our centre does work with concepts of right / left brain (lateralisation) and we find that left brain is the concepts part - big picture - while right brain is details. and that there are complementary areas in each - so when you are considering options towards a decision (say, which meal to order from a lengthy menu) your right brain is most active, then when you actually make the decision, this is the realm of the left brain and the right is actually inhibited by the left's activity. our research, though, is more directed at unlocking the skills associated with literalness... and enhancing creativity
'logical' and 'creative' are terms that seem to best, and most greatly, occur in an individual utilising both hemispheres.
as for becoming ambidextrous, dunno how successful you might be, but it seems that there is an inherent disposition for about 80-85% of people to favour their right side for manipulation - drawing, throwing, etc - so be 'right handed' and this is consistent with the left brain being 'in control' (as it were) for most of the time you employ your handedness... all very interesting. a colleague has a site that gives some information on interhemispheric switching.
good luck - i rekkun you should be able to do a pretty reasonable job of mimicing your talents at right handedness with your left if you try hard enough and in the right way, whatever that might be... but i wonder if it can become second nature.
that said, people lose limbs all the time and do well at recouping skills with their remaining side. |
