ABSTRACT
This chapter argues that all forms of psychotherapy would benefit from this augmented form of interhemispheric communication. It promotes unification between the left hemispheric division of information and the right hemispheric tendency towards wholeness. In other words, thesis and antithesis are combined as a synthesis. The role of individuation from the LH is integrated with that of coherence from the RH. The rationality of the LH is subject to the intuitive wisdom of the RH. Knowledge of the five stages of Bilateral Affective Reprocessing of Thoughts (BART) psychotherapy and of peak performance helps to bring these perspectives together. The chapter introduces a new philosophy that is possible through the application of BART psychotherapy. Patients can be helped to achieve new insights and awareness towards the Delphic goal of Gnothi Seauton. It is an integration of the art and science of both psychotherapy and peak performance.
