Stop Trying: The Natural Medium with John Johnson

What if trying is the very thing standing between you and your mediumship?

In this episode of Soul Sync, I’m joined by John Johnson, a medium and teacher originally from Scotland, now living in Sweden, and a former tutor at the Arthur Findlay College. For over a decade John has been building a philosophy he calls The Natural Medium, and it turns so much of what we’re taught on its head.

We talk about:

• the grandmother his dad kept him away from, so he’d never “catch the bug”
• a dream he had at 11 that he’s never forgotten
• Mickey Mouse turning up in the strangest place
• meditating nine times a week for a whole year, before he ever set foot in a church
• the “copy-paste culture” of how mediumship gets taught
• why we don’t meditate, we create the space for meditation to arise
• why “you’re too much in your head” might be the wrong advice
• emotional and factual mediums, and the comfort zones we fall into
• why “you’re only as good as your last demonstration” does more harm than good

John closes with a beautiful thought about a flower that fails to bloom (a quote widely credited to Alexander den Heijer), and what it means if your own development feels stuck.

If you’ve ever tried too hard, this one’s for you.
