Speaks from the Heart

Meredith speaks from the Heart with compassion and gentle wisdom. She gracefully guides us to our still point within as we journey to love's true fulfillment. The daily activities that she includes in each chapter are practical and powerful. This book is a gift for all those who long to realize that Spirit Heals. ~ Katie Davis, Awake Joy: The Essence of Enlightenment

True Healing

I highly recommend Spirit Heals for anyone who is looking to heal their body and make a deeper and very personal connection to Spirit. I have read all of Meredith Young-Sowers' books and find they contain the highest healing wisdom I have ever come across. I have also attended her workshops which have been phenomenal. She has a real gift for bringing people home to their True Selves, where God abides. From this place true healing can occur.

Wise Woman Wisdom

Each page of this gentle, loving, beautifully written book is filled with so much wisdom that it staggers the mind to know that it comes from the pen of a single author. It moves easily and seamlessly through scientific, practical and guidance information to links with stories both personal and anecdotal to illustrate the topic being discussed. Chapters start with a quote from authors both ancient and new that alone would be worth the price of the book. There is, however, so much more. The book is divided into six parts starting with the art and science of healing and on through the interplay of the female mind, body and spirit that are integral to healing. There are questions to ask and attitude shifts to make included in each chapter. The final part of the book teaches one how to arrive at wholeness by stepping into the center of one's life. Relationships, anger management, stress and their links to specific physical ailments is a fascinating read. The recommended healing practices for them is equally intriguing. This book will not disappoint and one arrives at the end of it with an empowering wisdom. Highly recommended.

Spirit Heals

Mostly, we live our lives oblivious to everything important. We rush around trying to get twenty things done at once. We pretend to listen to our loved ones but are actually distracted by our own thoughts. We ignore our feelings, our bodies, and our spirits. Then, along comes reality. We find a lump. We get chest pains. We get so tired that we can hardly function. Suddenly, we have no choice, we have to rest and we have to listen to our bodies. In the depths of such a change, life doesn't seem fair. With this said, the majority of people who go through such traumatic changes find greater meaning and even joy in their situation. How can we get through this pain? How can we get past the bitterness to find love and acceptance? How can we find the courage to look within? Spirit Heals fully supports and encourages us along this path. It includes the stories of women just like us. It also contains all sorts of exercises that bring us closer to our true selves. Like a good friend who is able to tell us the truth and then stand by us come what may.

An invaluable spiritual guide

The author is a very gifted spiritual healer with everyday wisdom for all of us. This book is the distillation of her teachings and wisdom in a beautiful book that all can relate to. I also want to add that I think that men could also benefit from the teachings in this book, they are so universal, no matter what your gender or religious background. These teachings are for all us, for we can all benefit from connecting to spirit, and the author helps us to connect with that part of us in a beautiful and accessible way.
