How can you optimize your brain? Although the complete mapping and usage of the brain’s structure are not completely understood, we know neurologically that the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body and the left side of the brain controls the right side of the body.
There are a complex network of long nerve pathways that work there way down the central nervous system in the spinal cord and innervate skeletal muscle muscle. This is a simplified explanation for explaining the concept only.
For me, it is crucial to optimize both sides of the brain’s hemispheres to maximize your overall potential and create neuronal redundancy.
