Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review
Borrowing chakra principles and healing teachings from previous works, Dr. Caroline Myss forms a daily living plan that focuses on making the most of personal energy. Myss questions, chides, and inspires her audience--both audiobook listeners and the production's live studio gathering--to let go of blame, victimhood, and group thinking and take responsibility for their own lives. When she makes rueful fun of her own pre-enlightened state, it's to let her listeners know that they are not alone. Myss backs up her theories with both anecdotal and historical examples, and bolsters the production with a quiet certainty. (Running time: 9 hours, 6 cassettes.) --Kimberly Heinrichs --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
Teaching listeners to view health through a spiritual-biological lens that offers a new picture of how the human body heals, Dr. Myss fuses new research with her work as a respected medical intuitive to reveal the body's energy network, where spirit, matter, and power intersect. She describes her theories about how the human mind encodes thought and stores it within specific areas of the body. In 12 lessons, listeners learn about the map of our body's seven energy centers; our energetic relationship to sacred texts and divine power; principles of intuitive diagnosis, and much more. Includes an illustrated eight-page study guide. 6 cassettes in a vinyl binder.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gritty style, hard hitting content--it works., April 21, 2004

By	Paul Konasewich "Supportive Listening" (San Mateo, California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Energy Anatomy (Audio CD)

In university I studied engineering. I like to explore many things but at the end the day, especially when it comes to self help, I'm looking for things that work. These CDs from Caroline Myss are working for me.

Here's what I found very unique about Caroline's material: she makes many concepts, such as Chakras, accessible for me. Up to know I've seen them as "could be interesting but seems like new age babble." From what Caroline says in the CDs, that's how she saw all of this stuff too, until some things happened in her life and she ended up with a new point of view. Key point here: she isn't a woo-woo "stars and magic" person. She's blunt and practical. At one point she says something like this "I want to give you the science of Chakras...I like explaining these things like machines, so you see that this is real, not just made up stuff." By bringing this into practical, almost scientific terms, it's accessible to me. On tape 6, some of what she talks about was a bit out there for me, but hey, that's alright. The core of the content is very practical and can be experienced day to day.

Caroline has interesting things to say about spirituality and religion as well. She comes off as a very spiritual person, but there didn't seem to be a given religion behind that. Interesting.

Several people have commented on Caroline's style. Here's my take. Caroline is blunt and direct. She isn't warm and fuzzy. She *is* funny. She *is* a great speaker. She *is* very bright and good at quickly building to "the point." She isn't nurturing. I'm at a point where I'm really ready to take action, and ready to make some changes. I was taken aback a few times through the CDs, but that's OK. I'm ready to take some emotional bruises in order to move forward. I think it's worth it. I'm tired of finishing interesting self-help books, putting them down, and then finding that nothing in my life is different. I'm seeing lots of changes already from the way that Caroline's CDs are challenging me.

I've also seen some comments that Caroline seems overly confident in herself. I can see where that impression may come from. Here's the thing--I don't see her strength and confidence coming out of pride or need for recognition. I think it comes from having a very solid basis in what she says, and also in being very aligned in her work as a teacher. She has important information to get across. Is everything she says 100% right? Who knows? You will get an undiluted point of view on how things work though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Energy Anatomy, August 26, 2000

By	Kathy Blanch (Spokane, Wa USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Energy Anatomy: The Science of Personal Power, Spirituality, and Health (With Study Guide) (Audio Cassette)

This tape set by Carolyn Myss is the best I have heard. I have read her books, seen her seminars and listened to her other tapes. When I got this set, I listened to it once and then started over. Everytime I listen I learn more. I am a RN/counselor and this has been a favorite with my pts also. I can't tell you how positively it has influenced the people I work with.....It puts you in control of your mind and body and ultimately your spirit and overall health in all these areas. A master piece!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is my #1 for 2002 and the year is not even half over!, April 30, 2002

By	Amisha B. Mehta "amylovesbooks" (Torrance, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For those of you open to new age thoughts and beliefs, this book is a godsend, it contains information that I have been searching for and have not been able to find anywhere else. Go on to the third paragraph for my review.

The book was loaned to me by my chiropractor, so if you're skeptical about nontraditional methods of healing, read no further, this review would be a waste of your time, and mine. Do not vote negatively just because alternative healing falls outside your religious beliefs, you are not doing anyone a justice.

For those of you that are still reading, this book is a wonderful introduction into the science of energy and healing. Myss goes into the chakras and how certain health issues can stem from specific kinds of stress and/or emotional blockages - it is well worth a read. I'm reviewing the audiocasette version, but her style is graceful enough that the actual book should be just as easy to understand. I look forward to reading more of her works, and plan to send copies of this book to my loved ones. How wonderful would it be if all illnesses could be cured, without the intervention of modern medicine as we know it?
