Getting deeper into my last post and into Betty Edwards´ book, I have been completing some of the exercises she propose in order to get the left hemysphere bored with some tasks and to get the right hemysphere doing the whole job.
It was about drawing a picture in a particular way, watching it upside down.
While doing the job, I took some notes into a mindmap about how I was feeling under this "right hempysphere ruling" state.
Most part of these experiences are commonly perceived by everyone, but they are also extraordinary good to identify such a state.

Getting experiences accessing the right hempysphere

Using your "righty" friend
I am currently reading Betty Edwards' Drawing with the right side of the brain and it is being a quite interesting book with fascinating theories and exercises. I reached the book to improve my drawing ability, which I would say, it has been since I was a child a disability.
From the first page you find quite interesting and solidly based theories about the brain, it is composition (some had been treated in this blog between right and left parts of the brain) and how every part works and how to stimulate every part.
One thought quite interesting is the existing stuck in the brain functionality study (in comparison with other subjects) mostly due to the fact that the brain is the only part of the universe which is observing and investigating itself.
Another quite interesting topic is how to get into the right part operation and the "synthoms" you get by being working into that part (time absense, lower cardiac rhythm,...).
