Synchronization of the Left & Right Hemispheres of the Brain. The Two Become One.

Neuroscientists have long known that cross-body movements help the left and right hemispheres of your brain to connect and coordinate. This is important because the more your hemispheres connect, the more optimally you perform on any given task.

Here's a summary of the information:

Cross-Crawl Exercise: The cross-crawl exercise involves coordinating movements that cross the midline of the body, such as touching the right elbow to the left knee and vice versa. This exercise is believed to stimulate communication and coordination between the left and right hemispheres of the brain.

Crossing the limbs while sitting or standing also stimulates this fusion.

Neuroscientific Understanding: Neuroscientists have recognized that cross-body movements can facilitate the connection and coordination of the left and right hemispheres of the brain. These movements require the brain to send signals back and forth between the two hemispheres, promoting integration and communication.

Benefits: The synchronization and coordination of the left and right hemispheres of the brain through cross-body movements are thought to have several potential benefits. These may include improved cognitive function, enhanced creativity, increased focus and attention, and improved overall performance on various tasks.

Autosuggestion and Synchronization of Conscious and Subconscious Mind (cerebrum and cerebellum)

Autosuggestion is a self-directed technique that involves the conscious repetition of positive affirmations or suggestions to influence the subconscious mind. The goal is to synchronize and align the conscious and subconscious aspects of the mind. While there is limited scientific research specifically on autosuggestion, related studies on consciousness, brain activity, and suggestion provide insights into potential benefits. Here's an overview:

1. **Conscious and Subconscious Mind**: The conscious mind represents our awareness, rational thinking, and decision-making abilities. The subconscious mind, on the other hand, operates below the level of conscious awareness and influences our beliefs, emotions, habits, and automatic responses.

2. **Synchronization and Alignment**: Autosuggestion aims to synchronize and align the conscious and subconscious mind by repetitively feeding positive suggestions or affirmations to the subconscious. The repetition helps to reprogram limiting beliefs, promote positive thinking, and influence behavior patterns. (See 'Shadow Work' Blog)
