphere has its own “way of knowing” and processes information differently. In a normal brain, the two sides work together by means of the corpus callosum, that four inch, pencil shaped bundle of nerves cut in the patients who had epilepsy. Even though we use both sides of our brain, some of us are left brain dominant and some of us are right brain dominant.
The left brain specializes in all those areas that help people fit into the way our society and especially our school system is structured today. The left brain is verbal, logical and analytical. It put things in order, lines them up, counts them, and makes step by step plans. The left side of the brain controls the right side of the body. To remember what the left brain does, imagine a bold, block L straight, orderly and no nonsense.
