BIRTHING LIFE
GLOBAL TESTIMONIALS

"Over the last 6 months, the Birthing Life guidance calls with Baba Jaiya John have been life altering to say the least. In my experience, they are much more than a “call” - they are  ceremonies of remembering what is truly sacred about living within the complex context of our unique personal and collective becomings. As a writer, facilitator, and person of African-Asian diasporic ancestrality, it has been rare to find a spiritual and creative teacher/mentor of such artistic calibre, multi-dimensional awareness, and ancestral vibrancy that Jaiya embodies. After a decade of learning with wise and indigenous healers and elders from around the world, I can put my hand on my heart and say that Jaiya is included as one of those treasured healers and wisdom-keepers. It is an understatement to say that his mentorship, affection-ship, and deep presence is a rare, bright guiding light in these initiatory times we live in. I think that anyone who gets to sit with Jaiya will inevitably be blessed. My deep gratitude to you, always, Jaiya."

“Fellowshipping with Jaiya feels like healing a wound that has long been open with no soothing.  A resonance, frequency, vibration that you know you’ve been needing but have never quite experienced in this way before. A reminder that family, friends, colleagues, community and kindred spirits are never too far away.  I am very grateful for the poetry, the words, the safe space and the holding while navigating this terrain called earth that all of us must travel.”

“You are worth every single penny and so much more. I can’t express how much of a privilege it was to have this opportunity to connect with you one-on-one. It’s something I truly didn’t take for granted. Our call was so nourishing—like a warm hug for my soul. I didn’t know exactly how it would go, but it unfolded so naturally, and that’s a testament to the care and intentional energy you brought to the space. You have such a gift for listening, and the way you offer feedback and share your perspectives is truly invaluable. Spending time with someone as rare and genuine as you is something I’ll always treasure. Thank you for holding space for me, for the laughter, the insights, and the thoughtful conversation. It meant so much more to me than words can express.”

“I share this not to impress your readers; rather, to impress upon them: take action. You deserve this. Your soul deserves this. In Sep 2024, I had the privilege to actively participate in my first Birthing Session with you, Dr. Jaiya John. Your written words have soothed and healed many of my wounds, expanded my mind, unearthed my soul. In reflection, our conversation enabled me to connect with the root cause of my suffering. You gently held space for me to share as a trusted confidant, nurturing mentor, a loving father, a protective brother. You helped me to challenge my limiting beliefs, and validated the deepest yearnings of my soul’s fire. Your reciprocity, transparency, and humbleness allowed me to remove the masks and sit with myself. Our session was a pillar in birthing my newly forming foundation and ignited the path for change, transformation, and expansion. With deepest gratitude, I thank you for sharing your purpose and gifts with me as I continue to savor being the artist of my beautiful life.”

“I wish i could book a session every week. It was truly a beneficial, non therapy therapeutic session. Every moment in our session felt like a soothing embrace, a conversation where words became salve and silence, a sanctuary. It was beyond guidance. It felt like a remembering of the parts of myself I had unknowingly neglected. Dr. Jaiya John, your wisdom didn’t just touch my mind but also my spirit, leaving me with deeper clarity and inner peace more than I already had. It was the kind of connection that holds you long after the conversation fades. My heart is full of gratitude for this life-giving experience. Thank you 🙏🏼🤲🏼🕊️💛💫”

"How can I put into words how it feels to be in conversation with Dr. Jaiya? It is so much more than just a conversation. It is a meeting of souls. He not only hears your question, your stuckness, he feels it and is able to beautifully articulate an opening that allows you to see the way forward. My heart is wide open and I feel filled with possibility and hope.  Dr. Jaiya has a gift for reflecting back to you what you truly are and with that, you can do anything. Thank you so much, Dr. Jaiya."
