The John of new channel Shares the teachings of John Davis who remembers a past life where he walked with Jesus. This reincarnation story tells us of our own divinity and it's especially relevant to recovering Catholics.We fine there is a great number of women between 55 and 65 who seem to resonate with the content. Though the content is for all people it does seem to reach those men and women from anywhere from 30 to 80. If you want to live a more joyful fulfilling life, with an understanding of spirituality like you've never had before, this is the channel for you.

Thank you John and good morning! I don't "meditate" but I like to sit quietly by myself in the woods along a stream or river and listen to birds, watch animals. I know God is always with me but there I feel even closer to God in nature. When I was a child in 1946 my parents and I started to go to a place called Cook Forest in PA. I always called that my "happy place". I was born and raised in York PA. I am now 86 and I still love that place and was there last September the week of my birthday. I love nature and prefer to be away from city noise. Have a good day John!😊❤
That's my favorite way to meditate too. My dad and all of us siblings love the woods. ❤️
Yours was the first time I heard "God is at the end of every exhale" and I've incorporated this more and more daily and that for me is meditative. Just knowing where God is I am 💞
Hi John. I love that you sneezed after talking about meditation and others telling you you're doing it wrong! It's an old wives tale that if you sneeze while speaking, you are speaking the truth!❤
Love those “old wives tales”. Funny when we find gems of wisdom there, lol ❤😊
Yes you sneezed the truth. ❤️❤️❤️
Indeed John, the word meditation is so overused!! I am a bit allergic to this that I decided to just sit in silence or listen to beautiful music from Nature Healing Society and you call it sitting in love and I think we do the same! And I love to take a nap and love to sleep. Thank you very much for your point of view! 🙏
Agree 100%, John. I've actually quoted you about "sitting in love". Unfortunately, we tend to complicate everything including meditation. As you've said before... these things are so simple, it's hard for us to comprehend the simplicity. 😌🙏❤️
I think it's different for everyone. My view on spiritual practices is to try different things, take what you like and feel you benefit from, and don't let anyone else tell you what is right for YOU. I've tried the sitting down chanting, breathing , etc. formal meditation, and I think my chattering mind is just too active to want to shut down in that situation. I've done what I call walking meditations for years. Just walking alone and enjoying nature and focusing on the sights and sounds and feel of the wind and the sun, and trying to quiet my mind. One thing I will say I love , and that lends itself very naturally to a peaceful, joyous, and meditative state, is yoga. The kind I do is very basic/beginner, but when I do it I feel both physical health and spiritual wellness improvement immediately. Thank you for your thoughts on the subject.
My quiet time “meditation “ is sitting down and doodling in a note book. I love what you have said, to take a “deep breath “ Then I start drawing. When I am done I am amazed by the end product. Thank you. 💕🦋
so far this is the only you tube channel where i’ve resonated and smiled through each video. I was once in a space where I got lost and confused in all the “tools” to “spirituality”, hearing it now sounds funny. It took me a minute to figure out “just be”, loved when u said “i watch the world around me smile back at me” - so many golden nuggets in all your videos, thank you! ❤
Same.
I love this video on meditation and if it is necessary. Your approach is beautifully simple. Thanks for that!
True prayer is communion within LOVE. Meditation is passive whereas LOVE is proactive.
you should start your own channel
Whatever works for each person. I've experienced an increase in love, mental peace, happiness and better discernment through meditation techniques so I return to those methods. I'm not great at meditation though. I'm a patchy meditator. I get sleepy. It has worked for me at times so I would recommend it to others but whatever works for each person.
Yes breathing takes us there so quickly. Thank you for sharing this! ❤
I love your emphasis on whatever works for the individual ... whatever takes a person to a place of greater clarity, peace, enjoyment, love, feeling good, relaxation, feeling hugged ... that's the essence of a great mediation! Techniques, ceremonies, doctrines or dogmas not required. I'm so appreciative of the simplicity. 😊
Thank you. Love your teaching and suggestions. Thank you for always updating on the weather. It is very comforting to me to hear of coming weather. I believe it is because weather unites us. ❤
Thank you thank you thank you so much for this 🙏❤🤗
I totally agree with you. I find that I get more messages when I’m gardening, cooking or cleaning. I will take time to ground myself and protect myself for the day.
When you realize you never need "protection" it gets clearer.
So why don't we need protection? Can you please do a video on that explaining. Thank you. I'm always looking to learn.
I find that breath work has helped me get to a clear mind. I started with a rigid practice and have broken it down to a simple slow exhale, bathing in the blissfulness of love. This allows me to then be grateful for all thoughts, raising my awareness to the calmness and love at the end of the exhale. I am nothing but breath.
Your words in your videos resonate with me so much. Thank you for your authenticity and for being here for those led to your channel.
Meditation, however you do it, is tuning your frequency/vibration. Sometimes it is needed when we need to realign. Then we need to Sit in Love. ❤
I think it iscactually even simpler than that
Thank you Dearie it is good to hear someone echo some of my own thoughts on meditation, which for me was basically an invitation to take a nap, I've never have been able to completely relax my body, even when asleep, let alone my mind. I don't know what one is supposed to "tap into" or "connect" with and honestly, I really don't care anymore lol I laugh everyday and often. Life is good and I go with the flow and that is far less stressful than trying to do something it seems everyone thinks one has to do to find inner peace. Peace Love and Blessings
Thank you once again John! I’ve tried so many ways and never found the place I was looking for. What works for me - grooming my horse, snuggling with my dog, and just connecting with PachaMama aka EarthMother. Keep it simple, it works best. ❤
Hi John! Your practice is also known as Centering Prayer, that more and more Catholics started practicing. We sit in silence for 20 min and just enjoy being in the presence of God. It is also recommended to do it twice a day. Thanks for what you put out there. 🙏🏼
Thanks for you input. I don't use labels like "Centering Prayer" and won't. Once you start labeling then judgements form
I’m going to use this quote, “Sitting in Love!“ John Davis ❤
Greetings from England 🇬🇧🪷
Thank you for this message, John. I have been beating myself up trying to meditate and seek my higher power, but my mind oftentimes just takes over with too many thoughts that take me away from my intent. Finally, I would just give up and use breathing techniques and emulate love into the ether, and thank the Universe, Source Creator for all of my blessings. Trying to manifest abundance when I already have everything I need is kinda like asking for a glass of water when you already have one in your hand. It's not just about what we want and having positive affirmations, although being positive is key, it is about what we can give of ourselves. To join our collective, with positivity, love and gratitude with anyone else out in the world who may be doing the exact same thing I am, and to try and make the world a better place, trusting God to provide for our essential needs.
When you release "try "you'll get there.
I love these little segments you do. I whole heartedly agree ❤
Be still and know that "I Am" God. Simples! We all need to take time out to reconnect to our source. It brings the balance between human and spirit back. I ache for my "still times" 💜
@@joannaedwards6325 morning Joanna 💜 poetry is my soul 🤗 sending love and light. 😊
@@joannaedwards6325 💜
I'd love to go grocery shopping with you John ..it could be like walking in the park on a spring day, with a few hearty laughs along the way...
Glad l found your channel ...you cut through the s... syrup and get to the pie.
More power to you..
Big love Lynne (uk)
Oooh I can't "meditate" as I have tinnitus and i cannot silence it. 😢 So I just talk to my inner self, which I can do anytime. ❤️🕯🙏
I love your message of simplicity , thanks !
I used to do Eastern style meditations but these days I just do Dr. Joe Dispenza's guided meditations. Not for everyone but it's the least religiously dogmatic despite some of the Hindu influences. Open up awareness of the heart and brain, immersing in feelings of gratitude, love, joy to be alive, and freedom. Staying in the present moment.
Thank you!!❤
Wow!! Love this explanation, I was making it too complicated, Thankyou!!
The sneeze was absolute perfection. ❤
I just sat in love right before I saw this video 😂 so funny how that works lol. During my little session I did experience a ball of white light coming out of my chest and just sitting in front of my face. I have no idea what it was, I just sat there and experienced it until my cat jumped on my chest and meowed VERY loudly 😂😂 I snapped back into reality pretty quickly after that. I highly recommend sitting in love if you need a pick me up 👍🏼
Happy to hear I'm not the only one that feels that way. ❤
It feels so refreshing 😌 releasing dogmas⛓️🔐 and letting my heart guide me ♥️
May we all live a life of quiet joy. 🙏 I like offering a prayer of gratitude and it's like the heavens open and I'm bathed in love. It's a surrender to source.
I like your intent but the word "surrender" makes me uncomfortable.
@@johnofnew surrender as in not trying to control
Love this. Thank you so very much. ❤️❤️❤️
I think the chants are based in the concept of cymatics, or vibration. It can be used for healing and such. If you are drawn to it, look into it. There are some nuances to the tones, so there is somewhat of a right and wrong way to do that.
Thanks for making me feel better about not keeping a rigid meditation schedule, I tend to do things my own, well informed (if possible) way.
Bless you 😊
Absolutely 💯 ❤😊
I respect your belief though completely disagree with it.
I totally agree ! 🥰❤
I do “I am” it’s easy and I started slow , 5 minutes at first , up to a hour - Nissargatta did this to. Jesus meditated he said something like my yoke is kind ( paraphrasing). Yoke = Yoga
He also said something like go into your inner closet . And close the door .
Find one you like - Yogananda taught kriya yoga
Meditation pulls you inside - into your Christ consciousness
Can you show mewhere Jeshua said "my yoke is kind?" I'd like to see the reference to study it.
@@johnofnew ok will do it might have been the word soft - stand by a minute
@@johnofnewMatthew 11:30 it says “easy” I couldn’t remember when I wrote the post
So true
❤❤❤
Thank you!
I meditate on it.
❤️
Bless you! Regarding the sneeze and your loving message .
Thank you. Did you know to say bless you after a sneeze is actually shortened from the original phrase which was "may God bless you and the devil miss you." In the medieval times, they believed that when you sneezed, you opened your soul to the devil and you would be blessed so that the devil wouldn't enter your body.
Simple is best! Watching TV is a form of meditation because you aren’t aware of your toxic thoughts.
love comedies myself
Meditation, like yoga, has become Americanized. ...just breathe baby breathe
Thank you John, I always enjoy your perspective. However without meditation how does one control ones mind? How do you influence your subconscious? How do you shut that voice up inside your head without breath control during meditation? I'm sure there are various and sundry ways to achieve each, but to do all in less 15 minutes? I agree meditation is many things to many people, when I sit to meditate the primary reason is to connect to the divine power of the universe, to be rejuvenated, healed and sometimes chastised by that still small voice.
I encourage you and enjoy your channel.
You are speaking of an addiction to meditation. Simply exhale choose to get present and fearless. That's what Buddha, Krishna, and Jeshua taught.
Thank you
Good video as always ❤️
Great video! I wonder when and how you discovered this loving simple spacesesness within you? Have you always been consciously aware of it, or was there a recognizing "ahaa" moment?
Also ,does the strenght of it vary? For example some days, you almost feel slightly high of it?
Thank you!
Ps. Gotta Love the sneeze❤😅😤

Hi John, I have a question about Jeshua that to this day no one seems to be able to answer it. Is there a reason why Jeshua seems to always be speaking in parables. Especially Mark 4:12. My answer is that I think Jeshua knew that the people back then were not ready to hear the truth or to receive the kind of knowledge he was giving, given how they were so preoccupied with their religion. I could be wrong. Any take on that would be appreciated. Thanks

My meditation is a neutral attunement
John, I always felt that the reason Jeshua or any of the other of our "enlightened masters" were able to reach their level of oneness and enlightenment was due to their time in meditationand fasting away from others. It seems that they all had lengthy bouts of this in time alone. Ive often joked with my wife that Jeshua and Budha didn't have to deal with occupations, bills.and children running around causing chaos. No wonder they have gotten further than everyone else.
Second question. Do you not believe that our goal should be to reach that level of these guys. If we are just living in love without progression then "greater things than he did" we are probably not going be able to do.
I feel 'greater things" are done by knowing the potential of spiritual ego. Yes... spiritual aspects are connected to an egotistical perception of the freedom and power we have in terms of creation 🙏. That is egotistical. Instead , as John mentioned works with him, just stepping back from that ego determined thinking and breath.. no rules on how fast or for how long. It's up to you. Find that calm peace and it'll still your storm. Stay there as long as you want...or until your fur buddy feels like sharing some of that 💕. Just smile and be thankful.
Thanks for letting me say this.
the word ego only means awareness of self. your use of the word is rteepedvin new age definitions
@francesetheridge the word ego only means awareness of self. Your use of the word ego is steeped in New Age definitions of the word. I think it's all far simpler..

I love you brother ❤️
I have disconnected feelings on ego. would like to explain deeper. Blows my mind literally 😁🙏

Check out my video on my trip to the dentist. Just use the search function on the channel and type in "dentist" and you'll find the video.
I mostly been working on meditation myself that mostly there are times I find walking and doing some journaling is also another way of meditation and also even with new age by telling them how to meditate this I mostly been working on meditation myself that mostly there are times I find walking and doing some journaling is also another way of meditation and also even with new age by telling them how to meditate this just bad as Christianity itself.
Hi John, I totally understand this. I’ve always thought the same about meditation. There is no right or wrong way 😊
I hope I can ask a question? It doesn’t relate to this video. I was wondering what your thoughts are on this ‘false light’ that people talk of? I watched a woman on RUclips talking about this, she shared her own experience with it. About beings of love that aren’t quite what they seem. Pretending if you will. Hmm 🤔 I’m not sure about this? Would love to know your thoughts. Lots of love and big warm hugs from Scotland ❤
I've never heard this terminology, but I believe it simply her own belief manifesting.
Thanks for replying 😊
What are your thoughts on reincarnation and the need to end the cycle?
search reincarnation on my channel and you'll find the videos on it.
Meant to add 😂
