For more effective learning and thinking, we
should use the strengths that are found on both sides of the brain. We each
have all the
capabilities we have studied today. We just have developed some
more than others. We can be factual and analytical as well as creative
and artistic. We merely have to understand that we are capable and
can develop our other characteristics. We can develop the lesser
preferred half by doing some of the following:
Read poetry |
Write something imaginative |
Daydream |
Dance, e.g. aerobic |
Play music |
Learn photography |
Invent |
Go bird watching |
Watch people |
Do volunteer/church work |
In general, those individuals who have left brain preference
can more
fully develop right brain characteristics by spending time focusing
on
people, emotions, movement, creativity - things they might consider
frivolous.
