ABSTRACT
In 1998, the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology was formed, providing a professional home, code of ethics, certification, and scientific conferences. Energy psychology represents a rediscovery of the energy concept. The body itself has been neglected in much of the psychotherapeutic and psychological literature—creating a discourse that appeared to address a disembodied mind. A common response on hearing of the positive results of the energy psychology methods is that this obviously must be some kind of “placebo effect”. Psychotherapists are often intrigued by energy psychology, but feel at a loss as to how such seemingly “different” methods might be integrated into more conventional work. Most crucially for energy psychology, William Tiller finds that the human subtle energy system is the portal, or “coupler system” to the level two realities that is at a higher dimensional level than level one physical reality.
