Our mismanagement of our environment finds support in a condition known as Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), or EI (environmental illness). It is a poorly understood phenomenon that has no scientifically accepted definition or treatment. It is clear though that the development of physical symptoms occur in some people after exposure to chemical substances. Authors Sampson and Hughes have both experienced the complexities and pervasive nature of MCS in their lives. Their book is written to accelerate the personal healing of anyone suffering from any form of environmental illness. After exhaustive attempts to heal themselves through conventional methods, they moved beyond feeling victimized by physical symptoms. Instead, they learned how to interpret them as communications from their bodies about unexpressed emotions and various structures they had created in their lives which no longer supported them. Drawing on conventional and more recent healing methods [channeling energy work and kinesiology for example] Breaking out of Environmental Illness will be welcomed by anyone who has experienced this near-invisible illness.

It tells the story of how a physician and a nurse liberate themselves from a common debilitating condition.
