Anatomy of the Spirit

I was diagnosed with cancer and had to undergo the fun steps of dealing with overworked nurses and schedulers who sell you doom, gloom and you will have to have chemo and radiation and come see us to demean your health protocols for time everlasting.I chose to work on my diet and added deep meditations.This book with reflective words helped me remain on the course of positivity in my cancer experience. Not only did I not go berserk when nurses told me my diet didnt matter nor did my physical fitness I also was able with support from this book to nOT have to have chemo or radiation!

Caroline Myss is the real deal. Authentic, straight to the point, and clear about medical intuition.

I have been having an occasional pain in my abdominal area and injured my lower back caused herniated lumber disk. The cause for both of them completely made sense when I read this book. I have been trying to be more conscious about spiritual / mind / chakra aspect of my life which I learned from the book. I am feeling much better since, Both pain has dramatically been subsided. Symbolic meaning of cancer, cysts, other tumors and the location of pain is relating to your entire life habit and history. You can learn so much and give another perspective of your health.

Want to learn the inner workings of your spirit? This is a great read.

Myss is a must read. Best books on the chakras.

This book is very informative and packed with helpful guidance. Self analysis questions are very deep and really prompts you take a closer look within yourself. Highly recommend this book.

Someone previously wrote a review that indicated this book changed their life -- I believe that was the most accurate review I've seen, and I concur. It isn't a gloss-over, and the comparisons it does to pull all of the world's major religions together is exceptional. If you are looking for an in-depth, deep-dive, reference book that you will review and read over and over - this is the book to keep by your side. It is not a once-thru read - it has practical use in day-to-day spiritual ups and downs, and provides information on how to keep yourself in balance (or re-balance, as needed). I wish I could give it more than 5 stars.

I began by reading in paperback and bc I am in my vehicle so often thought it would be nice as an audiobook. I was disappointed when it was more like a podcast and n stead of someone reading the book. Don’t get me wrong it is a GREAT listen and I am happy I have it I just expected the words from the book and not a lecture.

I LOVE this book so hard. Finally, a book about healing that resonates on a level that goes beyond the simple physical and looks at the spiritual and emotional causes of disease. How long will GPs continue to ignore the emotional pain that is often BEHIND the physical manifestation of illness? I had so many A-HA! moments reading this book that I lost count after about the first 10. Having worked in psychiatry myself, I found myself nodding and concurring with many, many points in this book because I too, have noticed the exact SAME patterns in my patients. It is certainly no coincidence in my opinion that so many cancer patients I have come across often have problems asserting themselves and repress their own anger and emotional needs in order to serve others needs and put others first. Please dont get the wrong impression- there is NO sense of blaming anyone here for their illness, but rather, a recognition that we ALL have our own patterns of thinking and behaviour, "emotional scripts", if you will, that are handed to us in childhood and some of those scripts cause us emotional pain. Emotional pain that is not dealt with will eventually, over time, manifest in physical illness. It is not our *fault* that we have these scripts, but it is our *responsibility* as to what we choose to do with them. For me, that was the essence of this book. As a society, we have placed useless sticking plasters on ourselves for far too long without examining the real root cause of the illness or trying to prevent it in the first place. Now, I am aware that this is sounding a tad *out there*, but if you would just open your mind a little you will see that physical illness is often associated with emotional states. How often have we heard the stereotype of the burnt out, type A personality, whose outbursts of anger only aggravate the stomach ulcer thats literally eating away at their insides? How could our emotional state NOT affect our physical health? - when we get angry, our blood pressure rises, we get red in the face, we go into fight or flight mode- ALL physical reactions to an emotional state. If we get angry often, this physical state will most definately start to cause us physical issues in the long term. This book is very eye opening. If you are looking to be the healthiest person you can be, or, you are looking for answers as to why you might be ill right now, I highly recommend you read this book. It will truly open your eyes and give you hope.

This is my second copy as my old one fell apart. Very interesting and informative book and a good reference to check in on how our chakras should really work. Lots of answers to be found within these pages. If we would all start working more on balancing and understanding our chakras more, I think we would all be a lot healthier and happier.

Stating the obvious mixed with an unsupported information and loads of self promotion and struggles to prove the quality of her intuitive reading skills. The 'case studies' are appalling and lacking evidence.Her unsupported theories are as fake as her PhD. She achieved Masters but no PhD. Her stories are manipulative bit based on the power of the mind which is all in all a positive thing to share.The quality of this book can be easily compared to the laundry in which you mix whites ,blacks and all the colours in between into the same wash and expecting to have a vibrant colours after all.

Was looking for a book that would make that connection between mind,body and spirit at a deeper level and this book did exactly that.Quite deep at times and had to re-read certain parts but on the whole the message was clear. It helped me to understand my own spiritual dilemma with clarity and compassion and how I could move forward.

The truths that I have been reading & hearing from Caroline have truly been changing my life view. If you are ready to really take on board what Caroline has to say & work with the insights, you 're on a road to personal & spiritual transformation. It's Huge, big huge.
