John Loxley: From DJing to Coaching, A Journey of Recovery

When you surrender, it's like the war's over, you know, and all of a sudden you get the first glimpse of serenity- and that was what it was like- and slept like a baby, woke up The Next Day and was in the airport.
What happens when a DJ and music producer hits rock bottom after a decade of alcohol and drug abuse? In this episode of 'Broken Open: the podcast', Maureen Towns sits down with John Loxley, also known as Ren Koi, to unravel his incredible journey from addiction to becoming a certified life coach and author. John opens up about his tumultuous past and the pivotal moment in 2010 that led him to start his recovery journey.
He shares how surrendering and having a spiritual experience played crucial roles in his transformation. With a knack for breaking down complex recovery concepts, John offers valuable insights into the dangers of addiction, the barriers many face in recovery, and the controversial role of psychedelic medicines in the healing process. He also touches on how alcohol impacts sleep and overall recovery.
This episode isn't just about John's story; it's a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction or mental health issues. Tune in to hear how John turned his life around and now dedicates himself to helping others do the same through his Life in Recovery movement.
