Return to the True Self
A transformative book series that bridges trauma-informed psychology, applied neuroscience, and ancient oriental Tao holistic health philosophy to guide readers from hidden wounds toward deep restoration. Through science-grounded insights, symbolic language therapy, and practical self-healing frameworks, the series helps re-pattern the nervous system, restore emotional resonance, and reclaim the authentic self.
Book I — Unwiring the Shadows of Covert Trauma
Core Focus
Book I begins the journey of covert trauma recovery by uncovering the hidden architecture of wounding — the subtle ways inherited patterns, relational injuries, and suppressed emotions shape the nervous system, the body, and the mind’s inner landscape.
Drawing from trauma-informed psychology, applied neuroscience, and ancient oriental Tao holistic health philosophy, it offers a diagnostic lens — not for labeling, but for illuminating how pain hides in daily life. Through guided reflection and symbolic framing, readers learn to see the connection between emotional residue, somatic patterns, and the subconscious narratives that hold them in place.
Key Themes
Recognizing Covert Wounds – Identifying “invisible injuries” that manifest in self-doubt, relational disconnection, and chronic dysregulation; understanding how the nervous system encodes and stores them.
The Architecture Beneath the Wound – Exploring how survival adaptations become deep-set frameworks for perception, choice, and identity; introducing the concept of emotional infrastructure.
Mapping the Somatic–Emotional Landscape – Using breath awareness, body scans, and symbolic imagery to locate trauma-held energy; linking bodily tension to subconscious stories.
Tao-code™ Perspective on Trauma – Re-framing wounding through the Tao-code™ lens of Qi flow and stagnation, seeing blockages as signposts toward restoration.
Bridging Science and Symbol – Applying neuro-plasticity, phase–amplitude coupling, and emotional regulation cycles to explain change; using symbolic language to connect body processes and meaning-making.
Overall Goal
Book I serves as the compass — helping readers map wounds without shame, understanding them as adaptive patterns ready for re-patterning. It prepares the way for the deeper integration work of Book II, where recognition transforms into active restoration.
Book II — Neurological Energy Meditation
Core Focus
Building on Book I’s recognition and mapping, Book II focuses on restoring resonance between mind, body, and spirit. It blends ancient oriental Tao holistic health philosophy, applied neuroscience, and trauma-informed psychology into a daily living model for integration and identity reconstruction.
Key Themes
From Fragmentation to Flow – Releasing trauma-held rigidity through breath, movement, and symbolic imagery to support neural rewiring.
The Subconscious as a Garden – Creating safe symbolic spaces; cultivating new emotional patterns through repetitive resonance anchored in Taoist breath and Qi flow.
Jing–Qi–Shen Restoration Cycle – Reframing Tao-code™ alchemy with neuroscience: Jing as cellular/nutritional foundation, Qi as neural-biofield balance, Shen as consciousness resonance.
The Social-Relational Layer – Exploring how relational trust and group resonance accelerate healing; integrating moral identity and cohesion from cross-cultural psychology.
The Creative Reclamation – Using multisensory neuroscience, somatic perception therapy, music therapy, and subconscious journaling as symbolic acts of identity reclamation; restoring the original tone of the self.
Overall Goal
Book II transforms healing from recovery into personal evolution, helping readers embody a resilient, resonant state that is self-sustaining and supported by quantum healing techniques and holistic health assessment.
