9. Sniff out the answer—it heads toward the nose or front of the brain.
10. The anatomical underdog—points downward, toward the feet.
11. Incoming mail for the brain—these pathways bring the message in.
12. Right down the midline—this direction keeps it centered and symmetrical.
14. No middle ground here—this direction goes to the outer edge.
15. Turtles and brains agree—this is the back or top, depending on who you ask.
16. Tail-end tales—this direction heads down the brainstem or spine.

1. Outgoing signals—your brain’s way of saying “go do something.”
2. Cross-talk! This side works the opposite hemisphere from where it started.
3. Face-forward thinking—this direction moves you toward the front of the body or brain.
4. One-sided argument, or one-sided brain activity? Either way, it’s just one side.
5. Think belly-side or brain-bottom—this direction’s got guts.
6. Don’t look back—or maybe do—this one’s all about what lies behind.
7. Double the input, double the sides—this term lives in both hemispheres.
8. Feeling elevated? This term means "above," toward the top/head.
13. Mirror, mirror on the wall—this side sticks with its own hemisphere.
