Lauren's+A+Whole+New+Mind+Blog

For our next blog, we were instructed to read the Right Brain Rising. In this book the author Daniel Pink suggested that a person's way of thinking should be redirected, to both the left and the right side, not just one side alone. We also learned of how Sperry changed the way the world viewed the brain by proving that one side of the brain is not superior to the other. The right side of the brain is the creative side and the left is the logical. While I worked on my blog, I found that I am a mixed thinker. I am a musician, a writer, and a logical-thinker. Unfortunately, like I explained in my blog, our school, and most other schools come to think of it, encourage only L-directed thinking. This blog, I thought, was very interesting, specifically when I read in the article about the MRI scans of the brain in a relaxed state, and the brain's activity during emotions and facial expressions, even. It was one of my favorite blogs.
