This book is unique in that it discusses the nature of human suffering and how patients can be helped to overcome psycho-emotional pain through work with the Eight Extraordinary Vessels. Emotional suffering and resistance to change can be an impediment to the healing process, with many physical conditions being resistant to treatment due to their psycho-emotional element. Understanding this suffering and providing a therapeutic environment which allows the patient to believe that things can be different improves the effectiveness of an Eight Extras treatment. Approaching the topic from the perspective of suffering means that the theory can be applied to both physical and emotional illness, including addiction, chronic pain, auto-immune conditions and hormonal disorders. This a very practical book and will include a full explanation of how to create an Eight Extras treatment and also case studies showing clinical use of the vessels and how to apply them. These case studies show how coping mechanisms and resistance develops and how important history is in the diagnostic process.

Editorial Reviews

Review

This contribution is the single most unequivocal academic reminder that the medicine is living art. I've never read a text that testifies so strongly to the metaphor and poetry of what we can do. -- Russell Brown, LAc., author of Maya Angelou's Meditation 1814

Dr Farrell's exploration of the 8EVs is nuanced with practical, personal, and deeply insightful candor. She demystifies the 8EVs and preserves their profound intent to support the spiritual journey. -- Luke Adler L.Ac., author of Born to Heal

A welcome addition to the literature that exists on the subject (...) what is interesting and unusual about this book is not only that it goes into great details about every EV, but also that it is focused on treating EV as a way of bringing the person closer to his or her original energetic make-up or original nature (...) I would certainly recommend this book not only to anyone interested in exploring the Eight Extraordinary Vessels, but anyone pondering the philosophical question of health and disease. -- Olga Fedina, The European Journal of Oriental Medicine, Volume 8, No 5, 2017

5.0 out of 5 stars Know Terminology
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2021

Call me an enthusiast, I don't have formal training, just some books.
This doesn't introduce the meridians and vessels, she does some explanation, but jumps right in and even uses different names for the same things (which is cool from a 'no longer lost in translation' standpoint.) I had to get out a notepad and start taking notes and cross-referencing to keep things straight.
Worth the effort.
I feel like I understand myself more.
Her note on parents was on point. Helped me let go of some resentment.
I am still a little confused about jing and different names for Qi or perhaps Qi density or meridian systems... just for what exactly are the dynamics between things that she mentions, but I think I get the general idea. Pretty sure the target audience is practicing, program-educated acupuncturists or acu-maseuses. Which I am not. So I accept my confusion with the territory, it was not in the author's agenda to clearly teach the birds-eye-view of circuitry and terminology, so much as to bring greater awareness of the 8 Ancestral Vessels and their clinical properties to those who were only casually acquainted with them in their studies.
It could easily be turned into the first case with some editing, I think. It doesn't have to, I'm just trying to express that it was worth reading, and easy to learn about the vessels once I had my bearings. A very good "introduction" in their relative sections.

I'm using this book constantly for emotional issues with my clients with great success. It is the best book for using the 8 Extraordinary Vessels for emotional release work. The concepts have been added to the classes I teach that already include the physical uses for the EV's and this expands the uses for emotional work to treat the entire person. I highly recommend this book to deepen your use of EV's. It is very simple to understand for anyone who has had an introduction to these vessels that are the supervisors to the meridians and connect back to prenatal DNA.

EXCELLENT. Concise. Thought provoking. Applicable.

When we are undergoing significant change, when we find ourselves with symptoms that will not resolve, when we are at the turning point of our development cycles (7/8 year). The 8 EV are activated with valuable insight and potential for our healing.

Thank you for writing this work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Warning: This Book Changes Lives!
Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2018
Verified Purchase
I feel like I only got 1/2 of the acupuncture story in school, and now thanks to Yvonne, I'm getting the second half. Healing on the physical, emotional, and psychic levels all simultaneously in order to unlock someone's true destiny is what got me into this business in the first place. I have been in practice for over 13 years, and considered myself quite competant, but as soon as I started peering into this book, I knew in short order that This was the kind of acupuncture I wanted to pratice all along.

After studying it for only a short while I started applying her treatment principles and already had dramatic results. That inspired me enough to attend one of her seminars, and it was absolutely mind-blowing how much information I received. Yvonne is the Real Deal, and made the meridians come alive for me like nobody has ever done. And on top of her vast theoretical and clinical knowledge, she has a heart of gold as well.

The 8 extras always fascinated me, but they always seemed obscure and out of reach, no matter who or what I studied about them, but not any longer.
They are Alive for me Now :D

To those of you who will purchase and work out of this book: If I can give some advice (some words of caution actually), it would be this:

Less is more (i.e. use very few needles), go slow, give them time to integrate the treatment, and Do Not delve into trying to heal a deep trauma without having a firm grasp of the 8x first. The more you understand the 8 extras; the more effective, safe, and powerful your treatments will become.

And if this feels like a good fit for how you want to pratice, go (or take online) one of her seminars, it will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make. It was for me..

This is an amazing book, exploring a very interesting topic. Written in easy to read language, it is one of those books you read from start to finish without wanting to put it down. It includes case studies, so it adds the practical element to the theory. Quite personal in places, this book makes you think about "you" as a practitioner. The chapter on "Intent vs Agenda" is definitely a must read and something to remember in clinic all the time! Highly recommended!
