0:07
You're listening to the manifestation station podcast i'm your host holly edwards
0:13
and together we can help create your magic,
0:21
hello you gorgeous manifestors we
0:24
are back with another episode of the manifestation station
0:28
now this is coming out a little bit late today I
0:32
have had a few messages saying where was
0:35
the podcast it's normally released on a Friday or the
0:37
weekend but it was bank holiday weekend at Easter I was a very busy girl I was
0:43
very busy and I kind of forget sometimes I do kind of forget there are people
0:48
listening there are people subscribed thank you for everyone that subscribed
0:53
I still can't believe that sometimes I think I have to pinch myself and think,
0:58
are you actually listening? Are you actually tuning in?
1:01
And it appears actually that you are because I had a few messages going,
1:05
where's the podcast, Holly?
1:06
Have you taken a weekend off because it's bank holiday?
1:10
No, I didn't. It's just a little bit late. There will also be one coming out this Friday.
1:14
So I refuse to miss a week. It's like a bit of a weird OCD thing.
1:19
It's also a bit of a manifesting thing. Like I'm showing up.
1:23
This is my podcast, The Manifestation Station. I've
1:25
said it's a weekly podcast so therefore I am
1:28
bringing you the weekly content I feel
1:32
and hope that you guys deserve and I'm
1:35
very very happy to have you here honestly whether you are
1:38
walking driving making a coffee maybe you're cooking some dinner maybe you just
1:45
need a little moment to reset this episode is going to feel exactly that a big
1:50
lovely reset because today we are talking about something that has genuinely changed my life.
1:58
And if you adopt this habit, it will change yours too.
2:02
It will absolutely raise and elevate your manifesting game.
2:08
You will become a master manifester if you can adopt this habit.
2:13
It will make you live a happier, more content, more peaceful,
2:19
more magnetic life yes that is true these are a lot of claims and I'm sticking
2:25
to them because I truly believe in it.
2:27
And it is really simple. Actually, it's what I'm calling it is this is a cheat code for life.
2:34
So if you are listening, if you have subscribed, this is a great one for you
2:39
because I'm going to give you the cheat code of your life.
2:43
And it's basically this, that you can start your day again at any moment.
2:49
So not tomorrow, not next week, not when everything is perfect,
2:53
not when you have money in the bank right now.
2:56
So this is more on a day-to-day level that if you've had a bad meeting at 10am,
3:03
you can reset at 10, 15am.
3:05
This is how quickly you reset. So we're going to get into this a bit more,
3:10
but maybe you had a really awkward conversation with someone at lunch.
3:14
Do you know what? You decide to have new energy by 1pm.
3:18
If you have one off day, it doesn't become your whole week because you are the
3:23
architect of your whole life.
3:25
So this episode really is about how this cheat code is about you resetting your energy.
3:33
If you've had a bad moment, something that's happened to you today,
3:37
an awkward conversation, maybe, I don't know, maybe you feel like you've been
3:41
ghosted by someone, you've had an awkward meeting.
3:44
You can sit with that for a few moments, 10 minutes, 15 minutes,
3:47
and then you can decide not to carry that with you for the rest of the day.
3:51
And that means you are going to be more energetically aligned to your dreams,
3:56
more energetically alive to happiness, peace, and be attracting in all of the
4:00
amazing things into your life rather than deciding to hang onto that one simple moment today.
4:06
And that's why I really want this episode to land with you, because this is
4:12
the cheat code of all cheat codes.
4:15
It's fast, it's powerful, and it's underrated in terms of protecting your energy.
4:22
This is one of the biggest things I talk about at the moment,
4:26
protecting your energy and doing everything possible to protect that energy.
4:31
It's also about protecting your mindset and
4:35
ultimately it's what you attract
4:38
into your life is fully hanging
4:41
on this simple simple technique
4:45
so if we think about it you cannot
4:48
control what happens to you you
4:51
can't always control what happens to you but you can
4:54
control how long you decide
4:57
to carry it and this is where so
5:00
many of us like knowingly give our power
5:03
away we are losing the ability to
5:07
manifest or feel good in the day because we are deciding
5:10
to hang on to bad energy
5:13
so if something happens maybe it's a comment a tone a situation instead of it
5:21
being a moment what happens is that we decide it becomes a mood and then it
5:26
becomes a mindset and then And before you know it, it's become a whole day,
5:31
sometimes a week, or dare I say it,
5:35
sometimes it might even become years.
5:37
So the question is, why?
5:40
Why are we doing that? Why does one simple moment in our life get to take over everything?
5:48
And the answer is because we let it continue.
5:53
We give it fuel to continue burning. We decide to pack it in our backpack and
5:59
take that weight around with us all day.
6:02
It's not consciously. This is subconsciously. It's not intentionally.
6:07
But we decide that we're going to carry it.
6:10
We're going to rethink it. We're going to play it over and over in our mind.
6:14
What could we have done differently?
6:16
We repeat and bring up and rehash those same emotions that we felt in that moment.
6:22
Maybe it was embarrassment.
6:24
Maybe it was rejection.
6:25
We replay and replay. And what we're putting out to the universe,
6:28
if it's a moment or an emotion of rejection, we go, hey, just to let you know,
6:34
I'm sitting in this kind of emotion of rejection. You can bring me more.
6:37
And when you're ready to get over it, sometimes we go, no, no,
6:40
no, I still want to hang on to that.
6:42
I still want to hang on to the embarrassment, the sadness, the anger,
6:46
the frustration, because we decide to carry it with us.
6:50
Now, there's actually something really interesting here from a neuroscience
6:55
perspective. And this is what I want you to think about.
6:57
And that is that when something triggering happens to us,
7:02
your brain activates your stress response so your amygdala fires your body releases
7:09
stress hormones like cortisol we hear a lot about cortisol at the moment.
7:14
But here's the most powerful part. The chemical lifespan of an emotion in the
7:21
body is actually really short.
7:24
So it's known that a chemical lifespan of an emotion lasts around 60 to 90 seconds.
7:32
That is it. So when you feel that surge of anger, frustration,
7:37
embarrassment, your body processes that
7:40
initial wave quite quickly within 60 to
7:43
90 seconds then anything beyond
7:47
that is the story that you keep
7:50
telling yourself isn't that mind-blowing so actually what does this teach us
7:56
with within this emotion if we've had this something maybe it's this bad meeting
8:00
at work and you felt really silly if you sit with that that moment that emotion
8:06
really has a lifespan of 60 to 90 seconds.
8:10
So you might replay it and you might go, do you know what? I feel really embarrassed
8:13
and I feel a bit mortified and I'm going to go and sit by myself for a minute.
8:17
Really, that emotion should naturally die.
8:21
It should fade out. It should diminish around 60 to 90 seconds.
8:26
Anything beyond that is the story that you are telling yourself.
8:29
You are packing that emotion into your backpack and you are deciding to carry it around.
8:34
So that could look like something that I used to do a lot. I used to replay everything in my mind.
8:40
Whether that was an interview that didn't go well, a meeting,
8:43
an acquaintance, or maybe on a date or something like that. And I would replay it.
8:48
Why did I say that? And when he said that, that made me feel like this.
8:52
Well, I felt really silly in that meeting. Why did I ask that question?
8:56
Or when I got told off at work, you know, I would play over and over and over again.
9:04
I can't believe that happened to me. This always happens to me.
9:07
And every time you replay that scenario, your brain thinks, oh,
9:13
we're still in this situation, are we?
9:15
So what it does, it releases the same chemicals again, the chemicals of cortisol,
9:22
the chemicals that go with those feelings of frustration, the anger and the embarrassment.
9:29
You are literally asking your brain asking
9:32
your body to re-trigger the emotion over and over and over so it's not that
9:40
the feeling lasted all day it's that you kept refreshing it so think of it as
9:44
like your laptop I'm going to refresh that and I'm going to play it again I'm
9:48
going to refresh that and play it again.
9:50
And that's not said with judgment because it's an easy, sometimes human thing to do.
9:57
But what's amazing is that once you realize that, you can also choose to stop
10:04
recreating it. You can make the decision.
10:07
This is the live cheat code that I'm talking about. You can make the decision to stop recreating it.
10:13
You can decide to put a pin in it and go, absolutely not, full stop.
10:17
That didn't make me feel very good on with my
10:20
day and this is what I have learned to do
10:23
so much more and I think since I started doing
10:26
this I think my manifesting journey kind of exploded for the better amazing
10:32
things started coming into my life I was more magnetic I was attracting things
10:37
on a daily basis and I think that
10:40
was because I was deciding the kind of energy that I wanted to put out,
10:45
rather than being dictated by the emotions that I might have felt earlier and
10:50
decided to carry them on, maybe negative frequency emotions like anger,
10:54
frustration, upset, sadness.
10:57
Is taking control and saying, okay, that was just a small moment in my day.
11:03
I didn't enjoy it, but we move on and you leave it there where it belongs.
11:09
And this is where that reset comes in.
11:12
Instead of asking why is this ruining my day we ask do I want to carry this into the next hour,
11:22
really think about that do I want to carry this in for the next hour because
11:26
that is a decision that is your decision that you have decided to make.
11:33
And I know that sometimes it doesn't feel like a decision. It feels automatic.
11:37
But now, hopefully, got the hiccups,
11:41
hopefully listening to this podcast and this episode, the more you become aware,
11:46
the more you realize that holding on to something is an act of continuation, letting it go.
11:54
That is the act of intention. And here's why and where manifestation comes into
12:00
it. Now, this is the big thing.
12:02
We hear it all the time you attract what
12:05
you are energetically aligned with so if
12:09
something negative happens to you and you hold on to
12:12
that energy you'll not just experience it you're broadcasting it that is the
12:17
frequency that you are deciding to jump on and operate from you attract what
12:23
you are energetically aligned to so if you had a bad meeting this morning and
12:27
you take that throughout your day.
12:30
Maybe that makes you more insular and you think, I don't want to talk to anybody.
12:34
Maybe it makes you more snappy with your partner or your colleagues at work.
12:39
Maybe you sit and you dwell on those feelings. You replay those emotions.
12:45
You are deciding to operate on a frequency of that negative emotion.
12:51
Now, the universe, we know this, the law of attraction,
12:54
it works like a magnet if you are then
12:57
deciding to carry around that frustration the anger the
13:00
fear the upset the hurt then you are saying to the universe hey just let you
13:05
know this is the frequency I'm on if you could please match my energy match
13:10
my frequency and bring me more situations people and events that align with
13:15
that negative frequency that would be great.
13:18
That's what you're telling the universe. Even if the universe wants to bring
13:23
you some amazing things, you're basically going, hey, no thanks.
13:26
I want to operate on this low vibe frequency.
13:29
Please bring me all the things that match with that. And that is a conscious,
13:35
conscious decision that you are deciding.
13:38
This is what you are deciding to broadcast throughout your day.
13:43
That means you're aligning yourself with frustrations.
13:48
That annoyance, stress, heaviness.
13:52
Now really, really think about that. Why would we do that to ourselves?
13:57
Why do we want to give ourselves more heaviness, more frustrations,
14:03
more pain to walk around with rather than going, hey a minute,
14:07
I've just realized I am the architect of my own life.
14:12
I am the main character in my movie. I get to decide what my next decision is.
14:18
I get to decide if I would like to leave my bad emotion there or if I carry
14:23
it through for the next hour, day, week, month, year.
14:28
It is that simple. It is you stepping into your power and deciding that you
14:34
are going to change and switch that emotion.
14:38
And life will respond accordingly, not because you're being punished.
14:43
You know, you decide to make that switch, the universe will match.
14:49
If you don't decide to make that switch, the universe is simply matching your frequency.
14:56
When you decide to make the reset, you might say, okay, that happened.
15:00
That was just a moment in my day.
15:02
It does not get to dictate the rest of my day.
15:05
You shift your energy back to calm.
15:08
Presence, openness, or just feeling neutral. And from that place,
15:13
different things start to meet you.
15:16
And let's be really honest here, like sometimes we hold on to things because
15:21
there's a part of us that feels like it's justified.
15:25
If you feel like you've been wronged, if you feel like you've been treated badly
15:29
or spoken to poorly, you might be hanging on like, well, they were rude.
15:34
That was wholly unfair and yes
15:37
both of those might be true but ask yourself
15:41
is being right worth ruining your day now this is such this plays I should say
15:49
such a big part in my life I have become what I describe as a keeper of my peace
15:55
and a keeper of my energy so there are times when people,
16:00
perhaps you're having a disagreement with a loved one or someone else,
16:04
maybe not someone at work, but you might have this.
16:06
But actually, you don't need to, or I decide that I don't need to fight on being right.
16:13
If I feel like that behavior, the way that someone spoke to me wasn't right,
16:17
yes, I will say so that I feel like I've aired it, but I don't decide to carry
16:22
it because my peace is more important than trying to prove to you that I am
16:28
right and that you're wrong.
16:30
It's that simple. When you step into your power, there is no need.
16:35
There really is no need to argue with these people and to try and match their
16:42
emotions, their anger, their frustration.
16:44
You go, do you know what? I choose me today.
16:47
What do I need for my energy? If I decide to step away, that's what I do. But what's the point?
16:53
If someone is saying to you, right, one plus one is 50.
16:56
Okay good good for
16:59
you I don't need to try and prove
17:02
to you that you're wrong why would I waste my energy on
17:05
that and that is when you step into your power
17:08
because moving on doesn't mean that you have to agree with what happened it
17:14
doesn't mean that you're ignoring your feelings or that you're suppressing anything
17:18
and I think it's really important to remember that it's not about feeling weak
17:23
and deciding that you don't get to speak up for yourself.
17:27
This is about stepping into your power and proving to yourself that you are
17:32
worth more and that that emotion is worth more to you.
17:36
You are choosing yourself over the moment and this is what you need to do every
17:42
day is to choose yourself over that moment.
17:45
Let's talk about how to actually do this because this isn't about pretending
17:49
that everything is fine. It's about consciously shifting.
17:53
Digging deep sometimes. I'm not saying that this is easy and they just go,
17:57
oh, la, la, la. I've left my little emotion there.
18:00
This is about, it's more than that. It does require a little bit of work,
18:06
a little bit of power, a little bit of kind of that mental push to get yourself to do this.
18:12
But here are some of my go-to reset tools, the ones that I use personally all
18:18
of the time. And I promise you that they work.
18:21
So the first thing that I do is I name it and then I park it.
18:25
So instead of spiraling, I say, okay, that upset me, that annoyed me, acknowledge it.
18:32
And then mentally say, that was a moment.
18:36
It's done. You don't need a full analysis every time. We don't need to replay
18:41
it and think, why did it happen?
18:43
Why did they say that? What did I say that triggered this conversation.
18:47
It doesn't need a full analysis.
18:49
That was a moment. It's done.
18:51
Not everything needs a deep dive. Some things just need a closing statement.
18:56
And by saying that out loud or in your head, that was a moment. It's done.
19:01
You are initiating that closing statement and activating it kind of signaling
19:07
to the universe. That is done. That is closed.
19:11
Considering it finalized and we are ready to move on.
19:15
The next thing I do is that I move my body.
19:18
Now, energy gets stuck in the body. So I decide to make a conscious decision to shift it.
19:26
That could mean that I go for a walk, I shake it out.
19:29
There are times when if you could see me behind closed doors,
19:33
you might think she's a little bit of a nutter.
19:35
I jump around, I shake my hands, shake my legs, and I physically remove the energy from my body.
19:42
It's like it gets the energy flowing, the blood pumping, and it can kind of
19:47
dislodge and break up that energy.
19:50
Sometimes I stretch and sometimes I even go outside and I ground myself.
19:55
I walk barefoot outside, I touch the ground, I stretch, I stand up and I kind of reset my posture.
20:03
So it doesn't mean, you know, I've said about going for a walk,
20:06
it doesn't mean you need to take an hour out of your day but it
20:09
can just mean stepping outside moving resetting your
20:12
posture and your physiology changes
20:16
your psychology and honestly try this
20:18
even if you wake up one day and you just feel a bit stuck a bit stagnant maybe
20:24
a bit down in the dumps move your body shift around jump and shake it out the
20:31
next thing I do is change my environment now this one is so underrated.
20:37
So that means that I get up from where I am and I change my environment.
20:43
So I might step outside, open a window, I might move to a different room.
20:48
It's basically signaling the brain, we are somewhere new now.
20:54
Therefore, we are creating a new story, which makes it easier to feel new.
20:59
Stepping into a new energy, shifting your environment, it makes it feel new.
21:07
The next thing I do, really simple, but it works. And that is a moment of deep breathing.
21:12
So if you have, maybe you've just had an argument with someone,
21:15
just take yourself away.
21:17
Slow, deep breaths will tell your nervous system that you are safe.
21:22
And when your body feels safe, your mind stops clinging.
21:27
The other thing that I do, which I find really, really useful is that I zoom out.
21:33
So the universe perspective is what I call it. Now, this one always has a way of grounding me.
21:40
And this is the way that I think. I sometimes think I am a tiny.
21:46
Tiny speck in a huge, ginormous, mammoth universe.
21:52
Will this moment matter? Will it matter in a week, a year, five years?
21:59
The answer is probably not.
22:02
And that doesn't invalidate your feelings. It simply puts them into perspective.
22:07
You deciding to hang on to this emotion, it really doesn't make sense.
22:14
It doesn't make sense. we've got one life, we are this tiny speck in a giant
22:18
universe, decide to walk away and change the narrative.
22:23
The next thing that always works for me is a gratitude shift.
22:27
So even if it's just three things, I come back to this often daily if I need it.
22:32
Right now, just name a few things that you are grateful for.
22:38
So maybe something that you can see, something that you can feel,
22:41
and something that you appreciate right now.
22:44
Gratitude and negativity cannot exist in the same space at the same intensity.
22:50
So immediately what it does by
22:52
reintroducing gratitude, we neutralize any negativity that exists there.
22:59
And I use this one all the time. So if I have had one of these moments that
23:02
for whatever reason has made me feel down, maybe feel stressed,
23:06
maybe feel angry, I really try and come back.
23:09
Maybe I'm driving in the car and I go through gratitude. Okay well I'm really grateful.
23:13
For my car, for my health, I'm grateful that I live where I live and that I
23:18
can walk over the fields and in the forest, whatever it is, come back to gratitude.
23:23
If you know and remember that gratitude and negativity cannot exist in the same
23:28
space at the same intensity,
23:30
then actually you'll realize that it's the most underrated tool,
23:35
the most powerful, powerful tool in the manifesting handbook, I think.
23:41
So it just gently overrides that current state.
23:46
So do we analyze or do we move on? This is really a really important question.
23:52
Do we process things or just move on?
23:56
And the answer is actually we're doing both because I don't want you to ever
23:59
feel that it means that we don't allow ourselves to process and that actually
24:04
are we just brushing it under the carpet and then trying to shift our emotions.
24:09
But actually we're doing both at the right time.
24:12
And remember what I said earlier, not everything needs a
24:15
huge analysis not every moment needs immediate
24:18
analysis I think that's really important
24:22
to remember is that one when we're functioning on high emotions
24:25
sometimes we we won't retaliate or act in maybe the best way because we are
24:33
still operating under those intense emotions now my mum always used to say to
24:38
me if there was something going on perhaps an argument with a partner or whatever it was She's like,
24:45
do nothing right now because you are acting on emotion and there is no point
24:52
acting on emotion. Let it pass.
24:54
Have your time to process it. Have your time to think about and come back to
24:58
it later once your energy is shifted.
25:01
So sometimes the most powerful thing you can do in that moment,
25:06
I'll come back to this if I need to.
25:09
That way we're not ignoring the problem. We're not brushing it under the carpet.
25:12
We are processing, but we're processing at a time in our control when we are
25:20
ready to and actually when we can see the whole issue a little bit clearer.
25:25
And also, you're not thinking clearly anyway. So in the moment,
25:29
it's really important to just regulate and reset.
25:33
And then later, if needed, reflect calmly with clarity.
25:38
This stops you from turning every small thing into a big, huge disaster.
25:44
Now, the more that you practice this, the more it becomes who you are.
25:50
And you become someone. and this is the most amazing thing because it may seem
25:57
like a simple life hack, a cheat code but actually it will change your physiology.
26:03
It will change your manifesting ability.
26:08
It will change the energy that you are operating from and the frequency on which
26:13
you're living on so that you become more magnetic. It is that simple.
26:20
It makes you become someone who doesn't dwell, who doesn't spiral,
26:26
who doesn't let one moment define absolutely everything.
26:30
You become someone who resets quickly and that is so powerful.
26:37
This could be the most powerful thing that you
26:40
decide to take on in your life because life will
26:43
always have those moments those moments where things happen that don't make
26:47
you feel very good but your strength is in how quickly you return to yourself
26:52
how quickly you bounce back how quickly you decide to take your power back to
26:58
take the reins of your life and decide what emotion you want to operate on today.
27:03
It's that simple, guys. The cheat code that will change your life.
27:08
So I would love to leave you with this today.
27:11
At some point, something might not go your way. And that is life.
27:17
Firstly, it's really important to recognize and remember that is life.
27:22
That is totally normal. That will happen.
27:24
But when it does happen, I just want you to pause.
27:28
Pause for a moment and ask do I want to carry this or do I want to reset if
27:38
you choose choose to reset.
27:41
You're not ignoring reality. You are choosing your energy.
27:45
You are choosing your energetic match to the universe.
27:49
You are choosing what you want to attract in.
27:52
Imagine you not making the decision and deciding that actually you don't want to reset.
27:58
And actually you are telling the universe it's fine.
28:01
Bring me more things to feel angry about.
28:04
Bring me more things to feel sad, stressed, anxious, frustrated, rejected about.
28:11
Isn't that the bigger picture? Now, if that doesn't give you the kick up the
28:15
bum that you need to go, yes, actually, you know what? I am going to reset.
28:19
You are resetting for your happiness.
28:23
You are resetting for amazing things to land in your life.
28:28
You are choosing the kind of future that you want to live today,
28:33
tomorrow, next week, the next year.
28:35
You are choosing what you want to align with
28:38
next and that that is
28:42
your power so if this
28:46
episode has resonated with you I would love for you
28:48

28:52
