Accessing Self Energy: A 6-Minute Reset for Therapists

What if you could access clarity, compassion, and grounded leadership in just a few minutes?

In this short guided meditation, John invites you to pause and take inventory of what you’re carrying — from your professional roles to your personal responsibilities — and reconnect with Self energy. This practice helps you shift from doing to being, from reacting to leading from the heart. Whether you’re between sessions or starting your day, this 6-minute reset is a simple way to return to your center.

3 Key Takeaways:

  1. Discover what you are carrying right now that isn’t even yours

  2. Identify what would change if you led from your heart today

  3. Reveal where your Self Energy comes from

John Clarke: [00:00:00] I would invite you just to start with whatever you're bringing in.

Wherever you're coming from right before this, whoever you were with,

anything that you're carrying into the day,

see if you can just kind of slow down and take inventory.

How am I doing?

Where am I heading?

What's my intention?[00:01:00] 

Notice what it's like to be a person

in many roles,

whether it's that of your professional roles.

As well as personal.[00:02:00] 

What would it look like

if you started leading from your heart a little bit more?

If I was a fly on the wall seeing you do that, what would I notice? What would look different?[00:03:00] 

See if you can get curious for a second

about how and where you access self energy or source.

Does it flow into you from below up from the earth?

[00:04:00] Do you receive it from above?

Is it something you cultivate inside?

See if you can just observe your relationship with that energy.

Witnessing yourself as a spiritual being

witnessing. [00:05:00] Your essence, whatever you perceive that to be.

Or maybe you're doing something entirely different right now and that's okay too.

Just being a person.

Just take another minute on your own here, being with whatever you're with.[00:06:00] 

And any parts that are hesitant to transition from this space, see if you can send those compassion and understanding. Reassurance that you can always access this feeling. Again, anytime you want.
