Brain researchers in recent years are discovering
the vast, untapped potential of the brain's,
little used, right hemisphere.
She discovered, in healing herself of a life-threatening
disease, how to access the right hemisphere
of the brain.
This is a very simple technique
of writing questions with your dominate hand
( if you are right handed - your dominate
hand would be the right one) then switching
your pen to the left (if right handed) and
writing the answers to your question.
This method opens up Nero pathways and taps
into the creative part of your mind.
Often,
you will tap into your inner child and get
to the root of many of your life's problems. (see her bestselling book Recovery of Your Inner Child).
"In teaching hundreds of people to write
with BOTH hands, I've observed over and over
that writing done with the other hand often expresses disowned and oppressed parts
of the self.
With profound simplicity the
other hand speaks for the powerless, weak,
subordinate aspect of the personality".
This "silent partner" releases
emotions and desires which have been stored
away in the subconscious. You may wonder
why this is so.
The non-dominate hand is
generally considered the wrong hand for writing, so it is the perfect hand for expressing anything in ourselves
which has been judged as wrong.
Writing with the other hand brings up feelings of awkwardness. It is
the unschooled hand. Since it has not been
trained to write, its handwriting looks like
a child's: slow, awkward, clumsy, ugly (by
most standards of penmanship).
Often
the scrawls are barely legible. Spelling
errors frequently occur, even among good
spellers.
Almost all the people I have worked with
said they felt child-like and vulnerable
when they first wrote or printed with the
other hand.
Some people report that primitive and raw
emotions came to the surface. The Inner Child
frequently comes out in a rush of feeling.
And beneath the layers of hidden emotions,
one finds an intuitive and creative voice.
The fight-brain attributes: creative, emotional
and intuitive - are precisely the qualities
that come out most easily when the non-dominate
hand writes.
You will see this in illustrations and examples
throughout the book.
