About the Artist

He founded Sacred Lens as a vehicle for making the power of guided imagery accessible to people around the world.

The Ceremony of the Cave
This imagery journey inside the Earth's womb provides a commanding metaphor for rebirth, purification, claiming power and receiving spiritual wisdom. Feel the heartbeat of the planet as you explore its inner realms - and your own. How will you image your integration with the elements? The answer rests deep within your subconscious mind - and deep within the sacred cave.

Uses:
By capturing the sheer force of the elements, The Ceremony of the Cave becomes an excellent vehicle for spiritual transformation, releasing past obstacles and stepping into a place of power. This CD is especially popular with athletes, creative artists, health professionals and those on a spiritual path.

Reviews:
"The Ceremony of the Cave creates an opportunity to turn inward for cleansing, offering, healing and manifesting. This guided journey proved very powerful to me - it is relaxing, rewarding and refreshing. Through the use of this CD, I now understand that there is no limit to what you can heal, cleanse and give, not only for yourself but for others as well. In today's self-help marketplace, it is hard to find a resource of such quality - I give it the highest marks."

"I have taken a journey to the cave many times, and to the soul of gratitude many times as well. On each journey another nuance of the imagery attracts me, captures me, and provides a subtle new experience. Some parts of the imagery have become touchstones for me throughout my day. I can't wait for the next imagery journey."

I listen to The Ceremony of the Cave between three and five times per week, and with each journey, I reach new levels of healing, clarity and inner peace. I cannot say enough about this powerful and beautiful CD. It has definitely changed my life in ways that I didn't even know were possible.

In listening to The Ceremony of the Cave, I experienced it as a healing journey into myself. Knowledge and feelings that were not immediately accessible became clearer and gave me a deeper understanding concerning some issues that I had been working on. The gentleness and sense of caring that I felt on the CD by Dr. Berlin contributed to my willingness to participate in the adventure and enabled me to bring to awareness thoughts I otherwise may not have encountered. I found this a useful tool for both stress reduction and self-knowledge and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking greater awareness. I also think it would be an excellent adjunctive tool for therapists to use with their clients.
