I admire Dr. Virtue and her Healing with the Angel cards are absolutely incredible. But when I purchased this tape, I expected something a little more educational.

The message I took from this is that if you pray and visualize, your negative karma can be taken away. It seems like the meditation just focuses on and repeats that message, which I found overly simplistic.

The tape is ok for neophytes -- but if you're looking for something with a little more meat, try some of her other materials. Even for neophytes, I would highly recommend Marianne Williamson's Return to Love tape over this one.

Doreen Virtue is a psychologist and Spirtual Seeker who has found her path using the archetypes of angels.

This is a simple CD that is based upon the idea that there are old patterns, beliefs and wounds that have followed each soul from previous incarnations. However, no belief in past lives or even in Angels is needed to benefit from this CD. Simply Stated, "Karma Realeasing: CLearing Away Painful Patterns from Your Past" is about forgiving yourself and surrendering to God.

No matter what your faith tradition, everyone can benefit from this simple but powerful affirmation.
