"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.

I love these cards and use them every day. The card gives you something every day to try and change for the positive.

Myss made a cheerful deck which appealed to me and some of my psychotherapy clients.
The advice leaves you thinking how much am I being negative or positive? How much am I doing to promote health and well being for myself and others? It forces you to recognize you have an active role in this situation. It is a thoughtful, well constructed deck. Some cards include See the synchronicity, Practice the art of transformation, Make one small change and see what big ones ignite as a result, and Eat healthy, and Choose to heal. It forces you to examine what you say and think and why you do that. That is why I consider it thoughtful.
The ideas follow from her energy medicine theory and other prior works/books. This deck is useful for therapists and physicians.

Great conversation starters and can be used for a daily reminder of God's desire for us to be healed.
