I started becoming aware of this disconnect (or imbalance) when I got a dog. It is true that training gets the dog to obey commands like sit, stay, down, wait or whatever one or two word phrase gets the dog to do what you want. Then I tried something: I sent an image, actually a video clip of a dog doing a sit, and he did it. With three tries, with the word 'sit' so he knew what I meant.
Such communication is possible when one engages the right brain and exercises the mental discipline necessary to stop brain chatter (left brain activity). In my opinion, the presence required to use telepathy or other forms of energetic communication enables the right brain to receive energetic inputs from another sentient life form; such an energetic connection also allows heart centered communication with the said sentient being, where transmission to the being becomes possible.
Having been trained in chiropractic neurology (sometimes called 'functional neurology'), I have spent years trying to figure out the neural pathway and the vagus nerve is one candidate. It is the longest nerve in the body and innervates the heart, the gut and other centers where we perceive 'feel' or 'knowing'. Now, after trying to understand something like grounding and why it works, I came up with fascia, something which acupuncturists use in their practice. The more I understood fascia, the more I realized that it too provides a connection to the outside world.
We can talk all day about the importance of exercise, but my idea is that movement of charged particles interact with the Earth's magnetic fields, to provide the fiber so to speak that enables this to occur. Movement is what makes this happen. Once the input enters the nervous system, it can be processed by the (usually the right) brain. If you look at what the right brain responds to, they are energetic in nature: sound frequencies (music), color (light frequencies), vibration or other things we can't quite describe. In our culture, the hardest thing about percieving right brain input is silencing brain chatter. I think this is what is meant by mental discipline as practiced by accomplished martial artists. It is the lack of certainty which triggers the left brain.
It may interest you that in my training: emotions first settle into the connective tissue and when that is filled up: the body then puts on weight to handle the load if , for instance, one is carrying 'family structure' ( in the jaw) through the subconscious. Once cleared, the body no longer needs to put on the weight.
My D.O. has me stretching the minute I get up to release the fascia tension. Otherwise as we age: it catches up to us with rigidity throughout the body.
Inflammation of the cranial nerves is an issue. Since they bunch through the brain stem down the spine for signaling: strokes for sure show a resulting loss of motor skills.
I understand why many Vaxxers - even when I tell them about a couple of semi pro hockey players that I play with (early 30's - super fit) were in the ICU literally hours after taking a Covid shot - and both have myocarditis - careers over... stand there in disbelief either saying nothing or insisting it 'could not be the shots - they are SAFE and Efffective!!!!'
Yes. We have had three. Current pup of one we had. The connection with a loved dog is without comparison. That I know now for sure after 20 years with dogs.
When his dad - our first - died, I wept like had not in years and years. Five years on I still miss him, and his loopy Lurcher buddy we rescued.
Having one of his pups reninds me of him all the time. He's buried under a clinbing rose in our garden, and I chat to him when I am gardening there.
I know that humans and dogs are symbiotic. We need each other
I’m reading this in tears now, as the suffering in the world is so clearly exposed in this piece. The remedy is not to castigate the left brain, but to recognize that we can, with some effort, master our attention. This essay resonates strongly with something I’ve seen in the ReSurfacing exercises from the Avatar® Course: attention is not one thing with one setting. There is focused attention, broad contextual attention, immersive attention, observational attention, and the ability to shift viewpoint deliberately. The breakthrough lies not in choosing one mode over another, but in recovering enough agency that attention can be placed, widened, narrowed, or released intentionally. In that sense, this beautifully complements McGilchrist’s point: different modes of attention disclose different worlds, and development involves learning to use those modes consciously rather than being unconsciously governed by them.
Yes..I concur. I wrote an article on my website some few years ago and I called it: The Corrupted Masculine.
The additional problem we face is that the CV Vaxx has been taken by some 70-80% of the global pop who are not only experiencing 1) Prion disease ( some 30-35% now) 2) neurological breakdown and most importantly 3) severing the connection to the God Source that is on the R side of the brain. It grows with you if one is in service to the Divine.
Yes...certainly as a civilization we are in a serious way. The split is now underway and can now be seen if one pays attention to behavior.
“After a left-hemisphere stroke, this mirror phenomenon does not occur. The right hemisphere still provides a complete world.”
My husband had a left brain stroke that affects his right side. He completely ignores his right side. When I ask him to grab his right hand, he knows it’s there, but says, “I can’t”
He can’t do anything that requires the left brain. However, he can and will pick up on moods and emotions very quickly. So, I always have to stay calm and sweet and nice. He’s easy to anger. He also has mixed dementia.
My first husband had a right brain stroke that affected his left side. He eventually was able to walk and use his left side. But, lost that ability later. About fifteen years later…
My second husband unknowingly uses his right hand all the time. It’s an automatic function. So that’s probably normal because of the right brain seeing the whole picture even if he is unaware of it.
An excellent presentation of information about the brain, but even more pertinent is the exposure of the limitations and negative consequences of the illogical thinking about LLMs and artificial intelligence. I am more comfortable with ignorance than with the idea of AI.
Interestingly: the Circle of Willis in the center of the 2 hemispheres is where a lot of cross talk takes places between the hemispheres and is often 'corrupted' and needs an energetic clearing.
This essay is the perfect companion piece, the vital context (as I'm sure you're aware), to your previous essay "freedom-and-protection". It provides the perfect explanation to a world gone mad. Now, I wonder if our dark overlords on the narcissistic/sociopathic/psychopathic spectrum are aware that their right hemisphere isn't working properly? I suppose not.
Just one more observation on this essay. In the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Philip K. Dick posited that synthetic humans or 'replicants' could only be detected by a series of questions known as the Voight-Kampff test. This measured the empathy of the test subject, and thus, the left-hemisphere/right-hemisphere imbalance. This vital element of the plot was retained (with some additional subtle ambiguities) in the film Blade Runner. This raises the question of how we can detect people in our own lives with this overt left hemisphere dominance?
Thank you for this writing. I am a big fan of Iain. My biggest takeaway from his book, that helped me on a practical level, was his observations about anger.
"The emotion that lateralizes most of all is anger, and it lateralizes to the left hemisphere, not the right. What you get is superficial emotions like irritation, anger, disgust, very well served by the left hemisphere. But the ones that involve human meaning and understanding, like feelings of sorrow and guilt, are much better served by the right hemisphere."
And.
"The left hemisphere understands only I-it relationships. Anger is its only emotion. The left hemisphere tends to be upbeat and confident because it never doubts the rightness of its ideas. Thus, it is incurably optimistic; always winning."

Seems to me we ought to be able to resolve this.
Vagus nerve...for sure. Vagus nerve 'activation'..helps.
Ps..LOVE the dog video idea. Will try it on my dachshund male pup who believes he is the first and last word in the house.
After reading this ... I can now understand what causes 'stupidity'... I can now understand how most people would believe this pc of junk... made a trip to the moon https://fasteddynz.substack.com/p/another-quick-reminder-that-this

And they actually believe what they are saying...
Connecting with animals is indescribably rewarding. Thank you for mentioning that!
I have been taught by lots of wonderfully patient animals. Bless their sacred hearts!

Steiner said in or around 1917 that vaccines would be used to shut peoples' souls down.
He was right.
Wordless appreciation. Thank you!

Fascinating - I want to read his book now
I’ll need to read this later when my brain is more settled.
Try listening by audio.
Interestingly: the Circle of Willis in the center of the 2 hemispheres is where a lot of cross talk takes places between the hemispheres and is often 'corrupted' and needs an energetic clearing.
Excellent interpretation of left/right hemispheres I never really understood. This article I will save and revisit often.
This essay is the perfect companion piece, the vital context (as I'm sure you're aware), to your previous essay "freedom-and-protection". It provides the perfect explanation to a world gone mad. Now, I wonder if our dark overlords on the narcissistic/sociopathic/psychopathic spectrum are aware that their right hemisphere isn't working properly? I suppose not.
Thanks for the summary and points.
We went into left brain dominance due to language which could imbue abstract concepts disconnected from sensed reality.

I made a contrast between left brain detail thinking vs whole thinking here.

We’re not watching a collapse of intelligence.
We’re watching the wrong kind of intelligence take over.
The part that labels, measures, and controls has declared itself king…
while the part that actually sees reality has been sidelined.
So now we get systems that are precise but blind,
confident but clueless,
data-rich and wisdom-poor.
They don’t think they’re wrong—
they literally can’t see what they’re missing.
That’s the trap.
The map replaced the territory.
The model replaced the world.
And the machine mind is now running the show.
I don’t join systems like that. I step outside them.

Love your awesome response…

Wow. Thank you.
Bravo, fantastic article. IMcG is proof positive of the indomitable heart of man. I also highly recommend listening to him.
