This is so enlightening and explains so much. I grew up totally left brain and have been trying to pin it on early childhood trauma and not developing normally. I think that may have exacerbated the undermethylation that I didn't find out about until late in life. But even with treatment I'm still wondering if my brain ever developed normally. I'm going to look for Dr. McGilchrist's book and see what else I can do to live more balanced.
Thank you, Janet. I think our experiences, genetics and secondary biochemistry all impact this. There is interesting research on the role of the attachment experience on development of the right hemisphere. I discuss this within the blogpost linked below. Thank you for commenting on this and sharing your experience. https://www.courtneysnydermd.com/blog/our-forgotten-foundation-our-first-three-years-attachment
Thank you for your great work. When neuroscientist Jill Bolte Taylor had a stroke she was able to experience the two hemispheres independently, which she shared in a fascinating account in her book 'My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey' and in a Ted talk https://youtu.be/UyyjU8fzEYU?si=CItWX4xPuKBcVD6P
I’m so grateful for this information. It totally explains my life. Richard Rudd contributes to this discussion in his overview of the 63rd Gene Key. http://r.mailout.genekeys.com/mk/mr/sh/WCPxRrNLV1Ltv4rQJPGk1qnsHGKl42gj/INL3SQlXcZcM
Thank you, Judy. I’m do glad this was meaningful for you. And thank you for adding on to the discussion.

Thank you, and thank you for adding this great example.
thank you for this. very helpful.
Thank you so much, for letting me know that.
