We’ve all heard the phrase, “I have half a mind to ...” which may be true! If this describes what
is happening cognitively for a person, he or she may literally be using only half of the
information that is coded in their brain to deal with a particular situation or event. Missing is an
integration of thinking; an amalgamation of right and left brain perspectives. Hemispheric
Integration™ opens up new possibilities by teaching us how to access our “other mind’s eye,”
or that half of the brain which “sees” things other than what we may consciously be aware.
Research demonstrates that the brain codes “reality” differently in each of hemisphere of the
brain. When we think of events or experience imprints from past traumas, unique cognitive
perceptions are being generated by each amygdala, one located in each hemisphere of the brain.1
Therefore, for every situation two distinct cognitive perceptions are at play. The left hemisphere
is responsible for logical, linear thinking, analytical evaluations and historical and familiar
information. The right hemisphere is concerned with spatial relationships, the essence of self,
personal safety, emotionally charged memories and the assimilation of unfamiliar facts and
events.
