Caroline Myss

Vocation

American medical intuitive and author of a book that addresses holistic medicine and alternative treatments. Caroline Myss grew up in the Chicago area with two siblings in a Catholic family. She earned her B.A. in Journalism in 1974, and started her career as a free-lance writer until attending a Kubler-Ross seminar, which led to a crises of meaning. After attending Mundelein college, where she got her masters in theology in 1979, she earned her Ph.D. in Energy Medicine in 1996. Myss started Stillpoint Publishing Company in New Hampshire at the same time that she acknowledged her medical intuitive abilities. She started working with holistic doctors and, with Dr. Norman Shealy, co-wrote "The Creation of Health." Harvard-trained neurosurgeon C. Norman Shealy estimates her medical intuitive readings to be 93% accurate. Returning to Chicago, Myss worked in her mother’s den to write "Anatomy of the Spirit." Settling in the Oak Park area, she continued writing, teaching, and counseling. In 1994 she stopped giving private medical intuitive readings, opting instead to deliver her message to a wider audience through lectures and workshops. Within two years her workshops grew to the point that each averaged about 1,000 people. Her schedule is booked two years in advance. A prominent figure in holistic consciousness, she appears on such noted TV talk shows as "Oprah." Link to Wikipedia biography
