It was in the summer on a beautiful Croatian island where I was coorganizing a seminar on urban shamanism in Harmony Center. John was one of the seminar leaders – a charming British gentleman, always smiling and making people laugh with his jokes. Once he pulled a poodle shaped balloon from behind his back and gave it to me when I ran into him in the reception.
My mind went wild as I was looking for ways to get myself out of this one elegantly.
He was observing me for some time running around with my head full of thoughts and things to do. Then he invited me for a cup of tea after lunch. I loved to talk to him – he was giving me great wisdom teachings lightly, as if pulling them out of his sleeve. He shared his insights as water which takes the shape of its container – softly and unobtrusively. Nonetheless it was clear to me that he was telling me things about myself which were so accurate that the ego didn’t want to hear them – it wanted to rebel and deny.

He pointed out a few of my patterns – many times per day he reminded me of my mind taking me away in a split second to such measure that I was absent to everything around me and nearly exhausted. »Welcome back!« he would laugh at me every time he caught me in a labyrinth of my (mostly unconstructive) thoughts.
One evening we were contemplating again – I was telling him about shamanism. As I was about to leave he said: »As you have given me these insights I would love to give you something in return. I would like to do a short eye to eye meditation with you because I want you to trust yourself in the deeper level.« Oh my, what could be worse? Meditation and I? And on top of that a meditation with eye contact?! My mind went wild as I was looking for ways to get myself out of this one elegantly. He knew exactly what was going on inside of me. My thoughts went: »Is he serious? He wants me to meditate? How did you get yourself into this one, stupid girl! I need an excuse quickly! Come on, be mature about it, it is just a meditation. Oh nooo!«
In the end I stayed and meditated with him. It was a beautiful experience. Our friendship has given me such precious insights about myself that many times I was thinking alone about all that was coming my way and all that he was teaching me by putting a mirror in front of me to become aware of things about myself that I hadn’t been aware of before. I knew I was being given a blessing and I was grateful for it.
Since then I have observed John with people many times. He has an incredible gift of reaching out to people, of getting them to listen and to change.
John is an actor, a singer, a comedian, life skills coach, yoga instructor and spiritual seminars leader with decades of experience. He performs intuitive life readings using cards as a means of communicating to people what they need to know in their current situation using his amazing intuition in doing so.
His strongest asset and gift is his intuition. His receptiveness and subtleness allow him to perceive and feel people knowing how to talk to them and touch their hearts.
I am glad to announce he is coming to Slovenija. He says: »We have lost ancient teachings of wisdom of our ancestors in our culture. We have lost ancient mystery schools knowledge of ourselves, life and nature. It is necessary for mankind and our planet to return to this knowledge.«
John has dedicated his life to working with some of the Earth’s finest spiritual teachers such as Japanese buddhist master Tamosan, Paul Solomon and Sir George Trevelyan. »It is of utmost importance that people are exposed to right knowledge again. If they had access to right knowledge, we wouldn’t have a planet of so massively unhappy people.«
I kindly invite you to come and meet him. You will not regret it!
