Publisher's summary

If you are a healer, or know someone who is, then you are probably well aware of the enormous challenges of this life path. Choosing to be a healer, teaches Caroline Myss, comes with serious spiritual and energetic demands, and it is crucial to understand and prepare for them. With Caroline Myss' Essential Guide for Healers, the best-selling author of Sacred Contracts shares her most valuable insights and recommendations for health care professionals, counselors, therapists, bodyworkers, and anyone serving to heal others. Drawing on her own experience as a medical intuitive (one who discerns illness and its root causes in the body), Caroline Myss invites listeners to explore:

  • The healer archetype: Which specific healing arts are you meant to practice?
  • How the cosmos trains healers, and ways to open yourself to its lessons
  • Knowing when not to intervene as a healer
  • Understanding psychic exhaustion, contamination, and other dangers, and how to protect yourself
  • How your "appointment" to help others changes as your own inner evolution unfolds, and much more

The first tenet of any healer is: Care for yourself. Now, here is an unprecedented new resource for anyone seeking to cultivate the spiritual foundations of this calling.

Resonates!!!!!

So incredibly insightful. I love her no-nonsense way of teaching. Best teacher ever! What I wouldn’t give to learn everything she has learned. I wish I could say “Thank you!” for writing this book and others.

Essential Guide fo Healers

Earlier in my life I read a number of aCarolyn Myss books and learned much. Now as I seem to have more time to listen than read this has been a wonderful reintroduction to Carolyn Myss and her numerous topics, all of which are new to me. The audio was great, her subject well presented and objective.
Thank you for the opportunity to reacquaint myself with an “old friend’s passion”.

Interesting

Some of her points resonant strongly with me, others not so much. Personal POV differences.

Interesting perspective on “healers”

I put “healers” in quotes because when she talks about healers, there is a bad taste that’s in her mouth with that term. I agree with about 80% of what’s in this audio, and her insight is always a blessing. The one thing I will strongly disagree on is hands on healing experiences.. there are indeed tangible things happening during an energy exchange, having physical experiences. I have been a healer in a cave apparently.. because she talks a lot about prideful healers and wounded healers.. these things I was unaware of. After 20 years, I have finally found that I need to step out of the shadows to be able to fully share the world of energy to as many people as possible, because something is telling me of it’s importance. I am human, I am not perfect and it’s weird as I feel like after listening to this audio I need to defend myself as a healer, lol. But overall, you should listen, but also try not to take offense and stand in your truth.

A Must for Myss Fans

I almost passed up this gem due to the poor review listed here but as a person who has benefited greatly by Myss's program Sacred Contracts, I found this offering very worthwhile. If you are familiar with the concepts that support archetypal patterns in our lives and if you are even remotely interested in the healing arts, you will enjoy Myss's unique insight into the challenges faced by anyone who practices these arts. I especially appreciated her comments on burnout which I've identified as an ongoing issue for so many of us.

A MUST for the Energy Healer

This was required reading/listening for a shamanic class I took and I am sooo glad I "read" it. Caroline Myss, in her inimitable style, lays it out for the energy healers of today. Sound advice, cautions and the occasional yank of the chain are dispensed. I found it VERY enlightening (no pun intended) and plan to get all of her books.
