Hi, I'm Kris Ashley!
I'm the author of the upcoming book Change Your Mind To Change Your Reality: How Shifting Your Thinking Can Unlock Your Health, Your Relationships, and Your Peace of Mind.
My book has been called a "must-read" by Anita Moorjani and has been endorsed by 14 of some of the pioneering authors who write about the Law of Attraction and spirituality, including 3 experts who were featured in the movie The Secret.
I work with people who are at a crossroads in their life and who are looking to reinvent themselves. My clients have reported feeling stuck in dead end jobs, longing for a meaningful romantic relationship, lacking passion and purpose in their lives, battling physical and mental health issues, and overall feeling stressed out and unhappy.
Did you know that three out of four people report feeling lonely and disconnected, like they are just going through the motions in life and that it’s happening to them and they are not in control? These people report feeling powerless, stressed out, insecure, anxious, lonely, and/or depressed. And they look at others whom life seems to come with ease to and wonder how it is that they seem to get everything they want. Some feel like they’re stuck in a rut while others resolve to the fact that their life is just average and lacks the potential and/or opportunity to be extraordinary. Another 60 percent say they are dissatisfied with their work. I could go on and on, but the most interesting statistic of all to me is that psychologists estimate 70 to 90 percent of people’s thoughts are negative and repetitive. I show people how to make the correlation between their thoughts and their current reality and teach you how to make a shift in your life.
But I didn’t used to think this way. I was an incredibly shy and insecure kid. I had crippling social anxiety, but I was also angry at the world. When I was twelve years old, I went through trauma that severely impacted my life for a great many years. After surviving four years of sexual abuse at the hands of a family member, that truth got out to my large extended family, and what was once a tight-knit family that did everything together, even sang any time we were around each other, split down the middle. Family members whom I had previously been close with told me they no longer loved me and I wasn’t their family anymore. I was no longer permitted to see two of my cousins who had been my best friends. One day we were inseparable, and the next day they were like ghosts. I have no idea what they were told about what happened. I was left with PTSD, a horrible self-image, lots of negative emotions like guilt and anger that I didn’t know how to cope with, and self-harming behaviors. I turned to drugs. I turned to cutting. I turned to anything to numb the pain.
My life changed dramatically at age seventeen when I was handed a book that completely changed how I thought about the world. It changed my way of thinking, my way of being, my way of understanding and moving through life. As I turned the pages, it hit me so hard that what was written inside it felt like the truth, and like a sleeper agent, something inside of me woke up. When I finished it, I started reaching for more. I became insatiable. I started devouring every metaphysical, spiritual, new age, and personal development book I could get my hands on. I watched documentaries. I attended seminars, workshops, and retreats. I dove in headfirst to all of the teachings I could find. I became obsessed with metaphysics, quantum physics, reincarnation, meditation, yoga, the Law of Attraction, the ancient astronaut theory, sacred geometry, biohacking, functional medicine, and different healing modalities. I couldn’t get enough. Every book was like a new door opening in an unending hallway. I wanted more. I needed more. I was hooked. My life became one big quest to learn, grow, heal, and expand every aspect of myself. It became my life’s mission, a purpose that drove me onward.
As I began to change my mind and get better, my mother began to get worse. Her family had been ripped down the seams. She started to get physically sick, with both serious illnesses and with strange afflictions we had never even heard of before and doctors could barely explain. She slept. A lot. At the height of it, she was on a Fentanyl patch, taking about eleven different pills every day, and sleeping for all but a few hours of daylight. She fell down all the time. She nodded off at the dinner table. She forgot conversations we’d had the day prior. This lasted over ten years while I lived with unbelievable guilt that I had destroyed my family and broken my mother.
In the end, it was my mother who inadvertently became my biggest teacher. For every step she took deeper into depression and illness, I climbed hand over hand in the other direction, out of the proverbial tunnel. I saw firsthand what happens to a human body and spirit when they go down that path. And then I saw what happened to my own body and spirit as I decided to change my mind about the nature of reality. I made a promise to myself that I would do everything I could to heal physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and that I would always prioritize my health.
Over the past 20 years, I've studied and practiced the Law of Attraction and it has created MIRACLES in my life. Now I'm a life coach teaching others how to wield the power that they were born with and step into a life that they truly love living. For the first time ever I'm sharing some of the strategies I use with my private coaching clients for FREE!
