The term 'right brain' refers to the hemisphere of the brain traditionally associated with holistic and integrative processes, as opposed to the analytic and sequential processing attributed to the left hemisphere. Drawing from Iain McGilchrist's perspective, particularly from his elucidation in works like "The Master and His Emissary," the right hemisphere is seen as the master orchestrator of context and meaning, facilitating an understanding of the world that transcends mere factual assembly. It is deeply involved in emotional and social intelligence, and the appreciation of art, music, and spatial relationships. The right brain enables us to grasp the interconnectedness of things, nurturing a sense of empathy and an ability to navigate the world in a way that is ultimately richer and more grounded in lived experience.
