solutions - alive why

solutions

what solutions have been developed that deal with the problem of
the human condition :
the abyss between cortex and amygdala
between logic and emotion
this problem is partly solved,
though unwittingly,
by all the wisdom we have accumulated over time
(you would hope)
we have (?)religion, psychiatry, psychology, neurosciences, theology,
philosophy, social work, social welfare entities, community involvement
we have all our literature,
self help books, poetry, music, art, drama, films.

all of these deal with or portray emotions
look at any fiction book
and you will see it deals with emotions and the human condition
but there is little agreement or cogency in the messages.
most tend to gloss over the basic point
it is seen that life is a sea of circumstance and emotion
and we are tossed willy nilly with no compass.
literature seems largely to observe and gaze in wonder
or to simply join in the festival of emotion
this makes entertaining stuff but helps little

on the other hand in the fields of science and therapy we have:

cognitive behaviour therapy
neurolinguistic programming
dialectical behaviour therapy
relationship analysis
attachment theory
management of emotions
meditation
awareness
mindfulness
psychoanalysis

many of these deal with the gap between logic and emotion
but it is seldom simply stated that this gap is the source of the problem
