Wisdom for Healing Cards [Cards]

Caroline Myss (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 1, 2005

Healing is more than confronting the challenge of an illness. The wise approach is to realize that it is a lifestyle requiring constant support, and attention to the well-being of our mind, body, and spirit.

 

However, illness often forces a person to begin the journey of personal empowerment, as does loss, loneliness, and other life crises. It’s very difficult to know where and how to begin that journey, which is why I created these Wisdom for Healing Cards. They are intended for repeated use, as the task of keeping healthy on a physical, spiritual, and emotional level is lifelong.

More About the Author

Caroline M. Myss ' Biography

Caroline is dedicated to creating educational programs in the field of human consciousness, spiritually and mysticism, health, energy medicine, and advancing the science of medical intuition. She established CMED, her own educational institute, in 2003, which offers two programs running three courses per year, on Sacred Contracts and Mysticism. Additionally, Caroline maintains a rigorous workshop and lecture schedule internationally and continues a consultation practice with physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists, and other health practitioners, as a medical intuitive.

In 1996, Caroline compiled her years of research in medical intuition with her work in the field of human consciousness, releasing the book, ANATOMY OF THE SPIRIT. This book became a New York Times bestseller and has been published in 18 languages. To date, it has sold over 1.5 million copies.

In investigating the underlying reasons why people sabotage their healing processes, Caroline identified a syndrome as 'woundology', characterized by a person who prefers to rely upon the power of illness for manipulation of his or her world as opposed to attained an independent, empowered state of health. As with her other ground-breaking research, this syndrome is now a recognized psychological condition. Her work in this area became the subject of her fourth book, WHY PEOPLE DON'T HEAL and HOW THEY CAN. This book was Caroline's second New York Times bestseller.

Caroline released her fifth book, SACRED CONTRACTS, which became her third New York Times bestseller. As with her previous books, this one is also in 18 languages and reports sales of well over 1.6 million.

Due to the interest generated by her work in Sacred Contracts, in 2003, Caroline opened CMED (Caroline Myss Education), her own educational institute. CMED offers two programs per year, each three sessions long. The first is on Sacred Contracts and the second is on Mysticism, Intuition, and Healing. The Institute draws students from nineteen nations, as well as across the United States.

In 2004, Caroline released her sixth book, INVISIBLE ACTS OF POWER, which also became a New York Times bestseller. She is now working on her seventh book: ENTERING THE CASTLE. She has also just published her first book through her company, CMED, entitled, THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF GEORGE WASHINGTON, an extraordinary piece of literature that was channeled sixty years ago by a nearly-blind woman named Edith Ellis. Myss considers this project to be a vital part of her commitment to support an archive of information on her personal passion, which is the mystical history of America.

Through the years of her career, Caroline has taught in thirty-five countries, continuing her international work at present. In addition to writing six books, Caroline is the leading recording artist for Sounds True, Inc., the major audio recording company in the holistic field. She has recorded with them since 1990, producing 30 different titles. Her entire library of recordings now number of 180.

In 2003, Oprah Winfrey gave Caroline her own television program for one year with the OXYGEN network in New York City, which ran successfully for one year.

BOARD MEMBERSHIPS

From 1999-2004, Caroline served on the Board of the State of the World Forum with Jim Garrison.

She is presently on the Board of Wisdom University, San Francisco, where she also Chairs the Department of Energy Medicine and the Healing Arts.

In 1995, Myss, along with C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D., founded the American Board of Scientific Medical Intuition.

CMED Institute

In 2003, Myss founded her own educational institute, CMED (Caroline Myss EDucation), providing seminars in Sacred Contracts and Mysticism and Intuition for students from all over the world. More information on her institute is available on her web site: www.myss.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars Journey Towards Empowerment and Well-Being, July 11, 2005

"Healing is more than confronting the challenge of an illness. The wise approach is to realize that it's a lifestyle requiring constant attention to the well-being of your mind, body and spirit. Of all the many factors that healing and living a healthy life require, becoming an empowered individual is the most important. That's also the most difficult." - Caroline Myss

According to medical intuitive and spiritual teacher Caroline Myss, personal empowerment first begins with the choices we make. Even small choices can have strong energetic reverberations that echo through both our bodies and our lives. In fact, she asserts that even one positive action can create an entirely new life.

Crises such as illness, loss, and heartbreak often force us to begin the journey of personal empowerment. In the throes of such difficulty, knowing where and how to begin this quest can be a daunting task.

With the Wisdom for Healing Cards, Myss provides 50 different lessons to help individuals ascertain personal energy levels and movement. In addition, her wisdom encourages body awareness, emotional self-examination, and spiritual connection to God.

Myss' approach is a proactive one, with each card focusing on a specific lesson and goal. For example, in the card titled "Notice That Special Person", the lesson says:

"On this day, take notice of someone whom you've previously ignored. That person is your teacher, your special angel, and he or she will do or say something you've been waiting for, just because you're recognizing the beauty of his or her spirit. Your goal: to see that everyone is capable of helping you heal, and vice versa."

The Wisdom for Healing Cards features the gorgeous, vibrant art of Janice Fried, the same artist who illustrated the Archetypes Cards and the other Healing Cards deck by Myss. Each glossy card has a colorful image on one side, and a lesson/goal on the other. Some of the themes include:

* Release the Need to Complain
* Observe Your Attitude
* Be Mindful of Conflict
* Recognize Your First Thought
* Eat Healthful
* Relinquish Control
* See the Synchronicity

I was feeling unwell last night, and decided to draw a card to see if the Wisdom for Healing Cards would "speak" to me. I ended up drawing "Enhance Your Physical Health" which admonished:

"Think about how you view yourself as a physical being. Do you perceive yourself as weak or strong? Do you tend to make excuses for why you're not proactive in your healing when you see what can and should be done? Your goal: to initiate one positive action in your life to enhance your physical health."

In my case, I knew *immediately* that card referred to drinking more water-something I've received Guidance to do, but have neglected.

Intended for repeated use, this beautiful deck will help you uncover the layers of buried emotion, tap into intuitive Guidance, and make the necessary changes for empowerment and overall well-being.

In the day to day rush to be and do everything, oftentimes our thoughts are scattered and don't readily come into focus.

These cards, used singly or in multiples, help us focus our thoughts toward the healing empowerment we all possess.

Reminders to "release unproductive habits", "bring humor to everything", "use your wisdom" and "recognize the quality of information you feed your mind each day" - these are all golden nuggets contained within these cards. Just simple but powerful reminders to help us focus and become wiser - and more healthy !!

I think these cards are amazing! I am a believer of divine guidance because I have asked for Heaven's help and everytime I need an answer, I receive them. I don't feel alone anymore and I am confident that I am guided in the right direction. I have about 15 decks from different Authors and each deck is unique. At first, I wasn't crazy about the art work on the cards but I would take out a card and felt that it was sending me a strong message. Over time, the art has come alive and dances with me as I confidently follow good advise from a special friend. I use to be co-dependent but life has taught me hard lessons so now I am learning to be my own best friend. These cards are perfect with breakfast as I begin my day seeing my life clearer. I know I need constant nourishment and reassurance. If you are searching for answers, you will receive them.
