EP 28 | What are you Focusing on?

Are you vibin’ high or stuck in the fear and chaos that the news and social media outlets are feeding you? 

In this episode, Nancy puts Brenda in the hot seat to talk all about sound healing—what it is, why it’s amazing, and how it helps our bodies release the sh*t we hold onto (yes, the emotional baggage too).

We also dive into the power of intention. With everything going on in the world, ask yourself: are you focusing on fear or love? Spoiler alert—fear divides, love unites. You’re the driver, the president, the CEO of your own life. So, make that decision and move forward with it. Let’s create a life that resonates with love and alignment.

Episode 28 | What are you focusing on? 

 Hey, guys. Welcome to the Deep Dive and podcast with Nancy and Brenda. And we are back, baby. Happy Monday. Yes. Wait. Is Monday? It is Monday. I don't know the month of January. That is still on. Yeah, it's still going on. Still here? It's still January. Yesterday I went to gallery and they were like. It feels like January has been two years long. Like how you were saying last episode. Yeah, they felt the same way. Yeah. I feel like it's been. It's been a while. Yeah. And, um. But I'm, you know, it's good. Yeah. There's a lot of things, actually, that, that I wanted to talk about, or there's like, some stuff that we wanted to talk about, and then there's just so many things that just came up for me while listening to this podcast that we were listening to just Night. And I'm like, oh my God, this is a good subject. Um, but I honestly wanted to first start off like you've mentioned before in our podcast. Um, you know, the sound, the sound baths that you do in the sound healing. Mhm. Um, the sound healing that you do and you started doing and really integrating yourself a lot into that space. Yeah. You now like, have held, um, different events, uh, collaborated with different people within the same community. And I actually I feel like we need to talk about that. Oh, what should we talk about? I feel like there's. I definitely want to. Um. I have some questions. Okay. That I'm thinking that I have like that I have been thinking about. Yeah. Some that are impromptu. They're all impromptu. Dude, I don't know any other questions you're gonna ask me. She didn't even know I was gonna bring this up. Yeah. Kind of a little bit. Um. But, no, I honestly like. I feel I'm. I'm so. First of all, I'm so very proud of you because you literally, like, dove into this, like, headfirst. Yeah. You know, and I know you've been you've been you learned sound healing. And you went into, um, learning sound healing now for four years. Yeah, almost four years. Yeah. So it's not like you. You just learn it like you, you have the you had the learning. But, um, I know you were, you know, working. So. And if I could share some of that or if you want to share some of that, but like, okay, so we're deep diving, baby. Okay. So obviously, um, since we, you know, you were working when you started, so you went into learning sound healing and then we were you're working a corporate job. Mhm. Um, which really didn't give you the time I guess, or the freedom to, you know, set up the different appointments and really like go in deep. Yeah. But there's, I feel a lot. Some things there that probably had to be worked on for you. Yeah. Um, like you still had, you know, some work to do for yourself. Um, to really dive deep, but, um, you really dove deep. Yeah. And you really, like, went for it. And I just want to say, like, it's, um. It's admirable if that's the way you pronounce it. Um. And I just want to say, like, it's for me, it's amazing to, uh, like it. It amazes me. Mhm. And I'm in awe of the impact that you're having. Um, within the community and the community that you're also building. Yeah. Or being a part of building. Um, and I wanted to like, just talk about that for a moment and talk about, like, your events, um, that you've put on this last one that I went to. You put on an event with, um, Danielle that does breathwork. So she did breathwork and you did the sound healing? Yeah. And I honestly just want to, like, hear your, um, kind of take on it, like what you feel when you're in that moment. This last time for me, I for me, I kind of just to give you a perspective of where my question is coming from. I felt like it was amazing. Like, first of all, there was 21 people or I don't know, is there 20? Was it 21? There was 21 people in the room, right? Guys, I just went to take a video and like pictures for them for their social media. Um, but I got to experience the energy in the room, and, um, there was yelling involved. There was crying involved, and, um, and then came a soothing sound. Healing. Yeah. Sound bath from you. And it just felt like everybody was floating. Mhm. As you were playing and I just want to know like how do you feel in that moment. Well, first of all, I want to say I appreciate what you said and don't get sentimental and emotional. And I love you and thank you so much. I'm in my softy girl era. You are interesting. So it's interesting that you asked me this because group events is something that I'm still learning. Yeah, I'm not learning on how to do them or anything like that. It's more so the energetic aspect behind it. Um, what I've noticed with the group events is that after holding a space like that with that many people, uh, I have a headache, oh, a headache. After the group events, the one on one session is great. Perfect. I'm jolly the rest of the day. But group events, they still take, like a toll on me energetically. And that's something I've become aware about. And so it just it shows me ways where I can still grow as far as my own practices to be able to show up, um, and keep myself even more like what people call grounded. Right? And so during group events. But like how I, how it looks for me on the practitioner side, I'm, I, I personally feel like I'm literally tapping into the people's energy, um, and like, um, but with like a big group, like there's certain people that I can feel certain things from them, right? Like, oh, like I feel stuff from your heart space or whatever. It could be. Right? Um, but like a bigger group, like over 20 people. It's kind of like a collective feeling. And what I mean by that is, like in this last one, this last breathwork event, it was what I felt was just a lot of like, need to release, like it was just like a heaviness that you could feel in the room. Yeah. Um, but there was also like a feeling of hesitancy and like. Like that the resistance to fully allow the release of whatever it is they had to release. I could feel a hesitancy with not wanting to connect with the inner child. I could feel I could feel this resistance between the people. But in the session, in the event we had before that one, I could feel a heaviness on people's hearts. And I don't know if you remember, but like, people started sharing that there was a lot of things that they felt on their heart. Yeah. And like, I could feel the heart heaviness. And so before the on the practitioners end, what we feel is the energy of the people and it's like, oh shoot, well let me play this bowl more for you guys. That's what I was gonna ask, like, oh, and it drives you to change up what you're doing or does. Does the emotions or the energy that you feel from the people maneuver the the sound, the sound that you make or the the bowls that you play? Yes. It's it's so it's a very intuitive sound bath because I do my best to be in tune with the energy of the room and then whatever I'm feeling, then that's the type of instrument or ball that I'll play. Yeah, right. And so it just it just all depends. Yeah. Not all the same. That? Yeah. That's that. And I know that you I know you mentioned to me you you recommend like people do sound bath or sound healing. Um, occasionally like, you know, because it's not always the same. Right. And because, um, you know, there's, there's different ways that you can learn to let go of your shit. Yeah. Right. Like, all the shit we hold on to, like, there's different ways you can let go of it. And one of those is through sound healing. And, uh, sound healing is a very gentle way to, like, stir up the shit, is what I'm saying. Um, because we're mostly made up of water. Yeah. Right. And and so sound is able to move more quickly through water than through air. And so it causes this effect in the body that is like, oh, shit. What is happening? What am I feeling like? Why am I getting sad? Why am I crying? And so the sound bath allows you to bring up those emotions that you hold on to for a long time, or like the thoughts that you suppress for a long time. How does it do that? Uh, it does that through the frequencies. So just like when we listen to music, right? If we listen to Musica Romantica, it usually makes us feel romantic. Oh, yeah. Music. Yeah, exactly. Got it. This one is more neutral. Okay. Yeah. Okay. I see what you mean. Like so. So you listen to heavy metal. Heavy metal? Yeah. Like, if I'm listening to rap. Right? That brings the gangster out. If I listen to, um, radio, like Spanish music. Juan Gabriel. Yeah. It's different. Like. Like feeling. Yeah. Yeah, it brings out a different vibe. Listen to Wanda or whatever. I become a narco. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Exactly. So if you pay attention to what you listen to, it brings that out in you. Reggaeton. Oh, yeah. Right. Like in all this? I don't think I've ever heard you say. Oh, shit. That ass. That's hilarious. Yeah, you're Salvadorian accent didn't even come out in that one. No. Oh. That's funny. Okay, so. Yeah. So every so think about it in that aspect, right. Yeah. To a certain type of music it evokes a certain type of response. Yes. So music has frequency. That's what it is, the type of response that it brings out in your body. That's frequency. So samples. Every sample has a different frequency. And our body because it's made up of energy centers uh in most easy easiest way to put it, or simplest way to put it is each bowl that I play hits a different part of your body. Mhm. And so like it could hit your heart spot. It could hit like your pelvis area. I could hit your feet right. Or your head or your. So whatever energy you might have stored in these different parts of your body. Um, basically it stirs up those emotions or whatever you have stored in those particular. Yes. Is that okay? Yeah. Got it. Exactly. And so, so the the bowls, they, they bring out these frequencies that hit certain parts of our body. And then from there, like it starts stirring up the ship. Yeah. Yeah. So why is it good to stir up the. Well, it's good because one of the things is if we don't stir up the shit, we eventually get sick. Oh, it causes that disease in our body. Yeah. You know, all of that suppress stuff that we hold on to from when we were little. Like it begins to it has to go somewhere. The energy has to go somewhere. Yeah. Energy does not go away. Right. It's just like when people say. Oh, like when you pass away. Like alma. Yes. Okay. El alma is energy like that? Energy always exists. Like your soul. Your soul. So your soul will always exist no matter what. So our body is made up of that soul, which is energy. Yeah. So that energy that. Like, if we hold on to anger, if we hold on to sadness and we don't ever let it out. Yeah. Like that energy that comes with anger or that comes with sadness or that comes with grief. If we don't release it, where it gets stored is in our nervous system, which is in our body. And so if we don't ever release it, that is where we end up getting sickness. Like cancer of the pancreas, cancer of the liver, cancer in the lungs, uh, throat cancer. That's crazy. Right? Like, you get all the diseases. The autoimmune diseases. Yeah. Um, it all forms from the fact that we hold on to all the shit. So if we can learn to begin moving it and then releasing it, or transforming it into something that will actually benefit us, right then that's how you begin to, like, slowly. Like, you know. Yeah. And so you keep yourself obviously, like with doing the sound healing and doing the sound, but it keeps the frequencies or these emotions flowing out of you essentially. Mhm. Um, which will I guess in a way prevent you from possibly getting the illnesses. Yeah. Yeah it is. If you're living this life of like. Irregularly taking care of those things. Right. Because you could you I feel like you could like go get a sound like do sound baths. But then at the same time, like, there's a lot of trauma that happens on a daily basis. Yes, on a daily basis sometimes. So it's like, well, we have to continue doing that. Yeah. In order for us to continue moving the frequencies and the emotions through our body to release those things. Yeah. And not live in a state of, um, in whatever. Suppressed emotions. Yeah, yeah. Oppressed emotion. Yeah. So just like it's funny because I actually so I have this ongoing note thing in my phone. Yeah. And it's just like things that come to me that I eventually like will post one day. But I wrote something that said, like, you can get all of the massages, all of the facials, you could get your nails done, you could go get your eyelashes done, get your brows done, and oh yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You could do all of that, right? And it doesn't matter how much you go do that, or how much you go to the gym and look good on the outside and eat good and all of the stuff. Take all the supplements. But if you are not doing anything to address the inside, which is our energetic stuff, then you're still like shit. Still going to hit the fan with you? Yeah, it doesn't matter how pretty you look, how much you do not eat to like, how good, how much body fat. Yeah, yeah it does. You see none of that. That's the thing. I, I'm actually I think I'm ahead of the game here because I'm working on the inside first. Yeah. And then I'll start working on the outside. Yeah. Well, I know it doesn't work that way. It does work that way. It's been working for me that way. Oh. That's funny. No, but it's true. Like it doesn't matter. Like how you look or whatever. Like you still hear these stories, you know, of, um. Uh. They got cancer and all that. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. It's just that they're living with the stress or emotions or I don't you? You never know. Yeah. You never know. Um. And that's that's awesome. So I feel like. Wow. Like that's honest. Like, I I'm. It's crazy because I think sound healing breath work. Um, and obviously individuals doing, you know, regular or daily meditations and journaling and staying in tune with how they're feeling and the things that are happening in their lives that are making them feel. Whether it be overwhelmed, stressed, um, all of those things like, um, it makes a big difference. Yeah. Like, in my opinion, breathwork sound healing, you know, and doing these things on your own, like. Mhm. Doing the meditation and all of those things on your own. Like I feel that's the new healthy. Yeah. Yeah. It's my, in my opinion like same. Like it's. I feel that if we would, if this would become the norm for everyone, like we would be in this state of like just flowing with life. Everybody, right? La la la. Yeah. And like, totally. It's totally, totally doable. I mean, it's gonna take a while, but yeah, it's totally doable. Yeah. Um, the thing is, you know, it's sharing the the belief and the perspective. Yeah. Yeah. And and also people, people might also think like, well, it's not all about the inside, right? Like, you still have to take care of yourself and. Yeah. Yeah, but what I want to point out is that if you start with the inside, you will automatically shift how you look on the outside. Yeah. Like so you will automatically want to eat better for yourself. Yeah. You will automatically want to just treat yourself better. So I think there's a misconception when it comes to like health and stuff is because a lot of times, like you said, people do focus on what can I do outwardly? Yeah. because. Well, because at the same time, like, we're worried about, um, or we get stuck in the, like what? How other people see us. Yeah. And stuff like that. I know I, I personally was in that mindset, you know, I felt I had to look good first. Mhm. Um, before doing any of this. Ah. Right. Like I felt like I had to look good before or like if I post myself on Instagram or whatever, like, oh, I don't want people to see that I gain weight or whatever. Yeah. Like those thoughts come to mind. Right. Um, I don't feel that way anymore because I don't care. Yeah, it's not that I don't. It's it's I let it go. Like, it's it's it doesn't matter to me what other people say. Because in a way, it's like a reflection of the way they feel about themselves. Right? So I learned that. Yeah. And so it doesn't matter what other people say. But, baby, you look good. Yeah. That was good. You got me off guard. You caught me off guard. Yes. Um. But, yeah, I mean, you could you could definitely get caught up in those things. Um. And I totally forgot, like what you said. And while we were talking about outwardly. Oh, well, because you asked like, well, how often do you recommend people do this? Oh yeah. Yeah. Those lines. Something like that or something. But but yeah. As much as often as you can. Like you could go once a week. Yeah. Do a sound bath. Do it. Because like you said earlier, every session is different. Right. Especially like a private session group. Group sessions are different because it's a whole group. Right. But private sessions, like it's one on one, you connect more. It's catered to your energy and the things that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, yeah. I definitely recommend everybody to. If you don't know about sound healing or sound baths and like, kind of just new to all of that. Um, even breathwork, I know that you're, you're going to go get certified to do breathwork. So that's weekend. Yeah. So that's also like that's amazing to to do to do both, you know. Yeah. And to teach people the two things. Yeah. They're both very powerful techniques in both. They're very powerful in in the healing of of ourselves. Yeah. I feel they've been instrumental that those two have been instrumental for my growth personally. Yeah. And like letting go of a lot of, like, divorce mom stuff. Yeah. Asian stuff. Um, you know, self-limiting belief stuff. And so those two things together have been super huge for me. Yeah. Yeah, 100%. I feel like for me as well. Breathwork 100% has completely changed my life. Mhm. Um, and I guess my beliefs and, and those are I guess your beliefs are essentially what make your life. Mhm. Right. So your thoughts and your beliefs are essentially what make your life and breath work has helped me with recognizing the beliefs that I was stuck in that weren't really my beliefs. They were the beliefs that I was taught as a child. Yeah. And the beliefs that I was told were correct. Yeah. Or. Or not? Exactly. But it's a good way. Yeah. So breathwork, honestly, like breathwork, is definitely something I would always, I will always recommend to anybody. And it sounds funny and crazy because it's like when I've shared it with people, right? That are like, what are you talking about, Nancy? Like, well, you breathe. Really? Are you breathing out? You know, um, or there's different techniques to the breathing where you, um. You activate the DMT that we have inside, and it's kind of like a psychedelic, um, that allows us to go deeper into our subconscious, um, and allows us to visit, right, those places within us where we've hidden our shadows and where we've hidden some of our traumas. Um, and and also some happy stuff. Yeah. Like, I feel like that's something we don't talk about enough. Mhm. Like the happy stuff. Let's talk about it. No, no. Okay. That's another episode. Okay. But I mean I just want to like, it's I feel like there's also, um, it's I feel like there's also, you know, happy like experiences that we have and happy moments in life and stuff like that. Like, that is not always got to be, like, so traumatic. Yeah. Like, oh my drama. I mean, yeah, I think there should be a conversation where we talk about like some, some good moments in our lives where you just feel so proud of yourself as well. Yeah. As the moments that we're deep diving into where we're just like, oh, you know, we were we went through this and we went through that. I think there's it's it's a good balance to keep in mind that with all of the traumas come also some happy. Yeah. Some happy stuff. Yeah. Um, not a lot of them, but I'm just kidding. Not a lot of happy moments. No. Just kidding. Uh, no, I definitely like I feel. I feel my life has a has a lot of happy moments. Yeah. I think that just like me personally, I've always been like a, uh, you know, just a fun person. Mhm. In general. So there's been a lot of, um, fun in my life because of it. Mhm. And I, I've always, I've always had like this um I feel like I've always had this different perspective in life. And looking into looking at it from a. Not too serious, not too serious way. For the most part. Sometimes I get stuck in, like looking at it serious. Yeah. But I feel like I've been able to, like, get myself out of that really quickly. Mhm. Um, that's a good thing. But you know I it, we're talking about that like I feel you get caught up in the things that are surrounding you as well. Yeah. So like in talking about like taking life serious and taking life like these fun times or whatever, like there's just been a lot that has been happening in the world, um, that I feel has everybody living in fear and survival and stress and overwhelmed. Um, just the mere fact that you, you know, you have people that you've encountered, for example, from different places that have said like, oh, January seems like a two year long thing, right? That in itself makes you see how how people what state of mind people are living in. Yeah. And I feel there's a lot of that right now. And I feel they're very heavy. And I know that I, I feel it very heavy because I, um, I feel for people personally that I see posts like a lot of stuff on their social media about the things that are happening, uh, you know, like people that are not for the president. Yeah. And they post, like, all of the things that the administration or his administration is doing. Right. And it's understandable, like it's what you believe in. But I think it's also important for you to to step away from it and make it's making you feel like overwhelmed and stress and all of these things or angry. Yeah. Yeah. Because to the point that we were making with the sound healing thing. Yeah. Like you store all of these things in your body and all you're doing is I feel, in my opinion, I feel that all we are doing if we continue on. Um, reposting and talking about these things is giving it more energy, right? The more energy that we give it, the more it's going to happen. You know, and it's not to say like, don't talk about it because yeah, yeah, it's important to talk about it. It's a fine line, but it is a fine line. Yeah. Because you talk about you, you talk about it only to the extent to where, okay. It was talked about. This is how I feel about it. And some go cried out or something like go let it go. Right. Talk to somebody about it and then stop talking about it like, yeah, there's the only thing that we can do. Like, you cannot stop what is happening. You know, like, the only thing you can do is change yourself at that moment and choose how to respond to it. Yeah. And react or react to it. Yeah. React to it. It's true. And I feel like that's just, uh, there's just a lot, uh, there's a lot going on, uh, with both. With both sides. And I hate it, I hate it, I hate it. There's two sides to the worlds or two. Not the world, but in the United States or yeah, even family. I'm pretty sure, like you have people in your family. I know I have people in my family on either side. Mhm. Um, and to be honest with you, like there is some things that I agree on and there's some other things that I don't agree on. Um, actually I don't even think about it to be honest. Like I'm very I don't really think about it because I feel like I don't know enough. Yeah. To, I don't know enough exactly what the different like executive orders or like, I don't know enough of the politics and what it like, what it entails. And maybe that's my I should learn more. I don't know your ignorance. Yeah, that's my ignorance or my naivety or whatever, but I feel like it's gonna dominate, dominate my. My existence. Yeah. Yeah. That's what I see happening. Like it's dominating people's existence. And I feel, in my opinion, I have to emphasize that I feel, but in my opinion, there's more power to the work and the love that we feel for ourselves and each other. Then the hate and the, you know, the negative energy that we put out for whatever reason. Yeah. And it's like it's setting that dominant intention is is right or something like that. Like that dominant intention is, is your dominant intention to sit there and receive all of the fear, receive all of the negative stuff that is being reported, whether it's through social media or news, or is it your dominant intention to instead be like, you know what? I choose not to tune into this because I know this is how it makes me feel, and I don't want to feel like that. So I'm not gonna watch it or yeah, or any or post about it. Right? Because if it makes you feel that way, why would you post about it? To make somebody else feel enraged? Yeah. Why are you not instead sharing something like a more uplifting. Right. And it's like it's like being that awareness of what is my dominant intention right now and just be in that. Yeah. You know, be in that like, well, yeah. I mean, because it goes back to like you could choose to live in um fear. Mhm. And you can choose to, to live in that and live in that state. And I, and I understand because. Ah. Like, it's like I said, it's a very fine line because I understand feeling a certain way. Like I feel bad personally for the whole immigration thing that's happening. Right? And people getting deported and like, I like and again, I don't know much about it. I, I'm only going based off of what I see on social media. Yeah. And I don't know if that's the truth or not. And there's so many people. Yeah. Yeah. Like I don't know if that's the truth or not, if it is the truth. And that's really what like if it's happening, I feel bad for it. And all I can do is just honestly send, you know, love and good energy and vibration to the people that are going through that. Mhm. So it's kind of like it's not that I don't think about it. It's not that I ignore it. It's not that I'm naive to what's going on. If it, if it is. Because again I don't know, like I feel that there's a lot of things in the social media that are that you. It's kind of iffy. Yeah. Like like now we see some AI videos and shit and they look real as fuck. Like I'm like, yeah, I know that. Um, and they look real and stuff. So it's like, you gotta be very. I feel like you have to be very, um. Mindful of that? Yes. You gotta be mindful of the of what you're consuming. And again, if what you are seeing online or what you're seeing in regards to the news, if it's making you feel a certain way and you literally analyze yourself or take a moment to analyze how you're feeling after seeing some news, um, and you feel overwhelmed and you feel like heaviness, all of those things are like, those are emotions that get stored in your body, right? And those are emotions that affect you. Yeah. And so you have to you have to be aware of that. Yeah. Like, I know for me, like I sometimes get caught up in rabbit holes on social media and different stories that I look at. And I do go down this rabbit hole of like seeing all these stories and stuff and going into the story and like, digging deep into the story, you know, and, um, but then I catch myself, yeah, I catch myself because I'm like, I catch myself feeling a certain way or I just, I just know it's consuming me. Like I'm like, oh shit, I need to stop. Like like, alright, I had I had enough. Yeah. And then I stopped and then I, I like, I switch it up and do something else or whatever. Yeah. Um, but I, I but when I'm feeling a certain way or when I catch myself feeling a certain way for whatever it is that I'm reading, like, I definitely like I'm aware of it and stop. Um, I also one of the things that like, came up for me was like, I realized that because there is so much time that I was spending on social media, um, it doesn't allow you to it doesn't allow you or it wasn't allowing me to, um, be focused on the things that I wanted to, like, want to do for myself. Uh, so what was the one of the things that you noticed, like, aside from it wasn't allowing you the time to do the things you wanted to do, like. Like, can you go more specific into that? So it wasn't allowing me to. Um. Well, because you get stuck, you you you get stuck in those, um, in those feelings. Uh, right. So then you're just thinking about it, and then you're just stuck thinking about it and, like, going reset. Right? But then. So even when you want to you, you stop watching it or you, like, take a break from it, like you're still thinking about it, right? And then like, you catch yourself thinking about it and then time goes on like, oh shit, it's time to go to sleep now. Uh, or it's like you've been in this rabbit hole for two hours on this news story that you were just trying to make sure you got all the facts correct. And it's just like, bro, I could have done so much in those two hours. You know, so much of the things that I want to do, like. Yeah. So I, I that's one of the things is like to not focus on. So one of the things that I received was removing the focus from everything outwardly and then just come back to focus on everything inner um, within. Wow. That's big. Yeah, that's big. And I feel like it's very difficult for a lot of people to even become aware of it. Hundred percent choose to do that because they're so stuck on the outside stuff. Well, yeah, because it's it's so easy to live outwardly. Yeah. It's easier. It's easier for sure. And you could get you get caught up in that. Yeah. You get caught up in like, oh what. Like what's going on. What's the news today like, oh what's the new TikTok trend. Oh what what is this person doing? What is that person doing? Yeah. Let me look at everybody's stories. Like, you get caught up on all of those things that they take away from the things that you want to do. Yeah. And I was caught up in that like I was I realized that like, I realized like, holy shit. Like I'm spending so much time, like looking at all of these things that are happening on social media that I'm not taking the time to do the things that I want to do in my life. Yeah. What and who you give your attention to. Has power over you. Exactly. Because now, in this day and age, what every company is fighting for is your attention. Your attention. Yeah. It's the most prized possession that we own is our attention. And so if you're interacting with somebody or if you're interacting with something, you're watching like that person that whatever you're watching has power over you in that moment. Right. And, um, and not necessarily, but only power over you in the sense of like, if it's something that is not allowing you to grow or evolve. Right. Right. Yeah. We're just stuck. Like, that's how they want us to live. Yeah. They want us to live in this fucking fierce fight like fear based society. Yeah. That's all that it is right now. I, in my opinion, like, that's all that it is. Mhm. You know. And I feel like it's a tactic. Mhm. With the new administration like the like Trump I'm just gonna say it like I feel Trump is the person that's stuck in his ego. Mhm. And he could he could possibly be a good person I don't know. Yeah I don't know him personally. But from what I feel from him and the energy that I feel from him is not good energy. Yeah. Is this person that feels that, that lives in his ego and also has fear tactics, and I don't know if their intention is to do this or not. Right. But this is what they're doing. Yeah. Like them putting tariffs on, on um Colombia or whatever. Um, like it's just like bro, you're just trying to make us live in fear. Yeah. And they just want us to live in fear for the next four years, for whatever reason. And. Like just to be scared of them, right? Yeah, but also when people are living in fear or living scared. There there is scientific studies that show that their immune systems are lower. Everything works way less. Yes. Is not. We're in survival. Yes, we're living in survival. We're not living at our full capacity. Yeah. We're not creating. We're not expanding as a human being. And that's I feel the the type of environment that they've created. Right. So it's not like I'm for him. I'm not against him. He's a human being. I share my love and I share. I share love. Like, I, I he's a human being. Right. I love him because of that. Yes. That's it. Right. We should. And but but the fear tactics are there. Mhm. And it's like these are the type of things that you have to watch out for. Mhm. And that's, it comes back to what I was saying earlier is just stepping away from all of those. Like from the news if you have to. Yes. And one way that I like to put this into perspective is imagine because I think people forget how powerful they are. Yeah. Even though we can't, we can't be like, stop this executive order right now. Right. Yeah. As one person. One person is still very powerful and in this sense. So it's like imagining a body of water. And when a raindrop or a water droplet falls into that body of water, it causes a ripple effect. Yeah, right. And the waves extend out into the body of water. And what what people fail to realize is that that small ripple effect just went through the whole ocean or body of water. Okay. We are that droplet. And so whether we are in the fear energy or the energy of happiness and joy and love, right, we are causing, uh, a, uh, the ripple effect, a ripple effect in, in our society. Earth in our society. And so what I want people to understand and see is like, you're choosing what to throw out into society, right? What ripple effect are you causing? Yeah. Are you causing one of fear or are you causing one of love? Because at the end of the day, it has been shown that the highest frequency is that of love. And love can cure everything. Yes. And so it's choosing what type of droplet to be in this body of water. That was good. I never knew I was at top of drop. You are a droplet drop droplet. I don't even think I've ever said droplet before in my life. But it's true, and that's true. It goes. It really, like, goes with everything that that we're saying in regards to being stuck in, um, being stuck in consuming the fear and living in that fear. Just know that you don't have to, um, you could step away from it. You could step away from it and create your own bubble if you have to. You know, you could step away from it and and just do you. Yeah. And live your best life the way you want it to be. Um, without consuming all of the things that are going on or getting into it. And this is where I feel like it's a fine line because there's people that may argue that like, oh, well, you're just naive. And if you're being quiet like that's adding to the problem or whatever, like, like, no it's not. Yeah. It's not. I choose, I choose not to. Like you said, I choose not to be a negative droplet or droplet, a negative droplet into our society. Yeah, I choose to rather post higher frequency messages on my Instagram stories on my social media. I prefer to post something that will make you feel good, right? And not not add on to the things that make you feel and fear, right? Because we have to get out of living in fear. Yeah. To prosper. Yes, society. We're not going to get anywhere being fucking scared of everything. No. And right now, we're all like. It feels like our whole society is scared of everybody or scared of everything. People can't even talk to each other because one goes for Trump and the other one doesn't. And they're just, like, arguing about some shit. And it's like, who the fuck? Like, who the fuck cares about him? Yeah. Like, do your life, like, love each other, right? Like, let him fucking do whatever he's gonna do. Mhm. Let everything outside of you happen. Mhm. But control what you could control and you could control your emotions, you could control your reactions and you could control what you put attention to. Yeah. But you have to be in aware of what things are making you feel. Yeah. So that's the message today. Mhm. I feel like the let's be aware of what is making you feel. What if your social media is making you feel a certain thing and making you feel down and you just feel depressed all the fucking time because you're seeing all this fucking nasty news that happens. Like get away from it. Yeah. And don't share it if you don't want to make other people feel that way. Right. Or some people do want to make people feel angry. Yeah. Yeah. If I feel sad, you're gonna feel sad. Honestly. Like, sometimes they think, like, what would happen if we just ignore the bats? Like, everybody just ignored the bad stuff. Like, sometimes they think about, like, as as collectively. Mhm. As a human, like in our society or let's just say everybody in the United States. Yeah. Sometimes they think like, what if everybody in the United States. I didn't go to work tomorrow or stop paying taxes, stop paying their mortgage, or stop paying their mortgage. Or stop listening to the news. Yeah. We'd be so powerful, right? Yep. Like, what if what if, what if people. People don't stop and think about that, bro. Like, what if we just like. No, but like, nobody, you know. Like, we literally stop living in the in whatever system was created for us to live in and start creating our own system. Yeah. Like, yeah, it'll probably be chaotic in a little bit for a little bit because people are gonna there's some bad people and they're going to take advantage of it or whatever. But like, what if we just stop paying attention to the bad news? Or why don't we just stop paying attention to, like, whatever, you know, whatever is happening? Exactly. If you don't, if you don't agree with the president of the United, like if you don't agree with Trump, stop paying attention to him. Mhm. It's not naive or anything like that. It's just choose to divert your attention elsewhere. Exactly. Like you're the president of your own life. Yes. Not him. Yes. Thank you. Mike. Dropped. Boom! Be your own fucking president. Yes! Let's fucking go! Create your own life. I think that's one of the reasons, like, one of the things that I. When I posed to create your own life or you create your own life. When I post that on social media, I honestly like I hope the point gets across because it's 100%. You create your own life? Yeah, you could choose to. What you pay attention to. Yep. You could choose what you do. You could choose to stop working somewhere and work somewhere else. Or stop doing one thing and do something else. If you want real change, you could just change. Yeah. Just change people. Just change. Oh, man. All right, well, I think that's it, I feel like. Yeah, there was a lot. There's definitely. Honestly, like, I it's just passion. Passion honestly. Coming from passion. So if I said anything to offend anybody because this is a very sub, I feel like it's when you're talking about politics and stuff. It's a very, like, touchy subject, you know, because people can't control themselves. If it offended you, it's not Nancy or I talking about it, it's you. So check yourself. Yeah, I'd probably say it nicer. Yeah. You would. No, it's just it just needs to be said. You know how it is. Like. Like if if you tell me something and I get mad. Or angry or sad or whatever. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And, you know, and it was said in a way where it was like regular, right? You know, I need to check myself. Yeah. Be like, well, why did I get angry at them? You know, and so it's the same when it comes to politics. It is, it is. Yeah. It is. And it's definitely like, I feel like the biggest passion of mine is that is just trying to, um, I don't know, just try to show people that they're that you could choose, you know, you could choose what you focus on and you could choose what? What drives your life. Yeah. Don't let the things that don't let life drive you. Right. You drive it. Yes. You drive your life. You create it. Yeah. That's the real mic drop. Bam!
