Description

"It is rare that an author and teacher as accomplished and influential as Caroline Myss would, with each book, discover whole new vistas, and then report back to us with her legendary clarity and passion. With Defy Gravity she has done it again. Anyone in need of healing—healing from illness, anxiety, fear, or heartbreak—will find enormous help in this book. It is a tonic made of light and wisdom."— Elizabeth Lesser , co-founder, Omega Institute and author of Broken Open: How Difficult Times Can Help Us Grow “In Defy Gravity , Caroline Myss offers a new model of transformation and healing that will shift how we perceive crisis and illness. A must-read.”— Deepak Chopra , author of Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul “Caroline has been one of my most important spiritual teachers. In her new book, she continues to pierce both hearts and minds with arrows of truth.”— Marianne Williamson , author of The Age of Miracles and A Course in Weight Loss Caroline Myss has been in the field of energy medicine and human consciousness for 20 years. Since 1982, she has worked as a medical intuitive, providing individuals with an evaluation of the health of their energetic anatomy system. She specializes in assisting people in understanding the emotional, psychological, and physical reasons why their bodies have developed an illness. Her New York Times bestsellers include Anatomy of the Spirit, Why People Don’t Heal and How They Can, Sacred Contacts, and Entering the Castle.

Features & Highlights

  • New York Times
  • best-selling author Caroline Myss draws from her years as a medical intuitive to show that healing is not only physical; it is also a mystical phenomenon that transcends reason.
  • Inspired by ordinary people who overcame a wide array of physical and psychological ailments—from rheumatoid arthritis to cancer—Caroline dove into the works of the great mystics to gain a deeper understanding of healing’s spiritual underpinnings. Based on these studies, she demonstrates how conventional and holistic medicine often fall short in times of need. Both systems rely upon a logical approach to curing illness when there is nothing reasonable about the emotional, psychological, or spiritual influences behind any ailment. Integral to this mystical healing approach is the engagement of the soul, which we experience through exploring our seven shadow passions, building an empowered inner self around our seven inherent graces, and learning how to work with the mystical laws that govern it. This knowledge holds the key to understanding what it means to defy gravity and break through the boundaries of ordinary thought. You can heal any illness. You can channel grace. And you can learn to live fearlessly.

Going deeply beyond

This book is makes us look even deeper than Caroline's other two, which I read & reviewed, Anatomy of the spirit and Invisible acts of power, both of which I was over - brimming with passion about!
I found this one much harder to read, due to the depth and the fact she is helping us face the very things that we shy away from about ourselves, the dark places (e.g. the difficulty in forgiving someone) as these places are where healing lies.. it is not an easy road!
She teaches us about the past wounds we hold onto, without realising we are and why it is so difficult to let them go.. then with Carolines' loving help and clear advice we can start release them. Taking us beyond the things that have held us, so we can transcend.
Healing ourselves can be a long, multi layered process, this book gives us the key to peace and healing of the spirit, if the other books laid the foundations.
Caroline now heals us at an even higher divine level, this lady knows no limits!!
I am in a very happy place thanks to you, Caroline, cannot thank you enough

Love Caroline

I listened to the Defy Gravity CD's first (got them from the library) and decided to order the book which is more comprehensive. Whether or not you believe in mystic healing the information can only enhance one's way of life. To become more aware and mindful of our thoughts and actions is easier said than done but I believe it's worthwhile and this book is proving to be an invaluable guideline. I love the language she uses, very descriptive.

Defy Gravity

Myss explains how to learn to use intuition for making decisions, by listening to what we are getting 'from the heavens' and from other people. An important book for spiritual development in this logical world.
