I had bought the audio tape years ago after I attended a John Bradshaw/Steve Halperin Workshop on "The Inner Child." I have found the meditations to be very helpful. When I'm tired, scared, or depressed, I lay down and listen to either or both meditations. I may do this to get centered and/or receive messages from my "Higher Power." Listening to John's voice and message and Steven's gentle music also releases the stress in my body. The sound of Johns voice is very pleasant, a rich baritone.He has a way with words and a gift for speaking. I usually get up after my meditation and feel rejuvenated; physically, emotionally and spiritually.Sometimes I listen to John Bradshaw's 11th step meditations as I go to sleep. I normally have good REM sleep as a consequence. John's resonant voice and Steve Halperin's soothing music are magical together. Steve Halperin, for his part, is an talented, intuitive musician,very much aware of how music can effect the body and he plays accordingly. For example, myy heart rate and breathing rate synchronize into a peaceful descent into a safe "place" during the mediations.In conclusion, I highly recommend this CD!

John Bradshaw and Steve Halpern team up to give us a guide to the 11th step meditation. They have a very helpful and insightful discussion on side one about meditation and meditation music. On side two there is a 6 minute and a fifteen minute meditation. I have listened to both of these many times. The short one is great when you have a few minutes at work or anytime you need to come apart for a while. The longer meditation is a guided journey that is very relaxing. I would recommend this tape to any one looking for a meditation tape whether he is in recovery or not.
