The Challenge of Our Time: To Know Your Light and Wield Your True Power If you don’t understand the nature of evil, how can you be a force for good? As Caroline Myss teaches, “evil” and “good” are not simply abstract concepts—they are fundamental cosmic energies you can learn to feel in your body and soul. With The Courage to Confront Evil, Caroline Myss delivers one of her most powerful presentations yet: a sweeping training in the practice of standing in your own light and integrity, so every choice you make becomes an act of healing in this extraordinary and challenging period of human history.

Every act of love weakens the forces of hate. Every act of compassion and grace weakens evil’s legislation against humanity.” The Courage to Confront Evil is a clarion call for you to discover your role in this great unfolding of human evolution—and to become an “instrument of holy power” as only you can.

Anatomy of the Spirit is the first book to unify Eastern and Western spiritual healing into a programme for physical healing and personal power. In this breakthrough view of mind, body and spirit, Caroline Myss demonstrates that the seven stages through which everyone must pass in the search for consciousness and spiritual maturity are the same in all traditions and are also the same seven stages for healing.During her many years of research into the power centres of the body, Myss has uncovered strong evidence that each illness we develop corresponds to a very specific pattern of emotional and psychological stress and that certain beliefs and attitudes influence corresponding areas of the human body. For example, fears regarding financial stress affect the health of the lower back; emotional barriers to experiencing love undermine the health of the heart. A strong need to control others or your environment influences the health of the sexual area of your body. Caroline also discusses in depth why people do not heal and the reasons why we often find ourselves in difficult circumstances that never seem to change.

A Compelling Guide to the Ultimate Spiritual Revolution They rose up to challenge the status quo and shake the foundations of our world. Francis of Assisi, Teresa of Avila, Mother Mary, and divine rebels throughout the ages—their true legacy is not what they did in their time on earth, but the eternal beacon that they held up for each of us to follow. On Divine Rebels, Caroline Myss and Andrew Harvey offer you an opportunity and a challenge—to listen for the same divine voice that called to history's greatest spiritual trailblazers, and to answer it in your own life. Essential Training for an Insurgency of Truth and Love "If you are ready to put your soul in charge of your life instead of your ego, you are ready for your own rebellion," teaches Caroline Myss. Inspired by mystics such as Rumi, Sri Aurobindo, and Saint John of the Cross, Myss and Harvey have created a map for the journey to your own awakening. The first stage, they teach, is to overthrow the harmful and false beliefs we hold about ourselves—that we are small, unworthy, and isolated from the divine. Once you have grasped that revolutionary idea, you can begin to usurp the dominion of the ego and overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of your true purpose. Every one of us will hear the call in our lives—a drive to act that starts with the soul and expresses itself as a radical transformation in the way we live. The lesson of the divine rebel is that when we offer ourselves wholly to do what the divine asks of us, the power of grace will come flooding into our lives. Divine Rebels is a training course in finding the inspiration and courage to answer your own call—and discover for yourself why the ultimate rebellion is love. Music by Jon Samson HIGHLIGHTS Untold stories of saints, sages, and mystics—what we can learn from their struggles and triumphs • Honoring the great "yes"—the convergence of the sacred masculine and sacred feminine in our time • How spontaneous healings and miracles are an act of defiance—and what they defy • Why a mystic must be willing to challenge the divine—and to completely surrender • The steps of initiation to becoming a divine rebel • Love and truth—the essential pillars of a spiritual revolution • The dark night of the soul—how this spiritual crucible burns away the blockages between who we are and what we can be • Rumi and Shams, John and Teresa—the evolutionary nature of divine rebel partnerships • More than nine hours of fierce wisdom, revelatory teachings, and compassionate guidance for our soul's most transformative journey Course objectives: Discuss the steps of initiation in becoming a divine rebel, including more than one dark night of the soul, preparing you to walk a path of truth and love for the ultimate spiritual revolution. • Observe stories of saints, sages, and mystics—including the evolutionary nature of divine rebel partnerships--and learn from both their struggles and triumphs. • Summarize the value of the convergence of the sacred masculine and sacred feminine in our time. • Observe fierce wisdom, revelatory teachings, and compassionate guidance for your soul's most transformative journey.
