Encoded within your body, teaches Caroline Myss, is an energy system linking you directly to the world's great spiritual traditions. Through it, you have direct access to the divine energy that seamlessly connects all life. On Anatomy of the Spirit, Myss offers a stunning picture of the human body's hidden energetic structures, while revealing its precise spiritual code and relationship to the sacred energy of creation.

this book is a successful call for awakening, since more often than not healers cannot teach and teachers cannot heal.

i could rave forever about this book. the author is a medical intuitive (someone who can read someone's energy and determine their illness). she explores seven sacred truths and how each truth is related to a specific chakra, sacrament and tree of life. it was really interesting the way she weaves

all of the spiritual information from different traditions to distill universal truths. the case histories were astounding. the first part of the book she gives her history, how she discovered her gift and the journey she has taken from the early days to the present. then each chapter focuses on one chakra. she delves deeply into the energy of each chakra and how it relates to its corresponding sacrament/tree of life and at the end of each chapter are self-examination questions. it was such an enlightening and life-changing book. she says our biography is our biology and we can't separate our spirits from our bodies or from our experiences. every experience, thought, emotion is stored in our energy, in our spirit and can create blocks, which are the source of our illnesses and dis-ease.

This book and the audiotapes on the same subject had a lasting effect on my life. I have continued to revisit her works, and always I understand more from her. I am impressed by the truth she finds common to all major faith traditions and our biological and psychological realities.

This book has given me great insight on personal growth and the relation between the spirit, the body and energy. It is very easy to read, with concrete examples and lots of questions that allow personal evaluation. It doesn't matter what your faith is, there is something that will speak to everyone

Myss explores and explains the chakras, drawing parallels to the 7 Sacraments. This is an excellent resource for anyone commited to healing themselves. Highly recommended as a read-through and as a continuing resource.
