Why an Akashic Records reading?

What drew me to an Akashic Records reading was a longing about life’s fundamental questions, and a feeling of being stuck. Especially when I kept falling into the same patterns in relationships, the same struggles at work, or an anxiety I couldn’t explain, ordinary rational analysis sometimes couldn’t find a way out. The Akashic Records are seen as the universe’s “library of souls”, holding every soul’s path through past, present and future.

I chose it hoping to step beyond surface logic and look, from the soul’s higher view, for what lies beneath the pain. It was never about fortune-telling or predicting the future. It was about finding the shared wisdom on “Who am I?” and “What is my life lesson this time?”, and about longing for deep healing and guidance through a connection with my higher self.

What did the reading feel like?

The reading is usually an overwhelming experience of being surrounded by sacred love and unconditional acceptance (for me, the tears kept flowing; the feelings were intense). Entering the Records, I felt a calm, warmth and safety beyond words, as if a heart that had drifted for a long time had finally come home.

As Jannie passed on the messages, there was no judgement, blame, or right and wrong in the Records, only complete understanding and compassion. Sometimes, as a deep memory or a blind spot of the soul is brought to light, the body lets go too: goosebumps, warmth in the chest, tears. The feeling of being completely seen and deeply understood lets you lower your guard, and feel a clarity deep inside and a resonance with your soul.

How has it helped or changed your life?

The biggest change the reading brought me was taking back the lead in my own life and regaining my inner strength. The guidance of the Akashic Records helped me break old limiting beliefs and see the causes behind where I was stuck, which changed how I look at pain. In daily life, that becomes clearer decisions, more harmonious relationships, and trust in the future.

Since the reading, I no longer repeat the same mistakes. I can meet challenges with awareness, and I have even opened up potential and gifts I had held back for years. This change isn’t fate being magically rewritten from outside. It is an inner awakening that lets me, day by day, make new choices that better serve my soul.

Why an Akashic Records reading?

I believe every life we live follows a script that has already been written. When I first heard about Akashic readings I was very interested, and I wanted to know whether the record of all our lifetimes really exists somewhere. I also had ways of thinking I knew I should change but found very hard to change, and I wanted to know why, and whether I could.

What did the reading feel like?

I went from half-believing at first to confirming, again and again, the past experiences that shaped how I think now. Jannie helped me make peace with my past self. A lot of sadness kept coming out, more like a release than anything else.

How has it helped or changed your life?

I feel much lighter. The situations where I used to get stuck, and the habits I wanted to change, have clearly changed. For example, I used to be afraid to say no to people, but now I can. I used to be a pushover, but now I have my own limits. I used to lack confidence, but now I’m much better.

Why an Akashic Records reading?

I had a reading with Jannie before, and it felt truly amazing! I had wanted to ask about my love life, but the reading turned out to be about the family I grew up in. What surprised me most was that I never mentioned my family at all, yet Jannie described things I had really lived through. It felt unbelievable in the moment, and it left a very deep impression on me.

I believe every person and every event we meet in life has something to teach us. Through this reading I hoped to know my true inner self better, to learn understanding and acceptance, and to make the life ahead freer, with a clearer direction.

What did the reading feel like?

The reading felt truly wondrous, like slowly walking into my own heart and getting to know myself again. Some things were long in the past and I rarely thought about them, but Jannie’s reading made me look back at those experiences and how they had affected me. There was surprise, there were moments that moved me, and there was much to reflect on. Some of my feelings and thoughts, it turned out, were things I had never really understood.

How has it helped or changed your life?

After the reading I felt more confident in myself, and it made me think back over my past again. Slowly I came to understand that everyone grows up differently, so naturally we think, feel and express ourselves differently. Often it isn’t about who is right or wrong; we are simply seeing things from different places.

Whether with the family I grew up in, in my marriage, with my children, or with people at work, I hope to bring a little more understanding and acceptance and a little less arguing, to learn to see from the other person’s side, and to take better care of my own feelings. For me, a reading isn’t about changing my life overnight. It made me more willing to face myself and understand myself, and to learn to live with a calmer heart.

Why study the Akashic Records?

With a science and engineering background, I leaned on logic and never imagined I’d come near the Akashic Records. But I kept hearing about them on the YouTube channel Mr & Mrs Gao, and out of curiosity I looked for a teacher with in-person classes and hands-on practice, and found Jannie.

What did you gain in class?

From Foundation to Advanced, I’ve studied with Jannie for nearly three years. I gained more than reading skills: I learned to understand spirituality in a practical way, and with her guidance, company and answers to my questions, I broke through where I had been stuck.

How has it helped in your life since?

I know and understand myself better. Through the Akashic Records I make peace with and untangle my emotions and the knots between me and others; my mind has grown calmer, and my relationships have quietly changed. It isn’t a superpower. It is finding balance again, and making peace with everything.

Why study the Akashic Records?

At first it was curiosity. I had also had my Records opened for me, and felt understood, accepted, even comforted, so I wanted to go deeper and learn to do it myself.

What did you gain in class?

Honestly, at first I wasn’t sure whether I was really in the Records, but Jannie guided us patiently, and practising in pairs with classmates I noticed how different it felt from my everyday state. As I understand it, it simply reflects what you feel and draws out your most intuitive bodily sense. It was a really good experience.

How has it helped in your life since?

My daily work relies heavily on data and numbers, so it’s good to have a completely non-quantitative tool for really listening to my own inner view, and for noticing my reactions and low moods more deeply, as if from the outside. I’d recommend it to anyone who has questions to ask but doesn’t want to tell their secrets to a stranger.

Why study the Akashic Records?

At first it was curiosity: can the Akashic Records really be learned? The other part was that I had many questions about life. What I could learn from books no longer satisfied me, and I didn’t know what else could help me get to know myself.

What did you gain in class?

The messages I received, and the moments when I could feel what others felt, shook me in all kinds of ways and opened my eyes: so this is what receiving a message is like. I’ve read people, objects, animals, plants, buildings… it’s fascinating, and it has loosened my rigid certainty that I know best.

Once, I read in the Records where my nameless fears came from. After seeing them again and again and trying to make peace with them, those fears became transparent, and life became much easier.

How has it helped in your life since?

Since the course, I’ve been working through major “fears” in my life, from seeing scattered fragments of information to the way life kept arranging for me to see and be redeemed. Having faced my fears, I can live and experience life more steadily.

I don’t know about others, but I really need to see myself. Because I can now see and make peace, every day feels lighter.

Why study the Akashic Records?

I first came to the Akashic Records out of simple curiosity: what are they, really? Could someone like me, with no experience, learn to read them? Jannie said everyone can learn, whether or not you’re what people call a “muggle”. That took away some of my hesitation and gave me the courage to try. So, curious and hopeful, I signed up for the Akashic Records reading course, giving myself the chance to explore and get to know them first-hand.

What did you gain in class?

My biggest gain from the course is that the places where my feelings used to get stuck are now easier to move through. Some feelings I used to circle around and couldn’t let go of, I can now slowly see from another angle, and I have more room to understand myself.

For me, this change is very much part of everyday life. When an emotion comes up again, I have more space to face it, to sort through what I feel and find a way forward, so the places in my heart I couldn’t get past are gradually starting to loosen.

How has it helped in your life since?

Since the course, I’ve gradually been able to see things in daily life from more angles, and to empathise more with how others feel and what they are going through. Facing the differences between people, I understand more, and my heart is less tangled.

That understanding has slowly come back to me, too. I blame myself less over and over, and I’m less trapped in old emotions; I’ve begun to accept that my past self was struggling too. For me, what this learning gave me was less inner struggle, and the chance to make peace with my past self, slowly, at my own pace.

Why study the Akashic Records?

I first came to the Akashic Records after hearing, in A-Yi-Sha’s channelled messages, that learning to make peace with yourself is also a way to help the Earth’s ascension.

What did you gain in class?

I walked into class curious and a little uncertain. What delighted me most was the wondrous feeling, when we practised with each other, of my inner self being truly seen. As I learned, I came to understand that some beliefs imprinted deep in my heart may each have their origins, and the Records gave me the chance to understand them anew and make peace with them.

How has it helped in your life since?

I’m grateful for my teacher’s gentle, respectful guidance, which let me explore without fear. Old confusions have gradually taken on new meanings. It turns out that when we are willing to get to know ourselves anew, and allow ourselves to be as we are, a new journey in life has already quietly begun.

Why study the Akashic Records?

I’ve always loved learning. I heard there was a technique that helps you understand yourself better, one you can get more skilled at through practice, and that makes you stronger inside. Most importantly, I had already experienced with Jannie how compelling and accurate the Akashic Records can be, and the whole session felt comfortable, which made me even more curious.

What did you gain in class?

Everyone has the ability to sense and notice; we just often don’t notice it in ourselves. Practising with classmates, I found that reading isn’t hard, and telling things apart isn’t hard either. What’s hard is overthinking and expecting too much.

In class Jannie guides students step by step, so we learn why awareness matters, practising and telling things apart again and again until it sticks.

How has it helped in your life since?

I’m less prone to excessive anxiety and inner struggle. At times when I don’t know how to face someone or something, a lot of that vague anxiety is gone. My thinking has also become clearer and more orderly.

Why study the Akashic Records?

I’m someone whose thoughts and ideas keep popping up (especially this past year). I noticed this over the last two years, and I’m not someone who keeps talking things out with others; a lot of it is flights of fancy that are hard to say out loud. So I felt I needed a tool to help, or my CPU was going to explode. I looked at all kinds of metaphysics and Chinese astrology, and even considered learning Human Design, but somehow none of it felt like what I really needed.

Then I came across the Akashic Records. After experiencing them myself, I truly felt that exploring and healing from within is the real way to solve problems. In the Records I felt warmth, positivity and support, something I’d never experienced before, and right then I knew this was what I needed.

What did you gain in class?

Finally about to discover the secrets of the Akashic Records (kidding) 🤣 Opening my own Records for the first time was a wondrous experience. Opening them isn’t a hard step, but once inside you can sense that something is different, which is hard to put into words. Practising on my own and with classmates, I found things that were in sync with me, and things I’d never noticed about myself.

Also, I didn’t know my classmates well, but along the way it struck me that the depth of connection the Akashic Records create between people is on a completely different level from ordinary socialising. Through the Records we might experience or discover things the other person has never noticed. I found that very, very interesting.

How has it helped in your life since?

It hugely satisfied my Gemini-moon curiosity. Right after the course I read our dog’s Records; I was so curious what it was thinking. Animals’ Records are so simple and sweet, and you can completely feel how different they are from people’s.

For myself: when a problem comes up, I no longer spend as much time going round in circles as I used to. I can use the Akashic Records as a decision-making tool, which shortens the process enormously. Very efficient! No more suffering for ages 😂

With friends, what moves me most is reading for people I don’t know well. Because we’re not close, I don’t have to worry about preconceptions or spend too long sorting through the messages. When I pass on what the Records say just as it is, they ask, “How could you know that?”, or tell me right there that they feel deeply touched or supported, and I’m truly happy for them.

Why study the Akashic Records?

I wanted to change my habit of indecision, and stop handing my choices to others out of fear, worry or concern about what they think. I want to learn to trust myself and bravely take responsibility for my own choices.

What did you gain in class?

I used to criticise myself a lot, feeling I was terrible and not capable enough, and always regretting past choices, so I couldn’t see my own strengths. But through the Akashic Records I began to see myself anew, and slowly understood: “I’m actually good too.”

It’s okay if I’m not capable enough yet: if I can’t do something, I learn; if I don’t understand, I ask. Even when criticism or blame hurts, I can slowly hold my own feelings, steady myself, and keep going.

How has it helped in your life since?

I’m practising letting myself feel nervous and flustered when I don’t know what to do. Even if it’s uncomfortable, it doesn’t mean I can’t keep going. I hope I can carry my unease and still find the courage to do what I need or want to do, instead of standing still, imagining over and over things that haven’t happened yet. Rather than waiting until I’m completely ready, I’d rather try taking the first step and grow little by little as I go.

Why study the Akashic Records?

I first came across the Akashic Records in a video by Mr Gao of the channel Mr & Mrs Gao, and found it amazing; it made me very curious. I’d always wanted to know what the Akashic Records really are and how they can help us. When the chance came to take this course, I decided to learn first-hand, hoping to understand more deeply and explore more unknown possibilities.

What did you gain in class?

Once in class, I found that the Akashic Records aren’t just the mystery I’d imagined; they are a tool that helps you explore your inner self. Through Jannie’s guidance and hands-on practice with classmates, I slowly learned to quiet down and feel myself, and began to see things in life from different angles. My biggest gain was knowing myself better, and finding that many problems can find a new direction through a different approach.

How has it helped in your life since?

Since learning the Akashic Records, the biggest change is how I see things. When a problem comes up, I don’t stop at the surface; I try to understand the reasons behind it. Besides helping me sort out my own thoughts, when friends are struggling or lost I can use what I learned in class to help them clarify things and offer different ideas and suggestions, so this learning really becomes part of life.

Why study the Akashic Records?

By chance I had a reading, and only then learned that some of my gifts had been hidden. At first I simply wanted to dig out those hidden gifts and put them to good use; after all, wouldn’t it be a waste to have gifts and never use them in a lifetime? Then, as the gifts slowly opened, my emotions and feelings came back too. To understand my own emotions better, to feel less numb in living, and to experience what real happiness is, I decided to learn the Akashic Records.

What did you gain in class?

In class you really get to know the Akashic Records and learn to use them. They have many extra uses, and one is working with my hidden gifts; that is how I opened my own gifts through the Akashic Records. When reading the Records, sensing energy is the key, and emotions are one of the energies you sense. You can even talk with your pets through the Akashic Records, a bit like being an animal communicator. It’s great fun.

How has it helped in your life since?

I think the biggest gain is being able to open the Akashic Records myself to solve my own or other people’s problems, with no limits on the question. It’s a really free way of dealing with problems, and very fast: almost anytime, anywhere. Very convenient.

The passive skill is useful too: working through my own emotions. Before I knew the Akashic Records, a bad mood would sometimes affect everything I did, even my sleep, and I could only wait for time to wash it away… The thing is, you never know how long it will take to feel better. Being able to work through emotions is really great.
