For more than 32 years, Stephen and Ondrea Levine have provided emotional and spiritual support to those who face life-threatening illness and their caregivers; deeply affecting hundreds of thousands of people in the process. The Healing I Took Birth For, which was begun after Ondrea's own medical prognosis that foretold the end of a lifetime of spiritual exploration, is the culmination of her work. Their collaboration, in the service of the dying, especially during the height of the AIDS epidemic, set them both more deeply on the path of compassion--compassion for self, for others, for all.
The Healing I Took Birth For is the heartfelt sharing of Ondrea's life of service and a deeply inspiring example of how one faces illness and great personal difficulties, with a deep spiritual practice and grace. It is the most "intimate collaboration" she and Stephen have worked on and it will inspire readers to find their own way toward living a life of compassion.

Review "We have been patiently waiting for The Healing I Took Birth For. It is a deeply inspiring account of a life devoted to healing and compassionate service. This beautiful book is filled with grace, love, and humanity. Like a pearl diver, Ondrea dives deep in her own wounds to find the gift that can serve others." --Frank Ostaseski, founder of the Metta Institute"For decades, Ondrea and Stephen have offered themselves in selfless service to all beings who seek a way home within. Once again, they freely share the intimacies of their lives as dharmic teaching for us all. In telling her story, Ondrea validates and elucidates the path of transforming pain into peace. Ondrea's story is one of her awakening to the beauty of her True Nature. It is also a love story of how the two hearts of Ondrea and Stephen beat as One Heart." --Paula Whang-Ramos, M.Div., Ph.D., psychologist, minister at Center for Spiritual Enlightenment; Rich Ramos, R.N., M.S., Pediatric Oncology Nurse at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital"Absorbing these vital heart waves of one life. Congratulations on rotating the axis of the universe. Still quivering." --Gary Gach, Buddhist teacher, author, and translator"As a hospice physician who deals with illness and impending death, I have learned, from Ondrea, the difference between curing the body and healing the shared heart. Ondrea has touched the lives of so many people, and this book will extend her healing work from those who have experienced her compassionate presence to those who will get to know her through her open-hearted words. She is an inspiration to me and to countless others who have been graced by her teachings." --Fred Schwartz, M.D."Ondrea Levine's book reveals her courageous willingness to face the inner linings of her heart and the fearful caverns of her ego-mind. The honesty and transparency of her self-exploration is filled with a sensitivity, grace, gentleness, and wisdom that represents the One. Ondrea paves the way for the reader to follow her in an amazing commitment to a uniquely beautiful journey of the heart. This book is truly a love story of how two extraordinary people become one heart as they face the challenges of illness, pain, and death--not seeing them as enemies, but as an exploration of their way to freedom." --Gerald. G. Jampolsky, M.D., founder of Attitudinal Healing; Diane V. Cirincione, Ph.D., CEO of Attitudinal Healing International"I read this wise and loving journal avidly, with deep gratitude and delight. These intimate old Dharma friends share how broken hearts, nakedly encountering death and mortality, can catalyze open hearts and selfless service. Their grace-full co-meditations and very special brand of partner spirituality will edify and enrich us all." --Lama Surya Das, author of Awakening the Buddha Within and Buddha Standard Time"In The Healing I Took Birth For, Stephen not only autobiographically accounts Ondrea's life, her selfless service, bouts with illnesses, writings, workshops and more, but takes their teachings to a more intimate place than ever before. Through implementing the insights, wisdom, and knowledge shared in The Healing I Took Birth For, I can unequivocally say that I am a better human being because of it." --Chris Grosso, www.TheIndieSpiritualist.com"I have been a huge fan of Stephen and Ondrea Levine's work for many years. Their deep, healing and transformative teachings have had a profound impact on my life. They are authentic teachers of great wisdom and heart." --Marci Shimoff, New York Times bestselling author, Happy for No Reason"This is a brave and intimate, tender and healing story. Great love, strong medicine, just what the heart needs." --Jack Kornfield, author of The Wise Heart"What a story! And how amazing it seemed as I followed the growth or maturation or . . . or expansion of mind and spirit of someone already so obviously ready, 33 years ago, to hop aboard the same spiritual train where you were punching tickets." --Lee Quarnstrom, writer-practioner-prankster"Rarely are we offered the privilege of sharing in the rigorously honest, humbly genuine, and deeply authentic inner pilgrimage of another human being. This is the story of how Ondrea was shaped by a symphony of forces--broken open by people, events and winds that blew both harsh and gentle; punishing and uplifting; through darkness and light. Ondrea is a gift to us all. She shares remarkable clarity, insight and counsel for us to hold dear, to cherish, and to pass on to those souls brave enough to follow Love wherever it may take." --Wayne Muller, best-selling author of Sabbath, and A Life of Being, Having, and Doing Enough"This book is an enheartening masterpiece. I have never felt my heart so close to the surface when reading a book. Ondrea Levine is living proof that grace is not something that pours down from the heavens; it is something that rises up from within us. Reading her story is a blessing not in disguise. This book is the perfect preparation for an enheartened life." --Jeff Brown, author of Soulshaping: A Journey of Self-Creation"The steadfast union of Ondrea and Stephen that forged a path of healing for so many over the past decades now takes us on an unparalleled inner journey. Her story offers guidance for all those who have been wounded in life, and all those who strive to keep their hearts open. Life events alternating with poetic teachings catalyze both the mind and spirit. Wise, touching, tender and pure, her generosity and honesty will be a source of inspiration for all." --Francine Shapiro, Ph.D., originator of EMDR therapy, author of Getting Past Your Past"...enlightening and heart opening." --Sharon Salzberg, author of Real Happiness"In this exceptional book, Ondrea uses the depth of her mind and heart to heal her body and finds, in her suffering, compassion." --Ram Dass, author of Be Here Now and Still Here"Interweaving her own story with perennial teachings on mindfulness practice and devotional yoga. This book is a profound healing." --Miribai Starr

By Bhavani Brown The Healing I Took Birth ForThis WONDERFUL book is not only Ondrea's love story but also the healing made possible for her emergence into this world! I loved the weavings of her portrayals brought together with her personal drama and `the paying special attention' of her inner world. The personal difficulties deeply resonated with me!! I found myself choking up many times at various heart wrenching passages.The book is poetically written expressing well how she coped with her upbringing and the many challenges of her brain disorder and serious illnesses. Ondrea is a role model for healing us all with the many twists and turns of her ever-present struggles. I believe that she rebirthed herself into a being that is loving, forgiving, content and insightful. She is and has been so willing to extend loving kindness, service and compassion to others!! As Ondrea so beautifully put it, "The gift in the wound sends mercy to others."The book also has some great little treasures or techniques that can be quite helpful for practices that can bring one into loving awareness.

I picked up my copy at the post office and started reading it on the way home. I couldn't put it down! I read for three solid hours until I finished it. It is simply beautifully written. But what makes this a spiritual classic, is the way the author tells her story. Like the "Autobiograpy of a Yogi", Ondrea takes YOU along on her journey. You go with her. She includes YOU. She takes YOU with HER. From birth. Wow! What a ride! How can you not change? She tells you everything! And you are there with her in the front seat! This makes this a rare autobiography. BECAUSE YOU ARE SEEING THROUGH HER EYES. Did you ever see "Lady in the Lake" with Robert Montgomery? In that movie, Montgomery plays a private eye who is replaced by a camera. You see what the hero is seeing. In this spiritual classic, you will see everything that Ondrea sees. How can an autobiography be any better? To include the reader so that the reader is with her. I couldn't put the book down. She is a brillant writer. This will become a spiritual classic.Let's begin at the beginning. I don't want to ruin this incredible classic for you. But let's begin at the beginning.A real large part of this story seems to have to do with one word. DYSLEXIA. This may have very well made her what she is today. We all think in THOUGHTS and IMAGES. With Dyslexia, this is interrupted. Throughout this journey, her dyslexia seems to have seperated her from others in such a way that she developed an incredible urge to really understand and touch people. Most of us are really quite judgemental. But her dyslexia seemed to set off some sort of great need to understand and help others without the judgemental process. I think it created a lot of doubt about herself. And this created a great need to touch others. Was it worth it? As you read, I think you will understand some of the cost. Obviously, it was and still continues to be a very hard road. But she seems to be doing it! Why don't you join her on this journey? You will have many adventures. Such as when Ondrea becomes expert at lucid dreaming and sees her boyfriend making out in a car with another woman. So she gets in her car and confronts them. And boy was he suprised! Buy the book and start reading. Thank you.

A Timeless Read By Drawingstatic Through the years, few contemporary spiritual teachers have affected my path as much as that of Stephen and Ondrea Levine. The Levine's teachings on forgiveness (both self and others), loving-kindness, healing, and mindfulness, have continually guided me towards living a more authentic and compassionate life, here, and now. In their latest book, The Healing I Took Birth For, Stephen not only autobiographically accounts Ondrea's life, her selfless service, bouts with illnesses, writings, workshops and more, but takes their teachings to a more intimate place than ever before. Through implementing the insights, wisdom, and knowledge shared in The Healing I Took Birth For, I can unequivocally say that I am a better human being because of it.
