Energy Psychology and the Tao of Qigong

ACEP • October 6, 2021

An interview with Michael DeMolina, PhD(c), MS, LPC, DCEP


As an energy psychology practitioner, have you wanted to delve deeper into the realm of energy and consciousness? You know that energy psychology has its roots in Eastern approaches. What is the relationship between energy psychology and Qi Gong or Taoism?


On the other hand, maybe you practice Qi Gong or acupuncture and you have been hearing about this energy psychology stuff. Are you wondering what it is about? Should you care about energy psychology?


Or perhaps you practice transpersonal humanistic psychology and you want to know how these energy approaches fit in with your cosmology.


You have come to the right blog!


This fascinating five-part video series chronicles a 45 minute conversation between me and Michael DeMolina, Qigong master, ACEP’s EFT lead North American trainer, master addiction counselor and president of Wisdom Traditions Healing Centers in Alaska. The conversation covers a lot of ground: energy, consciousness, Taoism, addictions, trauma, enneagram, Jungian archetypes, neuroscience and more. I had a blast talking with Michael, and I hope you enjoy it.


Why not watch one video (8-10 minutes) each morning with your coffee or tea? What a great way to start the day and get your juices flowing. A warning: each video may raise more questions than it answers. And that is a good thing.


View the video in five short segments here.

David Feinstein, not to anyone’s surprise, has contributed yet another groundbreaking paper to the field of energy psychology. This one focuses on the physiological mechanisms that appear to explain how tapping actually works. While empirical verification of effectiveness is vital—and we’ve come a very long way toward establishing that—it’s a bit more complicated to credibly pinpoint the physiology behind those results.

Is the brain the origin of the mind, or its instrument? This blog explores a question that humans have had for millennia.

When you have been through a trauma and are feeling shocked, try bouncing up and down on the balls of your feet. You can also sit in a chair and massage your heel and ankle areas. The Heel Shock Release is a simple body-based technique that will help you reawaken your energy system. The technique comes to us from Donna Eden . Practice the technique right now by watching the video below and following along. Remember to try it next time you are feeling exhausted but can’t take a nap! You can also download written instructions in English , Spanish , and Portuguese .
