Summary

Are you ready for a bit of a sh*t show? Today’s episode is messy, emotional and human - just like the healing journey. As Rachel tackles an extra-loud inner critic, she is dealing with extreme feelings of self-doubt, a scattered mind, and an unanchored soul. She shares how these feelings came about, why they are there, and most importantly, what she does to move away from that negative inner voice (hint: it’s not what you think). The healing journey is never the beautiful experiences we tend to see on television. Instead, healing is messy and hard. But it’s also not linear. No matter how often you feel like you’re moving backward, you have never stopped putting one foot in front of the other. Tune in for the journey.

0:00.0	Welcome back to the show. My darlings on today's episode of the podcast. I got to be honest,
0:07.2	it's a little bit of a shit show. I tell the truth about this very critical inner voice that
0:15.0	I'm dealing with right now that basically tells me that everything I do is absolutely terrible.
0:20.9	I share how I intend to move away from that hint. It's not actually moving away from the inner
0:28.7	critical voice that does the trick. I talk about how this healing journey that so many of us are on
0:35.4	very rarely is the easy-going, unbelievable transformative experience that we read about in books
0:41.7	and see on TV. Healing is messy and it's hard and sometimes we feel like we're moving backwards
0:48.0	when actually we are always moving forwards. Thank you for tuning in with me today. Stick around.
0:58.7	Welcome back to the show. My loves. It's time for a brand new episode of the Yoga Girl podcast
1:06.2	Conversations from the Heart. I am sitting here today having a hard time articulating
1:16.0	what is happening inside of me, which I can kind of laugh at because that is so rare for me.
1:23.1	If you listen to this show, you know I basically never shut up, talking and storytelling and
1:30.0	explaining and putting words to my emotions and my experience. It's something I do very easily.
1:36.0	It's literally why it's the whole success of this podcast. It's literally why I have a show like
1:42.0	this. That's why I do what I do because that's something that comes naturally to me.
1:47.4	And for some reason, just over the past whole week, I am having a hard time putting my inner
1:55.3	experience into words. And I'm experiencing right now a lot of self-doubt. Oh, tons of self-doubt.
2:03.8	My inner critical voice, it's almost like for some reason, the dial of the volume of my inner
2:12.4	critic has just gone all the way up to max for some reason. I don't know why. I feel like something
2:19.6	I just can't even control. And I'm in a space for the past week and I have some distance to it
2:26.7	because I can laugh at it, I mean apparently, but I just I feel like everything I do is just kind of
2:34.3	shit. And I can laugh at that because I know objectively, logically, it is not true. I know that.
