In today's rapidly changing world, left hemisphere functioning is no longer enough.
The jobs of tomorrow will require creative and intuitive thinking and action.
Successful individuals can and must learn how to integrate and use a fully
functional brain.
Each of the hemispheres of our brain have prescribed
functions or specialities. In this manner the brain
avoids duplication of function. Our hemispheres always
work together so that we will experience a combination
of right and left hemisphere in everything we do. There
is, however, a tendency for one hemisphere to be dominant.
This dominance effects how we respond to new experiences
and situations,. Armed with the knowledge of how we
use our brains, we are better equipped to know the
style of learning most effective to us.
"Because of the fault of our fathers
and mothers, in general we make use of only one
half
of our body for certain acts, and one half of our
brain for certain other acts...If children were
trained to develop both brain halves, we would
have a sturdier and healthier race, both mentally
and physically."

If you grew up like most of us, in a traditional public
school system, then chances are high that the left
side of your brain has received much more attention
and exercise than the more creative and intuitive right
side. The role of public schools has been to prepare
students for jobs. Children are trained to listen and
follow instructions, and to perform repetitive tasks.
They are not taught how to think by or for themselves.
To do so would simply obstruct the students ability
to follow instructions and do their job.
"IQ vs Intelligence: Which Is More
Important?
There
are 3 main ways in which your overall intelligence
is more important than your IQ.
First, while
there is some correlation between high IQ and
academic
or career success, there
are other factors deemed to be more important,
such as motivation, mindset, creativity, emotional
intelligence, attitude, and plain old hard
work, common sense, and self-discipline.
Second, even if you take active measures to
increase your IQ, IQ scores tend to stay stable
over a lifetime, whereas it is possible to
increase your intelligence and cognitive abilities
fairly quickly and dramatically.
And finally, a high IQ is no guarantee of
success.
It’s not unusual for people with
high IQs to struggle in life, while those
with average
IQs thrive." Deane Alban |
"There are two types of intelligence: crystallized
intelligence and fluid intelligence.
Crystallized intelligence is your ability to utilize
information, skills, and experience already learned
-- basically, it's cerebral knowledge. This tends
to build as you age, and is emphasized in most Western
cultures (especially since it's easily tested on
standardized exams).
Fluid intelligence, by contrast, is your ability
to identify patterns, solve novel problems, and use
logic in new situations. It's not about how much
you know; it's about your ability to be creative,
aware, innovative, and visionary.
It's relatively easy to improve your crystallized
knowledge: read, listen to podcasts, collect more
facts, learn. But fluid intelligence isn't like that.
It's not about facts and figures; it's about your
capacity to take something you've never seen before
and work with it -- to be ingenious."
In today's rapidly changing world, left hemisphere
functioning is no longer enough. The jobs of tomorrow
will require creative and intuitive thinking and
action. Successful individuals can and must learn
how to integrate and use a fully functional brain.
If you think what you always think,
and do what you always do, then you'll get what you always get...

The corpus callosum, the bundle of nerve
fibers that connects our brain hemispheres, is thicker
in ambidextrous people. And studies have shown ambidextrous
people (Being ambidextrous technically means equal
with both hands)},to be better able to read people,
see both sides of an issue, and recall details of an
event and their context. Better integration and balance
of the brain hemispheres allows a better kind of thinking.
"By teaching both sides of
the brain, society could look forward to
a wonderful new
world of two-handed, two-brained citizens, with
untold benefits for health, intelligence, handicrafts,
sport, schoolwork, industry, and the military...If
required, one hand shall be writing an original
letter, and the other shall be playing the piano...with
no diminution in the power of concentration."
John Jackson |
In general the left and right hemispheres of your
brain process information in different
ways. We tend to process information using our
dominant side. However, the learning and thinking process
is enhanced when both side of the brain participate
in a balanced manner. This means strengthening your
less dominate
hemisphere of the brain. Listed below are information
processing styles that are characteristically used
by your right or left brain hemisphere.
The left side of the brain processes
information in a linear manner. It processes from
part to whole. It takes pieces, lines them up, and
arranges them in a logical order; then it draws conclusions.
The right brain however, processes from whole to
parts, holistically. It starts with the answer. It
sees the big picture first, not the details. If you
are right-brained, you may have difficulty following
a lecture unless you are given the big picture first.

Here are just a few of the world-class
athletes who have used ambidextrousness to reach
the top of their game:
Mickey Mantle (baseball)
Michael Jordan (basketball)
Phil Mickelson (golf)
Pelé (soccer)
Eli Manning (football)
Michelle Kwan (figure skating)
James J. Jeffries (boxing)
Maria Sharapova (tennis)
Gordie Howe (ice hockey)
OK, but what if you're not a big athlete?
Neither were Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Albert
Einstein, Alexander Fleming, Nikola Tesla, Ludwig

Harry S. Truman, and many others who found advantages
to being ambidextrous. The benefits aren't limited

Those who have
achieved hemispheric synchronization tend to be
more flexible than either the left or the right-brain
folks; , neurologically speaking, you could do
most tasks through either a left-brain or a right-brain
method! You are able to draw on the strengths of
both the right and left hemispheres of your brain
depending upon a given situation. This combination
makes you a creative and flexible thinker.
The whole-brain person is balanced and
usually inconspicuously modest. S/he does not
suffer from the extreme tendencies of a hemisphere
dominant person. S/he has emotions and knows
their origin. S/he is much more conscious of
her/his motivations. Unconscious biases are
much less descructive then in brain hemisphere
domint persons. S/he is creative and logical
at the same time, and creativity emerges from
utilizing all mental capacities. |
Thinking with the whole
brain is a genuine key to life, especially when you
have a big
brain in your head to do creative and logical thinking
with. The brain is the key to the mind, it is not
the whole mind, but just a key to the mind when used
correctly.

But unsurprisingly, drinking excessive amounts of alcohol can reduce IQ
Our
ultimate goal is to live life with a balanced
brain where we capitalize on the unique gifts
of each of our hemispheres.
Bilateral hemispheric synchronization
is a phenomenon which has been attracting the attention
of researchers and clinicians for sometime. It has
been approximately thirty years since a number of
studies showed that adept meditators tended to bring
about a state of phasic hemispheric synchrony while
in deep meditation (see Carrington, 1977). In a classic
and often cited study, Banquet (1973) demonstrated
that advanced TM meditators could indeed achieve
total brain synchrony after minutes of repeating
a mantra. However, even in adept meditators the dominant
brain-wave frequency in which the state of synchrony
takes place is almost impossible to predict and/or
control.
Neurodevelopmental disabilities, including
autism, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder,
dyslexia, and other cognitive impairments,
affect millions of children worldwide, and
some diagnoses seem to be increasing in frequency.
Industrial chemicals that injure the developing
brain are among the known causes for this rise
in prevalence. Source
As of June 2018, a total of 60 studies have
investigated the relationship between fluoride
and human intelligence More |
Banquet (1973) suggested
that during meditation a greater equalization
of the functioning
of the hemispheres tends to take place. This relative
shift in hemispheric dominance (from left-brain dominance
to whole-brain dominance) may result in therapeutic
effects which are likely to enhance mind-body integration
and overall improvements in physical and emotional
health. Because of a reduction in cognitive activities
during moments of whole brain synchrony, it is believed
that negative thinking, self-punitive thoughts and
excessive worrying are apt to slow down and consequently
a reduction in cognitive anxiety is experienced (Carrington,
1977; Sadigh,1991; Schwartz, Davidson, & Goleman,
1978.)
According to Loughborough University’s
Sleep Research Centre, every hour short of
the recommended eight hours per night can knock
one point off your IQ. See the latest Sleepmate |
Delmonte
(1984) suggested that creative intelligence
requires the synthesis
and collaboration
of both the analytic and the spatial/intuitive
halves of the brain.
Again, it
appears that this left-brain-right-brain synthesis
can be achieved almost at will now with binaural
signal generators.
C. Maxwell Cade, in his research
concerning the mind and its states of awareness,
conclude that peak mental functioning is associated
with bilateral hemispheric synchrony. This study
implies that to reach a peak state of performance,
a client must in some way harmonize both sides
of the brain one with the other. However, accomplishing
this task is difficult and time consuming unless
a “secret ingredient” is utilized.
Green and Green (1989) believed that
long term biofeedback and relaxation training resulted
in a harmonious relationship between the two hemispheres
which facilitated control of the autonomic nervous
system. This control can especially be helpful in
the treatment of a variety of stress related and
psychosomatic disorders. The authors also suggested
that such states of bilateral synchrony may indeed
bring about positive changes in psychophysical health
as well as therapeutic alterations in underlying
personality characteristics which may interfere with
healthy growth and development.
The
Use of Light and Sound
Technology with Hypnosis
Ornstein and Thompson (1984) criticized
the Western emphasis on intelligence in terms of
written or spoken word. They believed that perhaps
the reason we have difficulties expanding our standards
of education is because of this overemphasis on the
potentials and abilities of the analytic/verbal brain.
Studies investigating whole-brain synthesis clearly
suggest that human knowledge, intelligence, and well
being may very well be achieved as the two brains
begin to function as one--in unison and in synchrony.
What Yogis have done and practiced
all their life, to train mind and body, so that meditation
is more than sitting still, you can now utilize the
results of up-to-date research in this field. Since
the fifties researchers have studied the practices
of yogis, zen monks and other masters doing extraordinary
(for our perception) feats.
The Clinical Guide to Sound and Light
By Thomas Budzynski, Ph. D.
SECTION
ONE: SELECTED RESEARCH ON SOUND/LIGHT
A few years ago, we had the opportunity
of mapping the cortical activity of an adept
meditator who had been regularly practicing
and teaching TM for approximately fifteen years.
The subject's EEG activity during baseline
showed an asynchronous state throughout the
cortex. The primary cortical activity was that
of high-frequency Alpha activity combined with
some Theta and Beta waves especially concentrated
in the left temporal lobe. Once a stable baseline
was achieved, the subject was asked to practice
his mantra meditation. Shortly after this,
the subject's cortical activity began to slow
down and signs of phasic-bilateral synchrony
became apparent. Within a matter of minutes
the subject's primary cortical activity was
that of low frequency Alpha across the cortex.
This is consistent with similar observations
reported in the literature (i.e. Banquet, 1973).
After the subject stopped meditating, his cortical
activity began to resemble that of the pre-meditation
state Source |
But how can we achieve whole brain
synchrony without needing to become involved in the
prolonged practice of meditation and meditative exercises?
Can such states be induced and maintained by the
use of technology?
Of
course, meditation
is the time honored method for achieving these
results. CES and or Binaural beats can save time
and produce even faster
results.
These
tools have been shown to increase the ability
to pay attention, focus,
concentrate, sleep more soundly,relax, and achieve hemispheric synchronization...

the neurofeedback division of the Association
for
Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback, conducted

in IQ of 23 percent) Source |
As slower brainwaves take over
(also known as being in a delta or theta state),
the brain increases its own plasticity, or ability
to reorganize itself

"Homeostasis can be
defined as the tendency for intrinsic balance
within a system. Application of a range
of CES appears to enhance the Balance of
the biological central nervous system.
A change in one system within the individual
will have correlative effects upon other
systems. Improvements in mood, cognitive
function, self image, shift of Focus ,
control to oneself, and sense of well being
can be measured. When CES works, it enhances
one's ability to handle or deal with situations
that were previously beyond the range of
one's control."

Bio-feedback
There is a relationship between
Stress and the Electrical conductivity
of the skin. This is known as Galvanic
Skin Response or GSR. . More |
Free
Option allows one to measure GSR
Skin conducts electric current
like a Resistor. The resistance of Skin
can vary from 25 Kilo Ohms to 2 Mega Ohms
depending on the Emotional state (This
varies from person to person ).This variation
is due to the changes in the permeability
of the skin. In a normal fully relaxed
person, skin resistance will be around
2 Mega Ohms. This is due to the low permeability
of the skin. Skin offers high resistance
and restricts the current flow. But if
the same person is in stress, his skin
resistance reduces to 25 Kilo Ohms or less
due to leakage of water from the blood
vessels and subsequent sweating. This increases
the electrical conductivity of the skin.
Thus the electrical conductivity of the
skin and Stress are directly related
