Deep within us are many chambers of consciousness, sources of healing and transformation waiting to be discovered. In this unique and powerful imagery journey, psychologist and visualization expert Dr. Jan Berlin guides you into these innermost chambers. Once there, you can relinquish everyday distractions, replenish your energy, release old negative ideas, free your capacities for personal transformation and contact the wisdom and power of your own Higher Self.

Listener Reviews & Comments
Although the gentle intention is evident in Dr. Berlin's voice, I was one of those who found the quality distracting. He has a sing-songy delivery so overtly soothing that it had the reverse effect on me. I would have preferred he use the more natural voice heard in his intro for the imagery section as well. (I did think his intro on track two was effective for people not used to imagery and not too long, although I could have done without the promo on the first track.) No music is better than bad music, so the lack of accompaniment did not bother me. A number of people really like Berlin's voice and message, so if there are still no sound samples available at Amazon at the time you are considering this CD, trot on over to CD Baby and listen to the their samples for this and other offerings from Berlin. Unfortunately, you won't really get into much imagery, as the intros are long, but you'll be able to tell if you like his voice and style or not. I also, like another reviewer, found the constant reassurances distracting and rather infantilizing, and I disliked much of the vocabulary used, hitting on many buzzwords of new age self-examination ("manifesting," etc.). These caveats aside, the imagery of the visualization is decent, with the listener progressing into different chambers of a cave and encountering different visions and experiences in each one. There is enough space in the meditation to allow your mind to work, and I did get some spontaneous images and insights while following the meditation. The elements were a bit more rote and not as imaginative as I was hoping for, but my expectations may be too high. I am very drawn to the symbol of the cave and keep looking for a great cave meditation I have yet to find--probably dreaming of Ishi's cave, Merlin's cave, Plato's cave and the caves of Lascaux all rolled into one!
