    Here’s something that I hear a lot: “I know the things I should be doing, Kristen. I’m just not doing them.” So let’s look at why that is. If you want to create something extraordinary, remember: what matters the MOST is how you show up in your day-to-day life. If you’re not showing up for your future self every day, then you’re not doing the things you know you should be doing.

    In Part 3 of the Calm AF decluttering series, we are talking about emotional clutter. Emotions are energy that’s created and stored inside your body, energy that physically interacts with your chemistry, your organs, your cells – best to keep emotional clutter to a minimum. In fact, if you are tending to physical and mental clutter without managing your emotional clutter, then you’re really only surface-cleaning.

    In Part 2 of the Calm AF decluttering series, we are talking about mental clutter. Most people don’t think about clutter being something that accumulates in the mind. But we think thousands of thoughts every day, and not all those thoughts serve us. In this episode, I give you actions that you can do on your own to get the mental decluttering ball rolling.

    The physical clutter in your living and working spaces is impacting your energy; the calm AF approach to decluttering is an act of self love. It’s a thing you do FOR yourself because of how it makes you feel, because you deserve to feel SUPPORTED, because – while the tidiness of your house has NOTHING to do with your worthiness – it sure feels good to have a nice space to relax in. In this episode, I give you the three steps to decluttering the Calm AF way.

    Curiosity lightens EVERYTHING up because it isn’t looking for ONE definitive RIGHT answer. Curiosity is all about wonder. Curiosity is playfully looking for options. Curiosity is going to help you reconnect with who you really are, what you like, what you don’t like, what you want, what you don’t want. So you gotta put on your curiosity glasses. Put those sparkly lenses on and look around at all the things and just ASK QUESTIONS.

    Let’s talk about thought spin-outs. This is when one anxious fear thought shows up, and before you can grab the thought to manage it, it’s already spun off to another thought – and another thought and another thought. Thought spinouts feel like anxiety, they feel out of control.
     
    Most of the time in a spin out, the thoughts are fast and furious. They feel very very urgent and very very true and your sympathetic nervous system is like “looks like we’ve got a major emergency happening….let’s shut off all the higher level thinking and just survive here.”
    Once that sympathetic nervous system is activated, the thoughts aren’t in your control. Not until your body signals that the emergency is over. Today, I’m sharing how to regain control in the middle of a spin-out and stay calm AF.

Love it!

I’m loving this podcast! I love how you’re so real and understand that toxic positivity is a thing. I was an SLP to and have 2 neurodivergent kiddos and am neurodivergent myself. Can’t wait to hear more.
