The Lifelong Physical Emotional Psychological and Social Effects of Circumcision
(And How to Heal Them)
“Congratulations on the best presentation I have heard on circumcision.”
The late Jeanine Parvati Baker, author of “Conscious Conception”, “Hygieia, A Woman’s Herbal” and “Prenatal Yoga”
Over 18 years ago I began to investigate the phenomena of body memory in adult males of male infant circumcision.
Years ago I wrote about it like this:
One night after Rachana and I had been loving, I was lying next to her and I said, " I'm feeling really weird. I'm starting to feel really little." She said, "Just allow yourself to feel that way." OK, so it was safe to feel. I started to spiral down until I was feeling very, very young. My consciousness started to follow that pattern of going back, back, back, and then all of a sudden I felt a violent searing pain around the edge of my penis. Bingo! I was right back in circumcision trauma. Right back with the memory of my penis being circumcised. That memory is there, embedded in the tissue, with every man who's ever been circumcised.
My sense of the structure of it is this: a boy child is born, open and looking to connect with the mother, to be protected, nurtured, and nourished, to be enfolded in the way that he has been for nine months. At some point there the child is taken away from the mother and circumcision happens.
So what impinges into the male child's consciousness is that, "the mother has let this happen to me, she has been party to the pain", and then an anger develops that is structurally held in that scar.
This mp3 audio recording is the culmination of that investigation and contains much new information on the lifelong impact of the circumcision act.
It also shows hope because much of the damage can be healed using cautious, sensitive techniques.
This work contains a general context for understanding how some cultures became circumcising societies.
This is a one hour presentation entitled “Healing Circumcision” which received a standing ovation at the Global Inspiration Conference in Brisbane in 2003.

We want this material and the healing techniques to become widely known.
Having experienced the process described in this audio presentation, Jim Morningstar of Transformations USA wrote,
“This felt like a giant step to recovery of my whole self, a missing piece dealt with very little in most of the recovery work I have studied and experienced over the last 30 years. Healing circumcision is healing the deepest planetary attitudes of separation from the ecstasy of being fully balanced and alive men and women.”
What changes does the process of healing circumcision bring?
Below are some of the comments from men who have explored this deep level of healing.
The Changes
“After the session I felt like I had more available space in my genitals, that I had cleared darker energies out from around my penis and particularly around the scar of the old operation.”
“It’s not actually a scar as such but is the scene of the crime all those years ago. I feel the journey is not over yet and there are more layers of this onion to peel but the journey is well and truly begun. I feel lighter around my penis, balls and anus and I’ve noticed that during lovemaking I am having more intense orgasms and that my energy is somehow more available and more fluid in traveling from this area up and around my body. The itching and mild red rashes have also largely stopped.”

“Since the healing, (3 weeks as I write), I have noticed myself to be more soft and open-hearted in relating with my partner. She has also observed the difference in the way I relate.”
“In the process I felt hurt towards my Mother as I saw visions of her, for allowing this circumcision, and I felt anger towards other females and I saw how that had manifested in my relationships with women.
In the process I was able to forgive my Mother for her involvement in the circumcision.
I feel the process has offered me a great shift in my body and my life. I am not sure in which way this has occurred as yet.”
“Writing this right now, I remember that my partner and I shared a very intimate love making session about a week ago. It was a very intimate moment and I feel that I trusted her on another level outside of my consciousness at that time. I feel more comfortable about being nude, and about my penis.”
“Since the session I certainly have a different awareness around my penis. It is hard to articulate it seems that I have reconnected to its innocence. Perhaps it has reconnected to its pre-circumcision state of innocence and it is that which I am experiencing.”
“I can positively say that the act of cutting my genitals at birth has profoundly influenced the way I have acted, felt and related to the world and its people.
Healing the trauma that was locked into my organic body, has and will continue to change my life dramatically. I masturbate with more gentleness and respect for my penis and enter the space of lovemaking with a softer, more open energy. Undoubtedly the greatest blessing of all was even though my mother died over 16 years ago, I can actually feel her love and presence inside me now.
I feel only joy and relief that the traumatic memory of circumcision can be released from the body and healed.”
“This process was so real and profound. I was dubious at first but afterwards I felt blessed, it was truly amazing. Circumcision is trauma, I do not recommend being a victim. No boy of mine would be subjected to this barbaric act.”
These comments are portions of extensive reports on the healing circumcision process.
