I take it as a metaphor not as label.
Why not just enjoy the erudition of Benebell Wen's book without labeling yourself?
Yes, a tendency towards processing information, a preference for a mode of thinking compared to the other.I take it as a metaphor not as label.
Advice would be to use both halves of your brain.
That's how the brain evolved to function.
To use only one side is to be a halfwit.
To worry that you might not understand a book because what a non-scientific, unproven myth said about your brain is an odd route to go down. It's a peculiar way to sift information.
I'm with Nemia, it's a metaphor to me... I don't literally believe one of the halves of my brain is more active/stronger than the other lol. But it's an easy and fast way to describe how I best learn things and similar, since many people know of the whole "theory" of being left- or right-brained.
