Anahita is a credentialed spiritual counselor.

Beth Clayton (your host) is a soul-based life coach and TEDx speaker who loves to help open-hearted people break free from their own self-sabotage, outdated thought patterns, and past pain so they can deepen their relationship with their own soul’s intuition, speak their truth courageously and fulfill their most authentic desires.

She is the creator of multiple group programs, retreats, and transformational workshops, leading hundreds of truth-seekers toward finding freedom and ease in their relationship with themselves, empowerment in their lives, and the ability to take powerful and consistent action toward their dreams.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Anahita’s journey from a childhood trauma growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution, to being on the path as being the youngest Landmark Forum leader in their history, to her divine spiritual awakening in her early twenties, to becoming a stripper, to going deep into devotional service and then helping women take quantum leaps in leadership.
• The link between the divine feminine, shakti, and unleashing erotic energy with as we rise into new levels as women.
• How Anahita found God/Goddess in stripping.
• Breaking the myth of the linear healing journey.
• The importance of embracing messy healing journeys, integrations, duality, with twists, dips, pendulum swings, and surprise endings.
• The healing aspect of being witnessed and seen, rather than doing the work alone in a vacuum.
• The connection between trauma release and becoming a clear vessel for spiritual gifts.
• Why embodiment exercises and energetic awakenings in the body are the missing links between mindset and spirituality work.
• Why we can be awakening and still have a lot of self-loathing and have trouble living in our full power.
• The importance of being a forever student.
• When we create a safe space and the right conditions, trauma wants to be released and has intelligence for how to do so, much like a baby being born.
• How learning to see ourselves through the eyes of the divine feminine and mother nature can make us unflappable as we rise in leadership.
• Why we need activated and integrated women more than ever at this particular moment in time.

Worthy Stokes is the founder of HeartMind® Meditations and author of The Daily Meditation Book of Healing. She is a polytrauma survivor who lives with life-altering sensory loss since overcoming a complicated traumatic brain injury overseas at the age of 34. Her vivid Near Death Experience, a decade of advanced meditation training that began in 2008 with her introduction to Dzogchen, and her battle to retrieve her very own mind inspired her career of teaching meditation and coaching at the nexus of nondual wisdom, emergent neuroscience, and open awareness.

Worthy is endorsed by world-renowned medical doctors teaching at Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania, and beyond. She is widely known as a healer for the healers among award-winning CEOs, trauma survivors, psychologists, and somatic experts who appreciate her interdisciplinary perspective of meditation.

Worthy has spent countless hours with her neurologists reviewing maps of her own brain, she has followed clinical research studies since meeting the late Dr. Candace Pert in 2007, and she directly apprehends the mystical complexity of transformation.

She guides online meditation programs and shares her free time with her husband, who is an adult literacy expert; he helps her read and write. Worthy holds a bachelor of arts degree in Journalism, and she is currently writing her second book. And yes, crazy but true, Worthy is her real, given birth name;)

• The trauma that can happen in quarantine that is associated with activation and simultaneous entrapment. 
• The gifts present in the time of quarantine and global pandemic. 
• How Worthy learned to start living sixty seconds at a time.

• Why denial can be super valuable as we travel toward acceptance. 
• How denial keeps us separate from our intelligence and resourcefulness. 
• Why we always receive the information we need to heal at the exact moment we are strong enough to handle it. 
• The importance of giving ourselves and others grace as we learn and transform.
