Publisher's summary

For over 20 years, holistic medical expert Caroline Myss has studied why some people heal and others don't, researching this question with thousands of patients. She shares the startling truth about the hidden barriers to wellness in this fascinating look at our "energy anatomy" - the electromagnetic "circuitry" that connects the mind and spirit. Myss argues that many of us use our illnesses as a way of gaining power and intimacy, and this "victim mentality" dramatically undermines the healing process. This innovative, perceptive guide examines the fundamentals of human energy anatomy, the links between emotions and illness, toxic connections to our pasts, and much more.

Good points

Very interesting. A lot of good points. Good narration, but a little hard to hear.

Good, but too absolute

Forgiveness equals healing, pretty much. I like Myss, but her delivery lacks pathos (heart chakra) and the incalculable probabilities in the unknown, i.e. Divine Consciousness.

Thank you

Too humbled to try to analyze all the WHYs of WHY Ms. Myss' lecture was so meaningful...but gratitude for the opportunity to have access to mystic pragmatism is easy. Thank u.

Very Enjoyable!

I find Caroline Myss' lectures and audio books to be helpful and enjoyable. I have studied different spiritual "systems" and Myss has the ability to synchronize these varying systems by showing that these systems use differing words and descriptions to describe the same "things". Many people in my "system" cannot do this (synchronizing of the same concept in differrent languages) but Myss does this very well. This particular lecture has a poorer quality recording/sound than other lectures that I have previously listened to. I recommend that one listens first to an audio book or a lecture with better sound quality. Then you would understand her speech patterns, style, definitions and the quality isn't a distraction. Myss is a gem; I resonate with her & her tachongs; and highly recommend her works.

Just what I needed to hear.

Carolyn spoke truth right to my heart about why I haven't healed. Applying these truths is breaking me through. It is painful...having it "pulled out of my cell tissue"...but I wouldn't trade this for anything.

Healing is about biography

Myss speaks convincingly in general terms that healing is about not letting go of past hurts. She is a medical intuitive. I like this she is giving as she makes important points with more compassion and less admonishment than her more recent works.

This is a "must listen" audio presentation.

Carolyn Myss (pronounced 'Mayce') is a no nonsense, highly spiritual leader. I like to say she's the Dalai Lama meets Judge Judy. Listen, learn, heal.
