Brain crossover

[milo]

I think I was taking this from a different angle than you were, Leanne. I was less interested in 'rich brain activity' and more interested in exercises that suggest the two sides of the brain actually have two different personalities. The left side, controlling all communication is the one that tends to define a person's personality. There is a procedure called a corpus callosotomy which actually separates both sides of the brain and they continue to operate independently of each other. What becomes interesting is that certain exercises suggest the right side exists as a separate personality that can be communicated with through mirror writing with the left hand. I was more interested in just handing my other side a pen to see if it had anything interesting to say.

I think it may be too late to try 'stimulating' my brain . . .
