I found this medition years ago in the book, Guided Meditations, Explorations and Healings, also by Stephen Levine. I used it quite effectively in the early part of my own healing from incest. I've used it over and over again with clients to help them open up to the memories buried in the tissues of their uterus, yoni and pelvis for very gentle emotional release work. Blessed Be, Jeremiah

In many ways this is a helpful set of (2) tapes. There is an introduction, and three meditations following. The first meditation walks your awareness through the entire body, so that you can learn to be more aware of yourself as a physical being.The second tape is a similar meditation focusing on the pelvic region. Third,there is a loving-kindness meditation, to help you connect with all beings in need of healing, and to share your healing energy with them. I liked how Levine included this part, because it makes us aware we are not isolated in our suffering. The only problem with the tapes is that they are narrated by him, and he is a man with a man's voice. This is especially disconcerting when doing the second meditation. He mentions this issue in the introduction, and says that you can make your own tape in your own voice or a friend's. The tapes come with a transcript so you can indeed easily make your own tapes in a safe voice. However, I think it might have been better if in the first place he had had his wife and working partner Ondrea read the text on the tapes. Still, his heart is in the right place and I did find the tapes helpful.
