And Myss emphasizes--contradictory as it seems--that illness can be a stage in spiritual growth, "an unparalleled catalyst for expanding personal consciousness." Why People Dont Heal includes a chapter that defines five myths about healing, including "My life is defined by my wound," "Being healthy means being alone," "Feeling pain means being destroyed by pain," "Illness is the result of negativity," aŽnd "True change is impossible." Why People Dont Heal is stocked with stories and Mysss no-nonsense, hard-hitting insights.
