About this listen

 New York Timesbest-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.©2009 Hay House, Inc.; (P)2009 Hay House, Inc. Career Success Motivation & Self-Improvement Personal Development Personal Success

I enjoy and respect the work and wisdom of Caroline Myss and appreciate her direct, NY, no nonsense delivery. However, she did get a bit shouty at times in Defy Gravity and at those points I found it difficult to receive the message. I recommend sticking with it though because as always her teachings are pure gold.
