In fact, there's a recent study in Mexico where they looked at two to three months, six to eight months, nine to 12 months. At each point in time, they noticed that the right hemisphere was accelerating its growth, the left was not. So the right is dominant very early. In fact, there's evidence to show that even in utero, there is a right lateralization.

Now remember, the lateralization is part of all systems. And what is lateralized is not only the cortical areas, but the subcortical areas, et cetera. So if you take, let's say, the amygdala, there's a difference between the right amygdala and the left amygdala. And again, the right hemisphere. So the answer to that is very clearly now.

The left hemisphere does not come into a growth spurt until the end of the second year and into the third year, up until that point. Which means everything about attachment, is about right brain dynamics.

Yes, absolutely. And it's occurring during that brain growth spurt while the right hemisphere. So essentially what you have now is that in the baby's brain, that baby's brain is now in a right brain growth spurt. And the mother now is shaping that baby's right brain through the attachment mechanism, through her regulation of that brain. So she's helped shaping that brain for better or for worse.

And incidentally, that means also not only secure attachments, but also the matter, because it's for better or worse, it's also the early evolution of insecure attachments. And we'll talk about what those insecure attachments are. All of those really are being shaped by the right.

What's more, there's evidence to show that it goes right hemisphere, then it goes left hemisphere, and then it goes back into left and back and right along the lifespan. So although you have... A tremendous growth spurt more than any other time in the first two and a half, three years of life. Think now about adolescence where you have another growth spurt.

Is adolescence marked by a right brain growth spurt? It's marked by the initially right and then it goes left. So essentially with puberty and with the onset of testosterone and androgens and estrogens, it shifts now into another growth spurt at that point in time.

which means, just for the record, now the attachment relationship, which is essentially going to be about how we regulate our emotion, because I'll be talking about attachment as about the communication of emotions, right brain to right brain, in the first two years of life, and about the regulation of emotions in that same period of time, etc.,
