Preview EMDR and the Universal Healing Tao: An Energy Psychology Approach to Overcoming Emotional Trauma

Acknowledgments The authors and Universal Healing Tao Publications staff involved in the preparation and production of EMDR and the Universal Healing Tao extend our gratitude to the many generations of Taoist masters who have passed on their special lineage, in the form of an unbroken oral transmission, over thousands of years. We thank Taoist Master Yi Eng (One Cloud Hermit) for his openness in transmitting the formulas of Taoist Inner Alchemy. We offer our eternal gratitude to our parents and teachers for their many gifts to us. Remembering them brings joy and satisfaction to our continued efforts in presenting the Universal Healing Tao system. For their gifts, we offer our eternal gratitude and love. As always, their contribution has been crucial in presenting the concepts and techniques of the Universal Healing Tao. We wish to thank the thousands of unknown men and women of the Taoist healing arts who developed many of the methods and ideas presented in this book. For their continuous personal encouragement, we wish to thank our fellow Taoists, students, clients, families, and friends who have inspired the writing of this book by their eager desire to understand Taoist Emotional Recycling. We thank the many contributors essential to this book’s final form: the editorial and production staff at Inner Traditions/Destiny Books for their efforts to clarify the text and produce a handsome new edition of the book, and Nancy Yeilding for her line edit of the new edition. A special thanks goes to our Thai production team for their efforts on the first edition of this book: Hirunyathorn Punsan, Sopitnapa Promnon, Udon Jandee, and Suthisa Chaisarn. Doug Hilton would like to thank: His wife Ana for all her love and support through the writing process; Master Mantak Chia for all of his knowledge, wisdom, guidance, and support; Dell Graff for introducing him to the field of addictions counseling; Veronica Graff for introducing him to the value of older traditions; Brent Neumann for numerous thought-provoking conversations; Donna Baird for introducing him to EMDR and for continual support; Dr. Sal Mendaglio for introducing him to the concept of polarities; Gerald Hilton for his encouragement and continual reminders of the value of polar opposites; Edward Gutierrez for his wisdom and continual encouragement; Jutta and Walter Kellenberger for their quiet and steady support; Gordon Mah for offering a patient and encouraging ear; Dr. Marshall Wilensky for teaching EMDR to him; Dr. Francine Shapiro for discovering EMDR; Dr. Robert Miller for creating the Feeling-State Addiction Protocol; all the Taoist masters who have contributed to the current knowledge; and the thousands of clients who have shared their wisdom and experience over the years.
