your non-dominant hand. This, in turn, will stimulate the neural
connections between the right and left hemispheres on your brain.
Scientific research confirmed that people that use both hands equally
have 10% more nerve fibers joining the two sides of the brain.Mousing “goofy” can also help you stop RSI. Here’s how to train yourself to mouse with the other hand.
