right-brain
Although they work together, the right- and left-hemispheres of our brains process information differently, and tend to be responsible for different functions. Generally, the right-brain can be thought of as visual, processing information in an intuitive and simultaneous way, looking first at the whole picture then the details. Words often associated with right-brain functions include:
- intuition
- creativity
- patterns
- visual/spacial awareness
- symbolism
- metaphor
- a-logical decisions
- emotion
- big picture
- perception
