Everyone we know who's read this book has said how wonderful it made them feel. It takes us to the heart of the age-old Celtic spiritual tradition - which still echoes in the blood of so many of us - and helps us to enter consciously the world of the Anam Cara, the 'soul friend'. For the essence of ancient Celtic spirituality, says John O'Donohue, was the ability to perceive, revere and befriend the soul in all things - in others, in the self, in nature, in solitude, in life and in death. In this friendly, reverent awareness lies a tremendous, transfiguring power, - the power to bring the inner world of the soul to life, for yourself and for those around you, and to walk and live within it.

Dr Caroline Myss, who is herself able to diagnose illness by intuitive means, explores the links between spiritual and emotional stresses and the specific illnesses these create in different parts of the human energy system. She also presents a unique model of the body's seven centres of spiritual and physical power in which she synthesizes the ancient wisdom of three spiritual traditions - the Hindu chakras, the Christian sacraments and the Kabbalah's Tree of Life. With this model, Dr Myss shows how you can develop your own latent powers of intuition. As you begin to understand the anatomy of your spirit, you will discover the spiritual causes of illness, how to sense and correct an energy imbalance before it expresses itself as physical illness, and how to recover emotionally and physically from an illness you may already have.
