In today’s solo episode, Krista details her Silent Retreat experience at the Art of Living Retreat Center in Boone, NC. For five days, she was free of EMFs, immersed in the Blue Ridge Mountains, meditating, taking walks, and eating based on ayurvedic principles. As someone who always needs to be ‘doing,’ Krista shares how these days of silence impacted her ability to turn inward, slow down, and shed the nonessentials.   We also talk about: The Happiness Training & 5 Sutras Bringing acceptance into your life Forming your opinion outside of what others’ think Not seeing intention behind others’ mistakes Surrendering to the flow of life Moving out of victim mentality Being present during meals & eating slow Connecting to your Spirit through play & laughter The way Krista’s body released and energetically shifted   Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!   Resources: Learn more: artoflivingretreatcenter.org Instagram: @itskrista   Upcoming Events: October 3rd: NYC with Nikki Glaser October 4th: NYC with Erin Claire Jones October 9th: NYC with Stewart Pearce October 29th: Washington D.C. with Heidi Stevens October 30th: Philadelphia with K&L   Sponsors: Four Sigmatic | Use code ALMOST30 for 15% off your order at foursigmatic.com/almost3 Honeybook | Use code ALMOST30 for 50% off the first year of Honeybook at honeybook.com Felix Gray | Visit felixgrayglasses.com/almost30 for free shipping and 30 days of risk-free returns Birch Benders | Use code ALMOST30 for 30% off at birchbenders.com Vitruvi | Use code ALMOST30 for 20% off products on vitruvi.com and vitruvi.ca  Daily Harvest | Use code ALMOST30 for 3 FREE Cups in your first box at www.daily-harvest.com Almost 30 is edited by Crate Media
