If you see this lady turning clockwise,

you are using your right brain.

If you see it the other way,

you are using left brain.

Some people do see both ways,

but most people see it only one way.

See if you can make her go one way and then the other

by shifting the brain's current. BOTH DIRECTIONS CAN BE SEEN.

Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking. The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking:

Left Brain

Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy

Right Brain

Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity.

Logical Sequential Rational Analytical Objective looks at parts.

Random Intuitive Holistic Synthesizing Subjective looks at wholes.

Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of these styles of

thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at

both modes. In general, schools tend to favor left-brain modes of thinking,

while downplaying the right-brain ones.
