The past month has been intense. As increased energy and consciousness floods into the Earth plane, my life and body has felt the effects. As consciousness rises, the lower energies cannot remain, so they come floating to the surface of our awareness to be witnessed, experienced and integrated. These energies can be just ours, or it can also be collective or ancestral energies. For me this past month, it seems as if the basement of my existence is being cleaned. I have felt like my life has been like living inside a washing machine, constant upheavals and churning, with only short pauses of respite between cycles. Becoming consciously connected to my inner wisdom/soul/Higher Self takes cleaning out the ‘s**t’ that hides the light of my inner essence.This is me looking back on my past month and noticing the growth.

The spiritual path inwards is filled with feeling and experiencing unpleasant emotions. The increased frequency and vibration pushes out the heavier energies of old faulty belief systems, patterns and traumas…feeling this heaviness and unpleasantness means these old energies are ready to be seen and surrendered. Not easy but remember the unpleasantness is the old baggage leaving.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

When we are triggered or notice a pattern that is no longer serving us it doesn’t mean we are failing or going backwards. On the contrary, if you are noticing these then they are already in your awareness and if you are aware of them you can change them. Unfortunately, we have to feel this mucky energy as it exits our energy system. We may require professional help for this if it is overwhelming, but often we can transform the energies on our own.But once it is felt and transformed it leaves us feeling lighter and one step closer to the core of our being- our inner wisdom or soul/higher self.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

This week I have been working on honing the skill to stay consciously aware of my inner reactions during communications with others and remaining present while others are being triggered. I have managed not to react to the emotion in others. I am improving…. it can be easy to get knocked off our own centre when others become emotional. It can be easy to get dragged into the drama of others, especially if my issues are being triggered.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

While it is true we have to ‘heal’ ourselves but we do not ‘heal’ in isolation or alone. Often we need the space holding or connection with others to be a catalyst for our own progress inwards towards a higher level of consciousness and knowing our true Selves, our Higher Selves. Source energy connects to us all and thus it can bring different people together to perform a ‘miracle’ or synchronous action.Also as we learn to use various tools and techniques, remember these tools and techniques or even the assistance of others are merely catalysts for us to uncover the inner wisdom and Higher Self that lies within us all. It is there in us all , it is just covered up by all the eons of faulty beliefs, traumas, patterns and tools assist us in our heroic brave journey inwards to transmute the past into more wisdom and higher consciousness.But we require many ways to assist us on our journey inwards towards Buddha or Christ Consciousness.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

I used to have a joke I would say many years ago, ‘Just when you think you’ve got it; you don’t’. This was very true this past week. I feel the same way about the inner journey and becoming aware of and integrating all the energies that block my access to my inner wisdom and Higher Self. Having lots of tools, resources and knowledge of self care are vital. Some energies move easily and swiftly and others can be like a tsunami and feel overwhelming. When the tsunami of emotion and energy wash over me I am learning to be better at self care as a priority and just shifting a spoonful of energy, instead of attempting to integrate it all at once. I do a bit of inner work and then go and resource myself with a walk, some TV or a film or talking to others. I attempt to connect within and ask for my Higher Self to assist me, but at times it is not easy and can feel scary. This is when I become extra self compassionate and allow myself to take all the time I need to process the energies coming up.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

The Body is a Library

The Body is a Library

2025-10-2632:55

All the unacknowledged energies, faulty beliefs, patterns, traumas and unprocessed emotions get stored energetically in the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies, until it is brought to conscious awareness. This is like a library, with every unprocessed unacknowledged energy being like a library book. Once the ‘book’ is examined and read it is no longer stored in the library…or maybe we put it back with a few pages missing…Once we have read and examined every book in our library/body, we are left with….US…who we truly are…our soul and Higher Self…no wonder I have always enjoyed reading….If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

Today I talk about how I use my marathon running days, which were a conscious balance between the spiritual and the achieving aspects of running, to show how the inner path to achieving Christ Consciousness or Buddha consciousness is not always easy. It is important to stay present, take it step by step but also to keep an eye on the direction you are heading. But remember to look back, every now and then, to see how far you have come. Celebrate the journey and the little victories within the journey.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

Learning to listen to your heart and soul can be tricky at first, especially when there are layers of dense energies blocking the communication. These dense energies are the traumas, faulty beliefs, unprocessed energies trapped in our energy bodies. They do not allow free flow of our soul energy. Even with practice these energies can make it difficult to know the next step. But by constantly reassessing how you are feeling and what is being experienced in the outer world, this can guide you to change course when needed. This has been my experience recently. ‘Thinking’ I was listening to my heart and soul, but when the inner and our resistance persisted despite my tuning into it and allowing it. I finally ‘saw’ that an old pattern was still unconsciously taking over. Now I ‘saw’ it, it was no longer unconscious…but I am surrendering my control and allowing my soul, Higher Self and Source energy to lead me in the optimal direction for me. My pattern is a bit uneasy about this, but I am allowing that part to speak and be heard and felt. Then I decide to surrender some more…let’s see where this new mysterious path leads me….it must be the right way, as I have no idea where I am going and there is not a path already forged ahead of me.www.johadley.comIf you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

I thought my long dark night/year of the soul had passed, but in many ways it is continuing. I may have landed in a new city but locating a permanent place to live has been challenging. Also I assumed, my next step was actually my next step and I am realising this was merely a mind/ego idea. The universe has kept me walking into brickwalls to make me realise this was not part of my commitment to living from my heart and soul and trusting the universe. I realised I was still attempting to control by doing something that I ‘thought’ was the next step…..I have taken two weeks to allow myself to let go of my attachment to this ‘missed step’ and recommit to allowing life to unfold without me controlling anything…I only need to respond to what unfolds. But is still a weird place to be, swimming and living in the unknown. Not knowing what the universe has in store next…..If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

For me life is a journey within ourselves and to the core of our lives to discover our inner wisdom and Source energy.

I believe all of humanity is progressing towards a higher consciousness level. As we see and integrate the energies that block our access to our heart, soul and inner wisdom we step ever closer. sometimes the progress requires mistakes or new ways of perceiving situations.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

Making quantum leaps

Making quantum leaps

I am passionate about understanding the energy of consciousness. If we are fully conscious we are ‘whole’ and have integrated all our faulty beliefs, unprocessed emotions and traumas and this can be an unpleasant process to reach our true Selves. It is like we have this Golden version of ourselves within but we cannot see it for all the ‘mud’ and ‘filters’ that these energies of traumas etc create. As we allow these patterns and traumas and beliefs to be seen and experienced we discover what lies beneath and within. This then allows our true Self or soul to run the show instead of our traumas and patterns.This past month I felt I have made a quantum jump to the next higher level and from this new level I am sensing in my heart and getting images in my mind’s eye about where I may be heading and it is not where my mind centred ego self thought. Our mind is at a much lower level of consciousness than the heart. Creating from the ego mind and its patterns is usually fraught with issues of duality. Creating from the heart benefits the whole. The whole collective of humanity. I am receiving snap shots of my future creation. The direction in which I am unfolding.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.com.

My Substack posts and podcasts are about how I believe humanity is collectively evolving towards higher consciousness and awareness that is integrating our triggers and traumas and faulty beliefs. Just as I was about to record my podcast last week, I discovered by business website had been deleted. Here is how I put into practice my beliefs and consciousness practices.

Often circumstances have recurring patterns within them. This often indicates where we have an energetic block that is masking our inner wisdom and soul. Learning to accept these blocks, to see and feel them can assist in their integration. This allows us to become closer to our True Essence/Self.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.online.

Somatic means body. To use the titles of two popular books on the subject to make my point: as the body keeps the score and when the body says ‘no’, we usually aren’t in balance and if the ‘no’ is ignored long enough, we usually wind up with a health issue of some sort. What happened to us, or the result of what didn’t happen to us, can be held in an energetic form trapped in our cellular structures within our body and the energy fields associated with the body. We are a little bit physical, but we are much more a series of interacting energy fields. Addressing the unresolved energy trapped in our body’s fields allows us to access closer and closer the True Essence or Higher Self or Inner Wisdom that we all are at our core. So learning to listen to our body, especially our heart can greatly improve our health as we are closer to our inner wisdom and True Essence.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.online.

Attaining access to our true Self, our soul and accessing the infinite energy from the universe/Source energy/Zero-point field - whatever name you choose to call the same energy; is more a ‘cleaning’ process where we open to see what covers this true Self that lies beneath. To become aware of these energies blocking our inner wisdom and light, we require presence. The ability to be in the NOW, the moment. Presence is the ability to be here NOW, not in the past or future, and feeling or experiencing everything that is arising. Even if it is not pleasant. Learning to be present is the greatest gift we can ourself, others and our world.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.online.

Last week I was experiencing low mood and feeling hopeless and lost. All these unpleasant sensations and emotions were strong. A few days later, I am living the exact same life circumstances but now I am feeling lighter and more optimistic. I experienced signs from my angels and guides and other synchronicities that remind me I just integrated a ton of energy. This is the process to integrating all the unprocessed energies that block the light of the soul.

“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” ― Mahatma GandhiI have always noticed the paradoxes of life. One of these is: we all have to heal ourselves, but we cannot do this alone. We often need to heal in relation to another human. But there is a caveat: They need to be at our level of consciousness or higher to be of service to us. Otherwise they can increase our inner discomfort because they cannot understand us or see from our perspective.Being alone and learning to go within ourselves to tune in to our Self and what our inner wisdom is guiding us to, is also important.Learning and then balancing when we need the silence of aloneness or when we require the reflection of ourSelves from another human being who ‘gets’ is a skill we need to develop. Oneness is a blend of both. Both sides of the same coin, if we think 2 dimensionally.:)Be kind to yourself as you learn this ability to know which side of the coin you need.If you resonate with my work and you need compassionate witness or a Somatic Counsellor to sit with you in presence, book in a Free 30 minute Discovery Call (anywhere in the world excluding USA- sorry, it is a business insurance issue.) at www.johadley.online.

One year ago I asked the universe to show me how to completely live according to my soul and connected to Source Energy. Be careful what you ask for as my whole life was basically put into the great washing machine of life. Most of what was familiar has been removed from my life. Change is scary. Changing one area in a life is hard but when everything in life changes at once it really requires a lot of self care as the stress levels definitely rise. I decided it was a test to see how serious I was. I went inwards and implemented all the tools I have learned and taught others. I also had to listen to my own advice. One year ago I doubted Source Energy…there are still moments now where I doubt, as I am still a work in progress. But I have more faith. I have seen how I was assisted in my darkest moments.www.johadley.online This is a public episode.
