What if the worst thing that ever happened to you was actually the greatest gift? That's the radical perspective shift Dr. Lynn Carey experienced after losing her father at 12, undergoing spinal surgery at 14, and spending years in chronic pain—only to discover a "grace state" that completely transformed her understanding of healing, purpose, and life itself.
In a world where we're constantly told to fear illness, financial instability, and uncertainty, Dr. Carey's story offers a refreshingly different path. Her journey from a sick teenager to a successful chiropractor to someone living in what she calls "the grace state" challenges everything we've been taught about healing and human potential.
Here are the most powerful insights from her remarkable journey:
• The emotional root of physical illness: Dr. Carey discovered that her scoliosis manifested because "the emotional cause behind a crooked spine is you're being pulled in two directions"—between what society told her and what her inner wisdom knew to be true
• Why her father's death became her greatest empowerment: Losing everything at 12 gave her a fearlessness that most people never develop: "There's nothing—what else could you take from me? So I have this fearlessness behind me because of that"
• The philosophy that changed everything: When she heard "The power that made the body heals the body" in chiropractic school, it was the first time she encountered truth that resonated with her soul—opening up "a whole new world of a path outside of the mainstream matrix"
• Living from the "grace state": After her spiritual awakening, she realized that "when you feel that life force inside of you, you're in a very high vibration and the problems that we think we have as humans really dissolve because they're laughable"
• The real key to healing: It's not just diet and exercise—"We're really here to follow our dreams and to be happy. And part of that is financial freedom, relationship freedom, really creating your desired life"
What struck me most about Dr. Carey's story is her unwavering belief that everyone has access to this same inner wisdom and healing power. As she puts it: "I want people to know that there is a higher power inside of you... If you can tap into that life force for all areas of your life—your health, your wealth, your relationships—it's getting in tune with that inner voice that is the grace state."
Her book "My Journey to Grace" was born during the 2020 lockdowns when she felt compelled to share her healing story with a world gripped by fear. What emerged was a roadmap for anyone seeking to break free from the limitations society places on us and step into their own power.
Watch the full interview to discover Dr. Carey's complete transformation story, including her mission work in Brazil and India, and the specific practices that keep her living from this "grace state" every day.
P.S. Dr. Carey hints that another book is in the works based on her continued growth and expansion over the past few years. Given how much wisdom she packed into this first book and interview, I can't wait to see what insights she shares next.
