We've got a SOLO episode with Coach Krysta in the spirit of Women's History Month and our goal to highlight badass FYX females all month long. In this episode, Krysta brings personal perspective and context to the 2022 Women's History Month theme--which is appointed each year by the National Women's History Alliance. The 2022 Women's History Month theme is: "Women Providing Healing, Promoting Hope." According to HISTORY, "this theme is "both a tribute to the ceaseless work of caregivers and frontline workers during this ongoing pandemic and also a recognition of the thousands of ways that women of all cultures have provided both healing and hope throughout history.'" Krysta details her own healing journey over the past two years and shares some of the tools, resources, and support that has helped [and continues to help] in her growth and self development. Some of those tools include: - The Five Minute Journal - Various books including: "How To Survive the Loss of a Love" and "Clarity & Connection" - Walking and outdoor walking meditations -- specifically time spent walking along the beach - Focusing on small, guaranteed daily wins like aiming for a 10-min yoga practice vs. a full 45-minute flow, or prepping just one homemade meal vs. a "perfect" day of 3 or 4 meals prepped in advance and tracked in a food tracking tool - Her responsibilities as a dog mom: studies have shown that walking dogs, as well as patting and talking to them, are positive impacts on a person's parasympathetic neural pathways--aka they support your ability to de-stress.
