John Siddique is a writer and sacred teacher who helps people live from their own clear centre in the middle of ordinary life. His work is for those who’ve had enough of spiritual performance and self-improvement, and who want a simple, honest way to be present, sane, and kind with themselves on their journey of self-knowing and illumination. His meditations and teachings have been downloaded more than 3.8 million times here on Insight Timer, and his book Signposts of the Spiritual Journey offers down-to-earth guidance to help you meet and illuminate the real challenges of modern life with awareness and love. His work has appeared in Time, Women & Home, The Guardian, the BBC and elsewhere, but what matters most to him is that you feel more actual yourself, and not not more “perfect.”

really appreciated the simplicity and presence in this session. The poem and breathwork reminded me that healing doesn't have to be complicated-just one breath at a time. It felt grounded, authentic, and deeply human. Thank you for creating space for that.

I’m one who listens to this often, and I share it as often as possible. The poem itself is truly beautiful, but the way you recite this poem brings a beauty and life to it. I’m describing this poorly but mean it sincerely 🤟💕

I absolutely love this track!!!! My only complaints are that, I listen on loop and the start of the track is wayyyyy louder than the beginning, so it's jarring, and the intro is a bit long. Aside from that, it's perfect Thank you!!
