Any experience with recapitulation?

[Nik]

Has anyone had any experience(s) with the shamanic practice of recapitulation - the total recall of your life?

If yes, can you share any tips and guidance for getting started and overcoming any difficulties?

Getting started is hard - just attempting to remember every person that had a marked influence on you in a very specific phase of your life (e.g., a trip) is already very difficult!
