In this episode of Healing Horizons, host Yusuf sits down with Anna Machkalov to unpack why small moments can spark big reactions, and what your triggers are really trying to tell you. This conversation is for anyone dealing with anxiety, self-sabotage, procrastination, or habit loops and who wants grounded tools to pause, reset, and respond with more control. About the Guest : Anna Machkalov is a certified hypnotherapist trained at the Hypnosis Motivation Institute. She also spent over 23 years in cosmetic medicine and helps clients work with triggers, habits, confidence, and relationship patterns. Key Takeaways: Treat triggers like a smoke alarm, not a personal failure Ask “What’s my why?” before trying to change any habit Use “1-2-3, go” to beat hesitation before overthinking starts Regulate quickly with longer exhales to shift into calm mode Focus on changing the symptom and the pattern, not chasing every memory How to Connect With the Guest  : Instagram: annamachkalov.hypnosisWebsite: https://annamachypnosis.com/ Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?
