In this episode, I go over A LOT. first I go over the remembrance that you are the director of your life movie. Everything you do in your own life has a butterfly effect on the people around you and in the world as a whole. This episode reminds you of your power, not only over your own life, but over the lives of those around you. It is so important we take ownership for how we affect those around us and how living our most abundant fulfilling life actually helps people in the world. Release the guilt and feelings of selfishness of wanting more because your ripple effect has more of a positive impact than you think.

Hello, gorgeous souls, and welcome back to the Beauty and Positivity Podcast. My name is Alyssa Skinner. In today's episode, we're gonna talk about the brain because it's my favorite topic, and I'm pretty sure my friends and family are sick and tired of me. So you guys are stuck with me. So to begin, you may have heard this before in my previous episodes. Your brain is deleting millions of things every single day. Isn't that kind of scary when you think about it? Like, what do you mean I missed millions parts of my day today and yesterday? You did. Your brain said that's not needed for what we're focused on right now. You are literally missing opportunities, signs, synchronicities, opportunities to make money, to make friends, to find joy, to feel more love every single day. Your brain is wired to serve you. And it does this by seeking familiarity, relevant information to what you focus on most of the time. So if you're not focused on you receiving love and joy and money, your brain is deleting opportunities to receive those things. If you're focused on the lack, I never have enough love in my relationship, my job doesn't pay me enough, I'm capped at my income, I'm never gonna be rich. Your brain is like, yes, yes, yes, yes, let's find more reasons to confirm that, to reassure you that is our experience. And it's not because your brain doesn't love you. It's just if you're focusing on how bad you're struggling, you're always struggling. Life is a struggle, it's always something. There's never enough money, I never have enough time. I spend all my time going to work. I clock in, I clock out. How is my money ever gonna grow? It's always the same paycheck. Money never sticks around. Sometimes it comes, sometimes it goes. Your brain is constantly seeking information to prove you right because you've wired yourself this way for years and years and years. These are the thoughts you've chosen. And you may feel like that wasn't my choice, but that's like saying the pencil wrote those words, not me. My hand had no choice in that. The pencil just started writing shit. Absolutely not. Your hand is telling the pencil what to write, your hand is guiding the pencil. This is the same for you and your brain, your thoughts. You are guiding your mind. You just forgot that you were, and you went on autopilot. You forgot to redirect your mind, to guide it to what you want, to think about what makes you feel good, to what you want to experience. You've just literally allowed your mind to have a mind of its own. But that is not permanent. That's why I talk about this stuff. You can choose to believe or not believe what I'm about to say, but quantum physics has literally proven we live in a sea of subatomic particles. These are just little tiny particles that make up molecules, that make up atoms. I'm pretty sure that's the order. Don't quote me. And these tiny subatomic particles are all around us, just forming our reality. Literally, the chair I'm sitting on, the mirror in front of me, my plant over here, like we think this is real because it feels so real. I'm gonna stop there, I'm not gonna get too deep. But these this sea of particles around us, literally, what makes up everything, is a sea of infinite possibilities. Meaning these particles are only doing what you're asking them to do with your mind and your thoughts. Go on YouTube, okay. I teach this in my Enlightened Babe Academy, so you're getting free info right now. But go on YouTube and look up double slit experiment, also known as the observer effect. You can search either one. We have proven scientists have literally spent their lives proving this. You are the observer, and you are affecting the subatomic particles, the observer effect. You are the observer, you are affecting the subatomic particles, which is our reality. You're literally coding them with your thoughts. When you finally accept this as truth and you study enough about it the way I have, you have so much conviction in your ownership of your life. But again, we'll get there. These subatomic particles are literally doing, acting, forming, creating whatever it is you expect them to do, act and form. So this is very difficult to accept because you may not be completely happy with your life right now, but that is not your fault. You were given your beliefs by the person before you, who was also given their beliefs by the person before them. Not to mention all the propaganda involved in that and your neighborhood and the society wherever you grew up, all that affects your beliefs and your inner baseline of vibration. So my point is you have to take your mind back and begin to guide it again. Literally take control back from your own body and you say, I, this is my body, this is my brain, these are my thoughts. I am not going to let whatever thoughts, you know, around me from other people or past experiences just creep in whenever they feel like it. Absolutely not. So I want you to wake up every single morning and decide and affirm to yourself out loud, opportunities of more money find me effortlessly every moment of every day. Anyone who does not light me up or make my day better simply loses access to me. They just stop finding me. I choose to stop meeting these people completely. Remind yourself you are the main character of your life. You are writing your story, you just forgot. You forgot to be deliberate, you forgot to tell the pencil what the F to write. Okay, the pencil just started writing. You forgot to wake up and choose what was going to happen in today's episode. Your movie. Literally. Every morning you wake up, you're in a brand new episode. And the second I started looking at my life as a movie, I felt like I regained control and I actually felt lit up. I was excited. I couldn't wait to see what I could make my life do today. And I started with these tiny little games, small games, but challenging enough so that it was fun. So I used to work at a wax center full-time, loved my job. It was easy, got to talk to a new person every 15 minutes, and I made really good money. And I didn't have clientele, right? This the center, the wax salon, whatever provided all the clients. So I would make a percentage off of every single service that I did, and I made tips. Every single client, 10 to 15 minutes, I'd receive a tip cash in my hand. Some people would tip me 20 bucks after a 10-minute visit with me. And that made me so appreciated. And I felt abundant. And I decided, okay, if I could make $20 every 15 minutes, right? Every single client I see today, I have 45 clients on the schedule. And if I have if I decide in today's episode, every single one is going to tip me a $20 bill. That's $900 just in a six-hour day at work. You guys, just in tips, side note, if you are coming out of esthetician school or beauty school and you're terrified of not having enough money to pay your way as you build clientele or you try to rent your space and you have to pay rent, whatever, highly recommend European Wax Center. Everyone has their opinions because every location is different. It's a franchise. I absolutely enjoyed my experience at European Wax Center. I worked there, I worked at the San Diego locations. So that was my experience. I had a great manager there, a great team, and I did end up transferring to the Knoxville location. Not as great of an experience, but the money was still there. And it's not about your manager, it's not about your team, it's not about the clients. Regardless, it's a great money opportunity. So I just wanted to put that out there. Um, it made me a master waxer. Again, I was trained in San Diego and I really liked my trainer, my team, and my location. So I do give all my talent to them, and that is my experience there. Of course, I had a will to become the best because I have some competition in me. But, anyways, okay. I decided I was living in a movie and I am creating that movie. And so I got in the car and I started driving to work, and I'm like, okay, I'm gonna make $20 from every single client today. And normally I would only have like four clients, maybe five, that would tip 20 bucks, right? The rest would tip five or 10. And so $20 bills, that was like an exciting moment. You're like, nice. And they were occasional, but they weren't so rare that it was unrealistic, but it was challenging enough. And so I talk about that in my Inlight and Babe Academy. You have to choose goals that have a bit of challenge to them, but not so challenging that it's your brain just gives up and it's like that's never gonna fucking happen. So it was challenging enough because I've definitely seen it happen, but I was challenging myself to the full day, right? All my tips are gonna be $20 bills today. It's done. And I had to think about something else immediately because immediately doubt will creep in. If you don't decide and then just move on, that tiny little voice is gonna pop up. And this takes practice. I've shared this before. The way that I prevent doubt from creeping in, when I declare a manifestation like that, I'm gonna make $20 bills today from all my clients. That tiny little voice immediately goes off and goes, Yeah, but what if you don't? It probably won't happen. That's not likely. You've never seen that happen, girl. Like, yeah, you wish. And so I had to practice quieting that little voice. When I'm declaring something that I want, I decide to be a brat about it. And there is no better way to say it. I turn into a brat, and I don't care because so much religious conditioning has been put into us. You're too selfish if you want more. You need to fear God. In my opinion, that's all bullshit. You do not need to believe what I believe. This is what I believe. God is energy, God always says yes. We are the ones that put the ceiling over our head, not God. People are just blaming God. No, that's that's our limitation, that's our lack of faith, that's our tiny little voice of doubt, right? God always says yes. So I become a little brat because I'm like, that's the only way I can get that tiny little voice to shut up. So I'm a little brat and I say, I want it, I don't care. Today it's happening. And then I immediately start thinking about something else or focusing on something else. That's what works for me. That's how I started making 10K months. And so, by the way, that 10K month, my first one, before I even made that ever in my life, I was doing the math on paper, and I was like, okay, I have to charge this much, work this many hours. It was impossible. Just to cut the story short. On paper, it was physically impossible for me as one person working a regular normal amount of hours that someone could possibly work. It was impossible. And I looked at the book and I was like, oh my gosh, I'm never gonna make my dream income. I love my career, I'm not switching careers, and I was devastated that I finally found my passion and yet I would never have my dream income. And then it clicked, and I was like, wait, I am not in control of the how. That's actually insulting to the universe. That the how is not your job. You are a co-creator. I am a co-creator. I decide what I tell the subatomic particles what to create. God, the universe, decides the how. It moves everything around, it decides the vehicle and how things arrive. So stop trying to make things arrive the way you want them to and when you want them to. Decide it's done, be a brat, and it is done. So that day I went into work, and at the end of the day, I grab all my tiny little envelopes from the receptionist. I get in my car, open them, all the envelopes were tips. And every single one was a $20 bill. You guys, I was still surprised. I was like, what? I was shocked, and I was still like, holy shit, it worked. That's insane. I'm in disbelief. That's a coincidence. No, I knew it was all up to me. I have to redirect my movie. I need to get back in that director chair and take ownership. So you have to bring your faith into the picture as well, as well as science, because you're listening to my podcast episode, and I'm here to tell you they are absolutely intertwined. If you are in denial about science being connected to God, the faith, the universe, source, whatever, that's just your conditioning to work through. Okay. In my opinion, in my world, my reality, my movie, I should say, they are absolutely intertwined. Science is provening infinite intelligence, God, source, energy, universe, every single day. And that's why it's so important that you understand how your brain works. You have to live with it every single day. It's your body. You walk around with it every day, and you know nothing about your brain. That's actually crazy when you say that out loud. You're like, wait, why does my brain do this? Or how does it do this? How come some people live this life and I live this life? Like, we have the same skin and body and blood, and like, what? Does God love them more? No. It's it's you taking control of your life. So I definitely this is why I have a passion for sharing about the brain, because we have to take a college course to learn about our body. That's kind of crazy to me. Um, I don't know why in my biology class we had a competition to untangle, untangle pig intestines. That's disgusting and so sad. Anyways, moving on. I loved science and I was really disappointed in how little we learned about ourselves. But, you know, we learn how to reproduce, but we don't learn how our brain works. Interesting. So that's why I come on here and I share this. Also, because I just love learning about it. It's so crazy. Our brain literally deletes information, distorts information, and generalizes information. Every time you are out in the world taking in information, taking in, taking in at 11 million bits per second. It's actually insane per second. I don't know what a bit is, but it's a lot. It's 11 million of them, okay? And your brain is generalizing them, it generalizes people into groups, into moments that match up a past experience, right? We dehumanize when we're in the car on the road. It's like our brain just shuts off information because it's conserving energy, and our brain distorts information. This might be a terrible example, but we've all been in that relationship, that terrible relationship, where we're like, ew, what was I doing? And we know the guy's lying, and there's like some excuse of why it could make sense. No, I was doing this because of this, and you're like, hmm, I guess that makes sense, but I don't know, something about it feels off. Your brain is just distorting this experience to fit into something comfortable and familiar, so you don't have to make the hard decision. I don't know, maybe someone says something playful to you. You know, they're just a little banter and you get triggered by it, and your brain distorts it as whatever they said as a personal attack, but it's not. Your brain is just processing information however you taught it to process information. When you're a kid and you play the red car game, okay, let's look for 10 red cars. I don't know, I never played that game. That's like a big example. It's pretty common, apparently. I played the license plate game though. So your brain is like, okay, let's look for all the license plates from every state. Let's look for red cars. Whoever counts the most red cars wins. You know, your brain didn't care about any of that information before. It was deleting all of it. It wasn't relevant. And so it's conserving energy by just focusing on whatever's relevant to you right now. The whole system in our brain that does this is the reticular activating system. It deletes, distorts, generalizes. I've talked about this before, and I'll talk about it forever. But it gives you so much grace in the world when you understand this part of your brain. It allows you to believe there's more opportunities in the world, more money on the way to you. You just haven't accepted it yet. You haven't seen it, you haven't seen the proof yet. Your brain is literally only keeping a hundred and something bits out of 11 million bits per second. That's wild. So that's where that whole rumor came in as children. We've all I definitely heard this. You probably heard this. Like, oh, we only have access to this much of our brain. It's really because our brain's deleting everything. So your brain is just prioritizing what you prioritize: going to work, going home. You know, what's the quickest way to get home? Where can I get food today? So, what time should I shower, right? And you go on autopilot so easily. In autopilot, you're no longer being deliberate, right? You just kind of tune into whatever society's doing. You go on autopilot and you just start going with the flow. But that's not creating your dream life. Most of society is not living their dream life. And most of society is literally just bitching about the government and taxes and economy and like who isn't on government assistance? Who is? And like, get over it. Seriously. That's what you want to spend your life on earth focused on doomsday? That is so sad to me. Absolutely sad to me. I truly just don't give a fuck about any of those things. Like, you can sit there and say and explain how it affects you, it affects me, it affects us in the world. My brain is not finding any of those negative effects. Okay. I'm waking up and experiencing joy, love, abundance every freaking day. I go out in the world and I'm offering love and abundance and joy to everyone around me. That's a good life, right? I'm hiding money in the grocery store because that's fun. That makes me feel good. That makes me feel abundant. I love to give. I'm focused on what I can control right now. I donate to charities. I donate to people, to families in need. At Christmas time, I bought a little boy a whole bedroom set, comforter, a basketball. Like I bought him everything plus some on his little angel tree um Christmas list because he said his mattress was on the floor and it broke my heart. So hell yeah, I bought him as many things as I could on Amazon and I spent a ridiculous amount because I can. And guess what? Before I started doing this work, I could not afford those things. Imagine that. Before I started focusing on love, abundance, money, um, whatever, receiving and giving and focused on the good, all of a sudden I can afford these things. I can afford to give my delivery driver a snack cart with the best freaking snack options, a cooler full of Alanis and Gatorade and water, like with cold ice packs. And that's just like I stock my fridge with Alanis for my husband and I stock my salon fridge. Like I am abundant, I have love and I have joy because I started leaning into that. And I started learning about the brain. I started doing the work you are here doing right now. So just don't listen to miserable people. Please do not take on their beliefs. Do not take on whatever they say as truth because that is their world they are living in. That is their movie. You will either join their movie as a character or you'll make your own. So I apologize for some of the explicit language today. I'm very passionate about joy in the world. That's all I care about. Love and joy. Seriously. And experiencing fun things. Like luxury things are fun to me. Do not feel guilty for wanting luxury things. Do not feel guilty for wanting money. In fact, I do have something coming out soon about money and how to release guilt around money, how to bring in more money, how to regulate your nervous system. You'll see. I'm super excited. I am still doing my own nervous system regulations. So I'm excited to teach you what I what I've learned so much or recently. Um, so anyways, these people who are not living their dream life, they simply don't understand energy. They don't understand that they are perpetuating energy. You are perpetuating energy. So I'll leave you with this short little class on the perpetuation of energy because we all perpetuate experiences for ourselves and for other people. People. Okay, we don't manifest for other people, but we co-create because we are all one. We are all from the same source, we are all from the same God, we are all one. So we affect each other. Again, quantum physics has proven this. It's called quantum entanglement because we are all one. Most people only think quantum entanglement revolves around love and partners. It's for every single one of us. We are all connected. So when you are hurting, the world is hurting. When the world is hurting, you are hurting. But when the world is joyful, you're joyful. When you are joyful, the other people are joyful. You absolutely have a ripple effect, a butterfly effect. So take your vibration seriously. So when you see something sad, let's say it's a homeless man on the street in the rain, in the cold, and or you see something on the internet, right? Happening in another place. That's so common right now. Get that algorithm up, girl. This devastating image or situation that you see, it can immediately trigger sadness and hopelessness for the world, for them, and their situation. It's a low vibration. It is coming from love, but not in a high vibration. So it's coming from pity, truly. It's actually not love, but we confuse empathy with love. So when you see that we are humans, or I'm sorry, when you see that human and you are feeling their emotions, you're feeling sorry for them, you wish they you could help them, you wish they would get out of that situation, you are perpetuating that person to feel more sad and lonely than they already do. Because they are already feeling hopelessness in the world, they're already feeling sadness, they're already feeling low. And when you add to that by feeling hopelessness, low, etc., you are expanding that low vibration. And if you want to learn more about that, you can read the book Ask and It Is Given by Abraham Hicks. It's very difficult for me as an empath to not feel those things for people. I am a human and I feel other people's feelings immensely. So when I see something sad, I understand that I perpetuate energy. So of course, I feel I feel sad. I'm like, how can I help them? And then I do what I can to help. I'm not saying don't help. Pull over, give them an umbrella, give them some food, some water, a blanket. And as you're leaving, remember you are expanding the energy in this situation. So focus on something you want because if you focus on it too long, the sadness, you're making that bigger and bigger and you're perpetuating it longer. Why do you think the world looks the way it does? So many people are focused on doomsday, they're focused on what's wrong with the world, they're focused on how people suck. And you know what? Every single person I meet in my experience says that. So who's in the world sucking? If everyone I meet is saying, I wish people were better, who do we need to be better? Like we're not physically experiencing those people, and of course, occasionally we do. But that is the evidence in front of me. Most people I meet just want better, they want love, right? They want safety, they want, they want good. So that says to me, the world is mostly good. Okay, you're just being told the world is bad. Everyone's saying the world is bad, and so we are all perpetuating bad. And it's very difficult to stop focusing on the bad topics because of course it affects people and we love people, and it will affect you too if you, you know, don't focus on the other side of the story. So, what I want you to do, and well, I'll say what I do. You can do whatever you want. When I feel these low vibrations, I feel sad for someone, and I'm expanding their sadness and their unfortunate situation. I do not want to expand negative experiences for them. I absolutely take responsibility for my place on this earth. And I feel bad, I'm human, and then I immediately start putting effort into something else. I decide to start visualizing them, getting out of that situation, finding health, finding love, finding relief that it's just over, they got out of it. Do not perpetuate, sorry, I do not perpetuate a negative experience in the world. I feel love for them, I help them. If they are literally physically in front of me, I help them. Even on the internet, I help. I send money. And then after I've done that, I feel it. I'm I honor my true emotions as a human and my way to help. Then I visualize them: getting out, finding relief, finding love, finding health. Again, I've read so many books on the expansion of energy. We are perpetuating the experience by feeling the same emotion. So feel the emotion that shifts their situation, right? And send that energy and love their way. There have been so many scientific studies done that we absolutely affect other people. We all believe we are one, we all believe we're from the same God, but we don't accept responsibility for our joy and how it affects others or our lack of joy and how it affects others. It all goes hand in hand. It's absolutely important that you live a happy, abundant life full of love. You can never be poor enough to stop poverty. You can never be sick enough to stop sickness and disease. You can never be hungry enough to stop world hunger. Allow yourself to receive more because you are better for the people in need in this world. Your happiness sends a ripple effect out in the world. Right? When you have more money, you have more money to give. Wanting more money is not selfish. When you are healthy, you're healthy enough to help someone else in need. When you are happy, you're happy enough to pour into someone's empty cup. When you have an overflow, you can pour into others. When you are running on empty because, well, the world's not happy, this person's not happy, these people are starving. I I'm not gonna take more than I need. You are hurting people more. You absolutely need to pour into your own cup. Put your oxygen mask on and then put the oxygen mask on the other people. So I am done today. I hope you enjoyed. I know it was a little heavy, a little passionate. I decided I'm not going to hold myself back as much because and not every episode will be this way. Today I felt inspired. I was just sipping my coffee and wanted to share because I care about love in the world. I care about happiness in the world, and I care that you are happy. I want you happy. I have to live with you on this earth, okay? Please be happy. Whatever makes you happy love, money, abundance, health, fitness, a big house, a luxury car. I don't care. Make yourself happy because you can help others be happy too. So I love you so much. Go out and spread love to anyone with a frown on their face today. Thank you so much for listening. Bye.
