I have a very special guest with mehere today, Krista Powell, on theMovement, Mind and Meaning podcast. I'mexcited to welcome her on here in amoment. Hello. HelloGreat to haveyou. Thank you so much. I'm so excited tobe here. Yay. Awesome. Awesome.Awesome. All right, so before we jump in,I will let you know that this episode isbeing sponsored by the brand new minibook to Stop Anxious Overthinking. Sothat will be linked up in the show notesas well. Totally free for you to grabthat. And as well, I know Krista has agift for us too, and she will share moreabout that at the end of our episodeconversation together today. But makesure to grab both of those becausethey're both full of so much goodness.And Speaking of goodness. Krista isa pleasure strategist and we would loveto know more about you. People can readyour bio and all the things they get,cause I know you love learning. Everytime I text you, you're like I'm doing athing on the weekend. And I'm like, Ilove how much you love learning. So yay,gold star. But take us to a momentin your life where you had one ofthose. Oh man, I got it. Thisis whoa, what's happening?Or it can beone of those. Yay, this is amazing. Andit's. A moment that has led you todoing what you donow and sharing your gifts the way you'resharing them. Yes. And there's somany places that I could start thisstory, but let's just do it at at I'mgoing to start in college. I'm going tostart in college when I startedto have boy problems, right?You're You're in, you're on your own.Things don't go quite as smoothly as youthink. And suddenly I found I had thissuperpower. I had this voice in my headthat would create a story and lead medown the worst case scenario. And Ithought, oh, like, I'm ready for anythingnow. If I prepare for the worst, then Iwill like, I'll be in great shape. Butwhat I didn't know was that this voice inmy head would live with me for many,many, many years. And what I thought wasmy best friend was actually somethingthat was holding me back. And once Ilearned that I could shut that voice off,that I could change the script, then Ifound that I could connect to the peopleI love so much more. And that's when Iwanted to start teaching other women.to get out of their head, get into theirbody, to turn off that critic,and to start rewriting the script oftheir lives. Yes.Oh, my goodness. So put both handsup if you can relate.Oh, hey. Forthose of you exclusively audio right now,we're both laughing and waving our handsin the air, or which I was.Yes. So yeah,interesting, right?How many of us canrelate to this, the chatter of thecollective in our head. And you know, oneof the things that you said that reallystruck me that I super align with cause Ialways talk about the characters in ourhead and how it's like a play and we getto watch these characters and you knowwhat the main ones are and that like yousaid that that relentless criticaloverthinking, oh, make me feel like shitsort of thing that so many of us justthink is is us. Right. Andit's such an interesting phenomenon. Andthat's where, you know, practices thatyou share and practices like yoga, forexample, help us to realize that we arenot our thoughts. But many people justlive their whole life. And I did for along time. And it sounds like you didtoo, just like listening to this barrageof chatter in our head. That's just.Greasing the slippery slope of sadnessand anxiety and stress and all the thingsthat we are really specifically focusingon here on this show. And so I love thatyou're going to be sharing some moreexperiences and mind and body tools, andyou're going to take us through a reallypowerful clearing practice that you sneakpeeked with me earlier. And I was like,Oh my God, I love this. So let's talkabout that, about howthis voice. Isn'ttruly our own?Or where does it come from?Or how can we begin to just payattention to it and not get caught up byit?Like, let's start there. Talk to usabout that, please. Yes. Well, I willsay, like you said, I lived with it for avery long time, thinking that this isjust what everybody heard inside of themthat. We all that this is just me. Ididn't realize it was a separate entity.I I thought it was just me. Andthen I learned that, of course, ourunconscious mind goesinto OverDrive and it's always trying tokeep us safe. It's always trying to keepus alive. And sometimes it takesshortcuts. And those shortcuts includemaking tremendous assumptions about theinformation that it's receiving. Andsometimes there's some faultyconnections. And and that's where thebeauty lies. Once we pay attention tothat voice in our head, we can make achoice and we can make a choice of do wewant to keep going with the same dialogueor do we act as a director and we say cutthat like we're changing the script,we're going to go in a differentdirection. What I realized was thatsomewhere over the years, it was probably20 years after college, I waslying in bed one morning. Husband wasbeside me. Kids were asleep in the otherroom. The dog was on the floor. I wasliterally surrounded by people who lovedme, and I couldn't figure out whyI felt so alone. I justfelt like noone really saw me, no one really knew me,and I was just really curious as to whatwas going on. And that's when I realizedthat this voice in my head. Had not onlybeen talking to me, but had been helpingme create boundaries and walls around meto keep me closed off from the peoplethat I love, right?It was like, well,this part of you, it may not be thatattractive. It may not be your mostlovable part. So let's just close it offso that nobody can see it. Andwhen you start to build these littleinvisible walls around you, thepeople around you realize that they cansense there's something. That is stoppingthem from truly connecting with yourheart, with your soul. And so there'sthis gap of communication. There's thisgap of connection.And that's where the magic happens. Whenwe can start to break down those walls,when we can start to be vulnerable, wecan start to open up and shareour true selves with the people we love.Everything shifts.Umm Yeah, beautiful. And so.What I'm hearing you say is that thatthat first step is becomingaware of that voice, right?And andrecognizing that if we can hear that andwe can listen to it, then we aren'tthat right. And like you said, we can bethe director and say cut, we're going adifferent way. And so that'sso powerful to be able tohave that level of awareness first andforemost, but that level of.agency and recognizing that weget to bring all those parts back,right?And like you said, we we tend towall those parts off. And especially, Ithink it's worth mentioning, is that forso many people, there is oftentimes whenit comes to these challenges thatanxiety and depression can present,there's a lot of widespread societalshame and stigma around them that weinternalize, right?And so we really wallthose parts of ourself off. And thenthat'sThat really adds fuel to thefire as far as how lonely wefeel. And so was that part of yourexperience as well?Absolutely. Ithink that shame was a big partof why the walls were built. I mean,we're told so many messages in societyabout how we should look, like where weshould be in our life. Are we progressingas we think?And then if we don't thinkwe're keeping up with what is expected ofus, that is a tremendous opportunityfor. For a wall to come up, for shame tocome up, for those stories to come in ourhead, whether whether they'rewhispers or whether they're incrediblyloud voices, they impact us.Yeah, yeahAnd I laughed. I was muted, butI laughed because I'm like, whispers. Areyou whispers?Because mine are like,sometimes they're whispers.Sometimes they're like catty littleasides that you, you know, from like, I'mthinking of like Steel Magnolias whensome of the ladies with the older ladieswere gossiping and like, sometimes that'swhat my voice sounds like. It's just asweet little whisper. But yes, othertimes they're like megaphones, likeeverybody can see that you're not doingright. Yeah, right. Yeah. Thesnarky ones tend to be like a little bitundertone and a little bit, you know, notthe obnoxious ones, at least in my brainare like. The Angry SeagullCollective and just, you know, butyou hit on something there is that it'sin our head, right?And and yes, ofcourse there's there's a somaticcomponent to every felt sense andexperience and feeling and andemotions that we have. But when we'retalking about the inner critic and thatinner dialogue, that really. You know,it's just chattering away like a littlemonkey up there, you knowAnd so howcan we begin to like westarted with shift the story and changeour life. Like we one of the things aboutmodern life is that it is verycerebral, right. It's very like we got todo, we got to do, you know and and thatthat pressure again external, internaland really. Can weigh a lot on usand demands a lot on us. So I know thatthis is something that you really speakto a lot and and we can go therenow as to like what do you think theeffects of this modern reality that weall live in like as far as being incontact with these parts and learningabout ourselves like do you think it setsus up for success or no.Well, if we pay attention to it, it's it,it gives us a tremendous edge because.Most of us in Western society are gearedto be action people. We're doing all thetime. We have huge to do lists. We arealways like reaching for something more.And when we can partner thatwith what you said, that somatic sense,that sense of of taking the pausesthrough the day of when we notice thatchatter in our head to hit the pausebutton and and redirect our attention toour body and be like, OK, I know what thedialogue is in my head. Where am Ifeeling that in my body?And what do Iwant to do with this information?How do Ineed to express it?How do I need toacknowledge it?How do I need to validateit so that I can move on?Becausewe're not about, like, suppressing thesethoughts that come up. We want to honorthem. We just want to make a decision ofwhether we're going to, like, carry themwith us or whether we're going to saythank you for this message and goodbye.Yes, I love that. And and that's one ofthe adages in the power pause movement isto feel the feels and take power pause,right. And so it's, I love that you saidthat because there's so much, especiallyin the spiritual realm of high vibe allthe time. Here we go, you know, and it'slike the toxic positivity and justbrushing that over. And and that again, Ifeel like it lends to moreof an isolation of these parts that aresimply just asking for recognition andreintegration. Would you agree?Yes,absolutely. I think that if we ignoresomething, it it probably is going tocome back, right. It's going to keepcoming back. And so we're not. And thenyou feel like, well, what is wrong withme that I can't move past this becauseyou just you're you're stuck on amerry-go-round. And it's when wehonor, it's when we share, whether thatis just in your journal or on a voicenote or with a friend or or apartner and you give voice to it.That it starts to dissipate and it startsto lose its hold over you.Yeah, absolutely. It gives us thatspaciousness, right?It gives us theopportunity to take a step back and giveperspective. And and yeah, again,you know, the merry-go-round is such abeautiful analogy. And I was using asimilar one the other day of. I think itwas, I think it was the teacups, but liketeacups stuck on Mach speed thousand,you know, remember the teacup ride atWalt Disney World or whatever. And you'relike spinning in your little teacup andthen you're going around on the thing.And so that to me is what it feels likewhen we're caught up by these, this voiceand this inner critic cause we'respiraling on one thing, but then we'rejust in generally spiraling on a, youknow, whole load of subjects. And so Ilove that it's it's such a beautifulreminder and and areturn to that compassion andreturn to love and return to thatrecognition that you are sopowerful and you can begin torewrite these stories. And it really doesstart with that recognition and thisawareness of the thoughts and awarenessof the feelings and and not treating themas a problem per se, butas part of the experience, right?And partof this humanity. And I think that's ahuge part of this work that you're doingas a pleasure strategist of helpingpeople to come back into their body. Butalso a huge part of the work of this showand bringing people like yourself on isto understand that this is commonhumanity here we're talking about, right?Like we're all on the spinny ride, youknow, and we're each in our own teacup.Yes.Yeah. And So what do you find that, youknow, really is something that you see alot in your work with your clients as faras classical patterns thatkind of, and I mean, I know we're alldifferent, but as far as when they cometo you, like what are they really in thatspace of help me, please, I'm reallyfrustrated with this. Like what are theysaying to you that is that that coreneed, core challenge?Yeah, Ithink that a lot of women, I I workpredominantly with women who who comeinto my space are arejust grasping to be seen, to be loved, tobe like fully,fully held for who they are. And theydon't realize that the reason they're notfully held for who they are is becausethey have been walled off parts ofthemselves that they're a little bitworried about. How they are perceived orhow they look. And so once we startto open ourselves up toreceiving pleasure, that is assigned toour body to get off of thisroller coaster in our head, get off themerry-go-round, slow down and be open toreceiving a new influxof of information, of data, ofsensory feelings in our environment.I love that. I love that. And that to meis, you know, that's it, right?And whatyou're speaking to is is veryobvious in like an energetic shift. Andinternally what we're doing there iswe're shifting the state of our nervoussystem, right?And out of a very reactivefight or flight or freeze or fawn.Into that more grounded and centered,stay and play, rest and digest, tend andbefriend that we is like where we'rethriving, where we're resilient. We'reactually in that place of joy andappreciation, right?We're in our body andwe're feeling safe in our body. And so Ilove that you help people.To do that. And I know in a moment you'regoing to take us through a practice forthat. But is thatsomething that helps us to beginto rewrite thesestories?Like what would you say ifthere's, you know, Krista's three-stepformula or he probably have a more clevername for it than that, but as far asrewriting the story?What do webegin to do?Obviously recognition andawareness is the first step, or maybe youhave something else that's before that,but what do we doafter we acknowledge that there is thisvoice?And that we are thedirector, that we have ultimate controlover what this voice says. Then there isa practice of shutting that voice off.And it may for some people it may beimmediate, and for some people it may bethat you have to keep reminding thatvoice that it is no longer in control. Soyou're hitting the pause button and thenyou're making another choice. So here'show the here's the story that's cominginto my head. I'm going to hit the pausebutton and then you ask what do you wantinstead?What do you want in thismoment?Do you want to moveyour body?Do you want to connect withyour partner?Do you want to be able tobe joyful with your children?Do you wantto create something amazingfor your business?There is a choiceinvolved, and it's reminding ourselvesthat we have that choice to move forwardwith. I love that.I love that. That's the choice, right?It's that pattern interrupt. And I knowyou are very skilled and also apractitioner in NLP, which is a huge partof that, right, is that that recognitionin the redecision. And again, it's likewe're at, you know, it's a pivotal momentbecause we're either going down thatpathway and we're pressing go on thespinning cup ride or we are pausingthere and saying, oh, here we are again,here's that thought again, no. We'regoing a different way, right?Andneurologically, what we're doing there iswe're literally shifting brain activity.We are choosing a new neural pathway,right?You're choosing that in yourbehavior, in your focus, but in yourbrain, that's really what's happening,right?It's like a fork in the road and wecan go down that well-worn path or we canpause, right?That's where taking a powerpause, doing some of the practices thatyou're shared, you just shared. That's sobeautiful. And solet's. I would love to have youshare one of yourpowerful energy clearing practices thathelps us to do this. So Krista, would yoube so kind as to walk us through ourpower pause?So for those of you onYouTube who are just jumping in, you'relike, what?Who's this amazing, beautifulwoman?We are talking about taming yourinner critic and shifting the story soyou can change your life. And Krista isgoing to now take us deeper into thiswhole conversation by guiding us througha couple minutes of this beautifulpractice. So take it away, darling.Absolutely. Thank you. So First thingsfirst, ground where you are. Makeyourself feel stable. Let yourself feelstable. Let yourself feel supported.Take a big breath in and just letit out like a balloon.And then let your breath return to itsnormal cadence. And I justallow yourself to imagine. That there isa big shower head above you, butinstead of water coming out, it iscleansing, energetic energy. Whatevercolor makes sense to you, just flip theswitch and let it turn on and justfeel as ithits your head.Maybe it tingles, maybe it feels warm,but just feel as the energy, the residue,whatever was happening in your day,whatever other people tried. To pass offon you. Whatever no longer serves youjust runs from your head,over your nose,over your cheeks and your chin,over your shoulders, across yourchest and your backdown your arms. And you can use your armsto help push it offdown your torso.Over your hips and knees,calves and ankles and feet.Just let that energetic energy flow,rinsing you, letting go ofall that no longer serves you,recycling it back into the earth to beused for other purposes.And when you feel energized, when youfeel lighter. Just come back into yourbody, come back into the present moment,open your eyesand feel the shift. I feel the shift.I feel the shift. I love that. Thank you.And so we'll come back with a couple morequestions. But while we have you andfor people that are watching just theYouTube clip, you can definitely come andwatch the full episode. But I know youhave something that would take this alittle bit further for people that youare wanting to share. Will you share thatnow and let us know a little bit aboutthat?Yes, I think the energetic shower isa great quick release that you can doeven when you're standing around otherpeople. Just imagine it in your head whenyou want to go to that next layer ofreally cutting off the energeticconnections with other people, with pastversions of yourself, with thepast versions of whatever. You can usemy cord cutting meditation that I havecreated and this you just listento and you allow yourself to be guidedthrough the process of.Metaphorically, in your mind, walkingthrough and severing the energeticconnections that no longer serve you sothat you can relate to the people, topast versions of yourself, to yourenvironment in a new, fresh andbetter serving way. Loveit. And doesn't she have just the mostlike hypnotic voice?So I feel like hermedication would be beautiful for me. Sothe link to grab that free gift fromChrisa will be in the description of thevideos, YouTube, podcast, all the placesin the description. So thank you so muchfor that. That was beautiful. And thankyou for that gift for everyone. Yeah, Ilove that you said that we can do thatanywhere because I feel as though it'ssuch a powerful. Reset andclearing tool. And when you said thatI was picturing cause I do a lot of likein person networking and you knowand and social events and stuff and andwhen you feel somebody's like or you knowintense energy or it's just not your vibeand you're kind of feel yourself gettinga little some kind of way. And so I feelas though the fact that you.Once people practice this and getcomfortable with this, cause we all arefamiliar with the sensation of being inthe shower, you know, and feeling thatrunning down it. So hopefully that's a areally easy transition for people toget as an energetic cleansing andrinsing and clearing. So I love that theversatility of that. Thank you. Yes,yesAfter you practice it, you can installa express wash button so that you justpress your arm and boom, it is done likegoodbye. Thank you. It was nice to, youknow, nice to nice to interact with you,but that's yours. Yeah,I love that. Just like, yeah,yeah, man. I mean, we need all the helpwe can get these days. Holy moly. And soI love that. All right. The energeticshower. That's super cool. So then, yeah,as we are wrapping upas far as whenpeople are navigating, whether itis, you know. Anxiety or sadnessor or anything that is reallycausing them to feel off orsad or worried or what have you. Orthey're hearing that thatsuper critical voice of thatinner story that tends to play out forpeople. What is something that has beenreally helpful aside from all of theseincredible tools you have shared already?What has been something really helpfulfor you?To use in those momentsas an anchor, as a reminder thatyou can share as something that peoplecan really take away and maybe start tojust lant that seed in their own heart.Well, I really want people to rememberthat pleasure is a practice that thatthat this idea of taming our inner creditis a is a practice. And so ifyou start to get frustrated that you'relike I I turned it off and it still keepscoming back. It's just a reminder thatyour brain is is super good at keepingyou safe and it is super, super good atkeeping you like in known patterns andyou just need to be that ever-lovingcaring parent and parentyour. your brain to be like, no, we'vetalked about this. We're not going to godown that path. I'm going to literallyhit a pause button and I'm choosing adifferent movie today to to leadinto. Thank you.Yeah, because that can, it's just fuelfor the fire, right?For like, oh, thisagain, we're still doing this. My God.You know?Yeah.And instead of being hard on yourself,you can you can just celebrate like howresilient your brain is to like, keepgoing back to these tried and truepatterns and be like, Nope, we're playinga different game now. Reframe.Reframe. Yeah, I love it. And that's. Andagain, that's that's that can bechallenging to do when we're in the thickof it, right?Because of the what'shappening inside of our brain. And soit's having these practices woveninto your day, using the shower, usingthe cord cutting meditation that youshared, listening to tools like this,connecting with Krista on her socialmedias, which will also be in thedescription. I love that you saidthat because. It's a practice, right?Lifeis a school where we learn to rememberwhat our soul already knows. Like nobodyknows who said that. But it's so powerfulbecause it's one of those things that ofremembering and it's a returning againand again, right?And it's, I'm willing tobet that when the first time you got in acar to drive, you weren't the same persondriving that you are now, right?It'sbecome ingrained in you. It's becomepracticed in you. And then that goes bothways, right?These are really great skillsto be able to drive and not be freakingout the whole time, but also. These thesethings that they get hardwired in andthese patterns that we ractice so muchthat we start to think that they are whowe are. But it's it's not right. It's ait's not a mandatory thing and so throughpractice. You can get toget more comfortable with these differentpleasure tactics and and and broadeningyour understanding of what that means.Because a lot of times people think, oh,pleasuring, well, that's it's sex, right?Like, is that what you're talking abouthere?And so, no, that's what you said isthat it's bringing yourself into the bodyand experiencing yourself in a differentway, whatever that might be. And it 1000%could be sex, right?But you're wideningpeople's mind on this and I love that.Yeah, absolutely. Pleasure is in everydaylife. It is how we eat, it is how wedress, it is how we move in our body. Andit is starting to open the doorto feeling more and more andmore and not just thinking, not justliving in our stories, but bringing itback down into our body and reallyfeeling that embodiment ofwhat what is pleasurable about washingthe dishes, what is pleasurable aboutyour morning coffee and and taking it tothat next level. And that's it,right. It's like we we think it's goingto be this big grandiose once I get tothe top of the mountain and I have 800billion followers and I made $5 millionin the last three seconds. You know, it'slike we have these, these stories that webuild up for ourselves and it's it's thethe journey, you know, another adage ofthe it's a journey, not the destination,right. And So what you're saying is andwhich I love is how can we bring morepresent moment awareness. Into what we'redoing and experience being alive,right?And and widening our perspective onthese things and finding thatenjoyment. And so that itbecomes more of what we're dripping intoour day and more of what we'reexperiencing, not something that we'rejust out there seeking and chasingand striving and and wanting, right. It'sa big shift. That's a big shift forpeople. And I love that you're doing thatbig shift that can be achieved throughsmall steps. And you're right, once weonce we start to receive morepleasure in those everyday moments, ittranslates into the bedroom too. Wecan't. We're not two different peopleinside and outside of the bedroom. We'reall the same. And so we want to have abeautiful experience. Yes,1000 million percent, yes, because that'sreally what this life is for, right?Andlike. We get this one go around in thisphysical body, this this one go around,you know, and like, you know, whateveryour perspective on past and futurelives, all good timelines. Yep, we'reopen for all of it. And so, yes, but inthis moment here and now, in thisphysical being of the you that you are inthis moment, it's really meant to beenjoyed, right?And And when we have theseshadows of sadness and anxiety and stressthat are like clouds, and so it's whatcan we begin to do to?Expand our awareness and come back tothat wholeness and not not think likethis constant obsession with fixingourselves and healing ourselves andupleveling and bettering. And it's like,God, that's like a relentless pursuit ofself-improvement that can be a veryslippery slope. So I love that you'rehelping to change the conversation onthat. You too loving your podcast.Oh, thank you. I appreciate that. Allright. So we had our energeticshower. That's amazing. I feel, I feelrefreshed. It's like the brain over here,you know, Saint Patrick's Day the otherday. So that's why I thought it wasfunny. And then, but I did really likethat. Thank you. And so making sure tograb the free cord. Wow, that's alot of words. Cord cutting meditation.That will be linked up in the show notesand definitely connecting with Krista onher socials as well. And I know, are youmainly on Instagram or what's your what'syour flavor of the social media?I amprimarily on Instagram, but I am onLinkedIn and threads as well. OK, sweet.Thank you for that. And then as wewould love you to do is to take ascreenshot and tag us on yoursocials to help to spread this wordbecause this is so important, right?Mental health is a common thing for allhumans, right?And removing thisstigma and shame that can be so heavy andand it really hinders our pleasure and ithinders our joy and it hinders us fullyexpressing who we are in every moment,like Krista so beautifully said so. Helpus to spread the word. We would love andappreciate that this, you know, humanthing ain't easy. So all the love andsupport and connection we can get thebetter.
