Sister John has devoted her life to serving God. For almost 30 years she has lived in a Carmelite monastery near Los Angeles. There, she experiences religious visions of such intensity that she is revered by the other nuns. But these visions also bring on excruciating headaches. When she is offered an operation that may stop the pain, she realizes that it may also stop the visions.

Body Language Psychologist and Stress Consultant, Dean Fraser, takes us on an evocative journey through his own and other people's lives. The story begins with himself as a child and his need to overcome certain challenges in order to live a full life. We hear of those discovering the root causes of their unhappiness or the others recognising that the dramatic turmoil they find themselves in really does afford them the opportunity to do what they always dreamed of. Never has the expression it's darkest before dawn been more relevant than to our lives in this 21st Century!
