Product Description
Anatomy of the Spirit is the boldest presentation to date of energy medicine by one of its premier practitioners, internationally acclaimed medical intuitive Caroline Myss, one of the "hottest new voices in the alternative health/spirituality scene" (Publishers Weekly). Based on fifteen years of research into energy medicine, Dr. Myss's work shows how every illness corresponds to a pattern of emotional and psychological stresses, beliefs, and attitudes that have influenced corresponding areas of the human body. Anatomy of the Spirit also presents Dr. Myss's breakthrough model of the body's seven centers of spiritual and physical power, in which she synthesizes the ancient wisdom of three spiritual traditions-the Hindu chakras, the Christian sacraments, and the Kabbalah's Tree of Life-to demonstrate the seven stages through which everyone must pass in the search for higher consciousness and spiritual maturity. With this model, Dr. Myss shows how you can develop your own latent powers of intuition as you simultaneously cultivate your personal power and spiritual growth. By teaching you to see your body and spirit in a new way, Anatomy of the Spirit provides you with the tools for spiritual maturity and physical wholeness that will change your life.
Amazon.com Review
What sets Anatomy of the Spirit apart is Carolyn Myss's ability to blend diverse religious and spiritual beliefs into a succinct discussion of health and human anatomy. For example, when describing the seven energy fields of the human body, she fuses Christian sacraments with Hindu chakras and the Kabbalah's Tree of Life. Fortunately, Myss is a skilled writer as well as researcher, able to ground her extensive spiritual and religious discussions by using real-life stories and a tight writing style. Those who are squeamish with the notion of biography affecting biology will find this book a struggle (in one chapter, Myss links pancreatic cancer with a man's refusal to unburden his life and start fulfilling his dreams). Many, however, hail Myss for creating a valuable contribution to the ongoing exploration of spirituality and health. --Gail Hudson

 Excellent intro to energy medicine and the spirit October 29, 2008
I am a medical school graduate currently doing my residency at a large, prestigious hospital in Chicago,IL. I have known for a long time that western medicine does not have all the answers or even the best answers when it comes to health care. I've listened to several of Myss' recorded lectures but this is the first book of hers I have read. I was impressed by how Myss is able to combine the chakras with the Christian sacraments and teachings from the Kabbalah to come with a very workable and usable description of how our spirit interacts with us and the world and how we can use that knowledge to heal. I think she gives a very fresh and new perspective on the issue. If you have new to energy medicine or the workings of the spirit this book will (at the very least)give you a new way of seeing the world and your own specific predicament. I also found her own personal history and how she came about to be an intuitive healer very interesting.
Core Course for Spiritual Major October 21, 2008
When we want to get a degree in Engineering, we have to study some theortical courses and some applied courses. This book is one of the basic or core courses in the spiritual field. By reading it thoroughly, you can understand the theme behind a lot of other spiritual books.
Prof. Caroline Myss is really a gift from GOD to people who are interested in spirituality.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You to Dr. Caroline Myss for all her valuable books.
Anatomy of the Spirit Review October 4, 2008
I thought that the start of this book was heavy going but Part II was excellent. Would recommend that the reader starts reading last few pages of Part I where she introduces Part II and then start Part II. Afterwards Part I becomes more interesting.
Hard Read August 13, 2008
This is a bit of a hard read to me. I have to read the pages over and over to understand the way this is written. I dunno...it's probably a good book if you can manage not to become bored in the beginning with trying to understand it.
must read July 13, 2008
This is an excellent book for all to read who are looking for guidance through their spiritual journey. Fantastic reading. Well written, easy to follow.
