The science behind this concept of Midbrain Activation is the technique of optimizing the function of our middle brain, which is the ‘bridge’ between the left and right brain. Having this ‘bridge’ activated allows for the retrieval of information between the left and the right brain, which leads to more efficiency in learning and absorbing information. It also brings out and strengthens characteristics such as creativity, memory, application skills, self-confidence, and the ability to concentrate.
Many of us have heard that we are either left-brained or right-brained and have capabilities and qualities that define how we learn and gain knowledge. Midbrain Activation allows the brain to function as a whole, rather than only utilizing one part of the brain. Most theories suggest that right-brain dominant individuals are guided by the more emotional, intuitive right hemisphere while those who are left-brain dominant respond in sequential, logical ways, guided by the left hemisphere of the brain. Therefore, individuals who are middle brain oriented can have strong qualities from both hemispheres. They can benefit from logic from the left and intuition from the right. This is the basic principle behind Midbrain Activation.
