New York Times best-selling author Caroline Myss investigates the mystical phenomenon of healing and the presence of grace in every life.

What is grace? How does grace work? How do I know if I've ever had an experience of grace in my life? For decades, readers and students have turned to medical intuitive Caroline Myss for answers to these essential questions. In these pages, she takes readers on a transformative journey to investigate the "holy authority" of grace and find tools to heal themselves and their lives.

Originally published as Defy Gravity, this searching and eloquent book offers a message that we need now more than ever. Inspired by ordinary people who overcame a wide array of physical and psychological ailments, Caroline dove into the works of the great mystics to gain a deeper understanding of healing's spiritual underpinnings. Using what she discovered, she invites us into an intimate and healing engagement with the soul, which we experience through exploring our seven shadow passions, building an empowered inner self around our seven inherent graces, and learning how to work with the mystical laws that govern it.

With this knowledge, you can break through the boundaries of ordinary reason. You can heal from illness, heartbreak, and pain. You can learn to live fearlessly. And you can start to discern the guidance of grace in every moment of your life.
