Is that not f***ing mind-blowing to anybody else, and nobody talks about how the f*** is literally f***ing the f***ing. Today, I'm going to talk about one of the most mind-blowing things that exists in our world that, for some reason, nobody ever talks about. And it's called the placebo effect. You've probably heard the phrase before, you might know what the placebo effect is. You might even be in the same situation as me, and you might think, why in the hell does nobody talk about this thing called the placebo effect? So, we're going to dive into what it is, what makes it so mind-blowing, and then how you can use the placebo effect in your own life. So, what is the placebo effect exactly? Well, whenever they're doing drug trials, when there's a new drug that's coming out, what they will do is they will get a group of people, and they will give group A the new drug to see how it works on them. So, if they have some sort of heart issue, or let's just say they have blood pressure issue, right, they'll give them this new amazing, whatever it is, blood pressure medication. And then, for another group, they will tell them that they are getting the blood pressure medication, but they won't actually get anything. What it is, is they'll give them these little pills that are just made out of sugar. So, they give them sugar pills, and then they test group A, which have the medication, versus group B, that have literally just sugar pills. And here's what's crazy, is this is in all medical trials. All medical trials use the placebo effect as a control. And what they find is that only about 10% of new drugs that go out into the world work better than the placebo effect. Let me say that again. 10% of new drugs that hit the market, only 10% of them work better than a sugar pill in somebody thinking that this pill is going to cure them, and the pill actually does cure them. So, what are we getting at? It's not the sugar that cures somebody. What is it? It's the thought behind it of, I am taking something that's curing me, and the mind cures the body. Is that not f***ing mind blowing to anybody else? And nobody talks about how the mind is literally healing the body. So, let's talk a little bit deeper about it. Let's get some statistics in there. So, one-third of all medical healings is the placebo effect. That means 33% of all medical healings they actually think comes from the placebo effect. Somebody thinking their way into healing. One-third of them. Once again, as I said, 10% of the pills that come out into the market actually do better than the placebo effect, which means that 90% of the time, your brain will heal you better than taking some medication that comes from some company. So, as we dive deeper into it, what we realize is that the thought of I'm being cured cures somebody. So then you dive deeper into it and you go, damn, if I can heal myself with my thoughts, what else can I do with my thoughts? And why do we not pay more attention to this? It has nothing to do with the pill. It has nothing to do with their mind. And placebo has been shown to cause, this is from an actual clinical study, placebo has been shown to cause measurable change in blood pressure, heart rate, and pain-releasing chemicals like endorphins. It affects the cardiovascular system, the endocrine system, digestive system, immune system, and respiratory system. It, when they say it, that's what's crazy about it, is it's not an actual thing.   Why is nobody talking about this? This makes no sense to me because people are healing themselves with their mind. How incredible is that? And nobody talks about this. There's all of these people that are healing themselves with their mind, and we're just going, oh yeah, that's the placebo effect. Oh yeah, I'm a doctor, that's the placebo effect. Now, I'm not trying to knock on doctors, people that are trying to help the people get better, but nobody talks about how incredible this is. Let me say this again, one-third of all medical healings. So at its simplest form, we are thinking that we are cured. And through thinking that we are cured, we are actually curing. But then you start to think to yourself, huh? That's interesting. If I can heal myself with my mind, is the opposite of that true? Can I make myself sick with my mind? And the answer is, you got it. Yes, it's called the no-cebo effect. You can make yourself sick with your own thoughts. With all of the stuff that's happening in the world right now, this is pretty damn important to talk about, isn't it?   Say that again, your thoughts of what you are fearing is making you more susceptible to getting the thing that you're actually afraid of getting.  I won't talk about this thing. But if we're possibly getting sick from it, and I'm worried about getting sick from it, doesn't that mean that I'm lowering my immune system to then actually possibly be more likely to get that thing? It does. So it's called the nocebo. And we all know someone who's always sick, right? You know someone who's always... I mean, they're like the WebMD doctor, right? They're like, oh my gosh, my elbow hurts. And they're like, what is wrong with me? Oh my god, I have elbow cancer, right? Like elbow cancer doesn't exist. But they always think like they have something. And then what happens? They end up having all of these different issues. They're always sick. They're not the doctor. They always have to go get something with them. They're literally causing their sickness. It happens all the time. And people do this and they don't realize it. So what happens is sometimes someone goes to a doctor. They're perfectly healthy. You know, maybe they get sick.  And then they think I'm sick. I'm sick. I'm sick. And it continues to keep going and going and going.   Why? Because they won't get off of the thought of there's something wrong with me and I am always sick. Their thoughts are creating a sickness inside of their body. We all know someone like this. You might be the person who's like this. So obviously with all of the stuff that's happening in the world right now, this is pretty important, isn't it? For us to realize, oh my God, so if I'm thinking that I'm healthy, if I'm thinking that there is no way that I'm going to get sick, I am actually building up my immune system and all systems in my brain and body to help me fight off whatever might be out there in the world. But if I am sitting in a state of fear and I'm constantly watching the news and I'm constantly hearing about this bad thing and this bad thing and this bad thing and this bad thing, I'm putting myself into a negative state. I'm putting myself into a fearful state.  Hey, if you're enjoying this video, do me a favor and hit that like button down below. It helps with the YouTube algorithm so that more people can see this message because it helps us get it out organically. So hit that like button and I appreciate you. So let's dive into this.  If your mind can literally make you healthier or make you sicker, then what else can it do for us? This is a pretty interesting question. Maybe we should dive into it and start to think about it. If it can make us healthy and if it can make us sick, that means that it can literally create whatever it is that we want to in this world. What does it mean? The world is literally your playground. I want you to remember this.  You can either decide to play, or you can either decide to be afraid of what could possibly happen. Your mind is the one that's in charge of that playground. So, the problem is, most people don't act like they're in charge. Most people act like, you know, life is just a set of circumstances that are coming at them, and they're just constantly trying to dodge them and not get smacked in the face. You know what, the visual that comes into my head, one of my favorite videos, or favorite things to do is there's an Instagram called Kids Getting Hurt that I follow.   It's like this big pad, it's softed, bat basically, and kids are trying to dodge this bat, and then eventually it hits them. That's basically what people are living their life like. They're just trying to dodge all of the set of circumstances that life is quote unquote throwing at them, and they're not actually taking control of it and trying to stop that and take control of the actual thing that's spinning around with the padding on it, right? They don't think that they're creating the reality. What they think is that they're just trying to put out fires. They're just dealing with sets of circumstances that come at that, but if you can go, okay, I'm gonna step into a place of power. I'm gonna realize that I'm creating my reality. And I'm creating my reality one thought at a time.  If you think that you're going to be healthy, you're going to be healthy. If you think that you are broken, then you are broken. If you think that you are healed, then you are healed. If you think that you're going to be successful with every single cell in your body, all 50 trillion of them, them, you will eventually get to success. If you think, I know that I am going to find ultimate peace in my life and joy and happiness and love, and you believe it with all 50 trillion cells in your body, then you will eventually do it. You will. And you have to realize when you look into the mirror, you are looking not, when I look in the mirror, I don't see Rob dial. What I see is a collective of 50 trillion cells that make up Rob dial. And there is one central voice behind those 50 trillion cells telling it, what to do? What is it? My thoughts, my consciousness. And I'm trying to tap in and go, okay, let me see if there's a possibility that I can control these things. I realize it sounds out there. It sounds crazy. But then when you start to really think about it and you hear about this placebo effect to go, oh, this might actually be true. It's showing a clinical trial. So it's true. There's statistics. There's thousands of papers on this thing. Maybe it actually is true. Maybe it does exist. Maybe whatever I think I am, I am. That's interesting.  So how do we change our body? We change our thoughts about our body. How do we change our lives? We change our thoughts about our lives. How do we change our circumstances? We change our thoughts about our circumstances. How do we change every single aspect of everything that's going on in our lives? We change our thoughts around it. If you can sit there and look at somebody who is able to cure cardiovascular issues through their mind, clearly the mind is powerful.  We've heard the stories about it. We've also heard people that are just like, I'm not giving up. And they're given 30 days and they live for another seven years or they just completely cure themselves. What's the difference? The internal voice. I have a really good friend who, who, uh, who battled cancer a few years ago and he had a 95% chance of dying. Say that again, 95% chance of dying. He had a 5% success rate. That's the statistics across every, it's a, the only males can get this, uh, cancer. It's not statistically cancer, but it's another type of cancer only males get. And he had a 5% chance of, of living. And I said, what do you think? What do you, what do you think made you live? He said, what made me live was that I meditated every single morning and tried to get the central voice inside of me to know that I am not going to die from this. I am not going to give up no matter how hard it seems. He has a wife and two young children and he is like, I am not going to leave the planet. It's not happening. This cancer is not going to take me out. I'm going to fricking succeed. What happened? He ended up beating it. It doesn't exist in his body anymore. Did he go through some hell?  He went to the doctor. Last time I saw him, the doctor actually called him and said, Hey, there is, we don't see anything inside of your body that shows that you have cancer anymore. And he says, what did he do? As soon as he found out he had it, he made the decision he was going to beat it and he put every ounce of energy. He said, my full-time job went from my full-time job to, my full-time job is healing from this. And I'm going to make sure that it happens.  Maybe we can try to fix it with our thoughts, maybe showing that one third of medical healing has come from the placebo effect. We can actually heal ourselves. In worst case scenario, it's going to make it a whole hell of a lot better if we're believing and putting every ounce of energy into healing and getting better versus every ounce of energy into worrying about how sick we are or worrying about what's wrong in our life or worrying about these relationships that aren't going the right way. If we decide I'm going to take full ownership, full control of my life, my life is going to change. It's crazy. It's crazy. Nobody talks about it, but one third of all the medical healings come from people healing themselves with their mind, but then also the other side of this other side of the fence is the no-cebo. People make themselves more sick by what they're thinking.  Are you the type of person that when something comes up, when circumstances that aren't the way that you want to come up, are you the type of person that's like, Oh man, what was me? Poor me. Victim mentality. Look, it's happening to me again. It always happens to me or I'm always broke or I'm always losing money or this is always happening to me. Are you that type of person or are you the type of person? It's like, okay, challenge is here. Challenge accepted. I'm going to figure out, I'm going to do everything that I possibly can to get past this challenge. And I'm not going to not succeed. I'm going to figure out a way to do it. Which person are you? Because your mind, in my opinion, is the most powerful thing in the entire universe. But the real question is, are you using your mind against you?  You can literally create heaven on earth or you can create hell on earth. And all of those are created through your thoughts. So I want you to think about that and I want to leave you with this one question. If you can create anything that you want to in this world and you're fully 100% in control of it, what do you want to create? I want to fully allow myself to be in this moment because there is a chance that one day it's going to be gone.


You just make a couple of quick changes and then you can drink bigger. I didn't get to edit itself, I found that we also see, so why blog and why decentralized blogs? Basically, if you already know your blogs, you know that you're working with a lot of creative systems from some of your clicking logs, from the final devices, from the next, from those devices, so you're working with so many of those. And the other reason why this blog is using all of us, the open blog, is because it's a security risk. And the two items for that is that blog is based on structure, for example, and the other issue is that alerts are not generated in a way that initiates a response from security teams. And that's also in relation to the structure. I read that it's un-structured and un-structured log. So the top view, for example, of an un-structured log message. The first part is structured and the part involved is unstructured. I think that the data is in that structure. But the issue here is that the un-structured part is not structured. So, for example, we can't really do a process with, say, the same several logs. You might be looking at that type of log from there, which is un-structured. And here, we set that in several parts of the structure. So what we do then is always that we set data from different sources. So engines, what would it be? Or on the whole screen, what would it be? We've got smart logs and we've also got sources to parse them. And so you leverage to get the user data in the source, and then also you put it in different situations. So both are possible. So here's an example. So I'll have a few of the original examples. I can access them online again and you can download the application and try it. So this one here is not a rule. But the un-structured log sample there, which is un-structured, you can just hand it up and make it un-structured to two logs. There's one, there's one, there's one. And then you'll eventually have to do something that's more un-structured. So un-structured. So those are the un-structured log samples. I'll show you in a moment.


Double place It's ogre still at half-elf. It's over still at half-elf.  Hey guys. Oh, there you go. Yeah, I got bubble Waple down. Okay, let's go. I'm gonna have an all zinc. I need like one more orb. You're ready Everything everything you guys that everything you guys that I can now be back. Yeah, I did too. Oh My god, I got a gun. Oh my god.

I'm a professor in the Graduate School of Education and Information Studies at UCLA, also the director of the Center for the Transformation of Schools. Today I talked about the huge challenge of inequality and how it affects education and impacts the health of children and what we can do to address it. We have lots of examples of schools that do manage to compensate for the effects of poverty on children and what we need to do is learn from those examples so we can create more schools that can meet the needs of children and break the cycle of poverty.


start my YouTube channel from scratch. Welcome back to my channel guys, it's your girl Coco Styles and on this channel we talk about beauty, fashion, lifestyle and styling. So today is gonna be a different video and this is gonna be about my channel changes and updates. This is gonna be like a transparency video and I've been wanting to do this for a while and last night I had a nice long talk with myself, looking at my analytics, just reviewing things that I've been posting and sharing on all of my platforms as well as my personal website for my blog. I'm gonna be changing some things solely based off of my analytics, all right? So basically I did some research, I looked at my analytics. It seems as though I have been posting at times where a lot of my subscribers are not gone. Now let me first start off by saying I personally feel like I don't mind the slow growth, it does not bother me at all. I feel like it's a really good way to really start to hone in on who's actually like riding out from me from the beginning because I can tell by names and stuff. But I looked at my analytics and basically I've been posting at times that weren't beneficial to my channel. I'm looking at my views, they're low. So I'm just like, okay, sometimes you have to have a talk with yourself about your content being good or bad. So I said to myself, Sinaya, because that's my real name, what do you think you can do better for your audience? As a tall girl, my goal is to really get the message out to tall women that I shop regular brands, I do not shop tall girl brands. It's not something that I ever did. So I know for me, that is the message that I want to get out to the girlies who are my height and a tad bit shorter who are considered tall. Like you don't have to shop tall girl brands. So that's my message. How do we make tall girl brands work for us? And how do we still be stylish? How do we always look put together without really following the trends and stuff because we can't? So that's my message. I also know that for me, health is like really big as far as like eating and just taking care of myself.  So for me, that's something that I do want to be transparent about, but vlogs may not be it for me right now. So I'm going to have to hold on that and just start pushing out content that I feel will be beneficial to you guys. So I'm going to get into the things that I'm going to be changing that you're going to be seeing. And the first thing is the time. So, oh gosh. I've been posting Wednesdays and Sundays for the past three years. Sometimes I get really great views, but lately the views have been low. So I'm really trying to figure out is it the time I'm posting? Is it the content? Again, sometimes you just have to say to yourself, my content is trash or I'm doing something wrong and it is just what it is. So looking at the analytics, it's saying that Mondays will be a good day, Thursdays and Saturdays.  Looking at the analytics, those are the times, well, those are the days. And as far as the times, they vary, but I'm seeing a pattern which is odd because it's the time that people should be working. So in my head, well, they're working, but they're obviously online. So I don't know if it's that a lot of people are working from home now and they have time to go on YouTube, but I'm gonna play around with the times. So I am gonna start posting on, I said Saturdays and Mondays, I just have to adjust something in my day to day life so that I'm not rushing and I'm putting out great content. I'm gonna do my best to do more community tabs and more short that way. You guys are kind of getting into my world. Let me say this, a lot of people say, oh, just be yourself on YouTube. It is not that easy. And the reason why it's not easy, for those of us who have like nine or five jobs, you don't really want to like, I'm not gonna say get crazy online, but you don't wanna do things where it's going to jeopardize certain things, your image and stuff.  However, personality wise, because you're in like a corporate setting so much, it's really hard to bring your regular side out. Cause literally as soon as I get off of work, I'm just like, I'm Sonaya, okay? That's my birth name, guys. So I'm Sonaya when I get off of my regular job. My friends are like, they know who I am and all that good stuff. My first thing I'm changing is the time. And the time will be Mondays at, I said three. All right, I just had to make an executive decision. Initially I was gonna do three and seven, but I'm actually gonna keep it still early in the day, basing it off of the analytics. And I'm gonna do two o'clock on Monday and two o'clock on Saturday. Now, when you read online, it tells you that a good time is between nine and 11, which kind of makes sense, right? Because you're like, everybody's home. Two o'clock is like a weird hour, like on a Saturday, but some people are still actually home. So I'm looking at my analytics. If I have to change it, I'll just change it, but I'm gonna try it out. So it'll be two o'clock on Mondays now and two o'clock on Saturdays. That way it gives me time to like really hone in on what I'm trying to push out for you guys. So that's the first thing that is the time. So that's the first change you guys are gonna see on my channel. The second change you're going to see is you're gonna see, for those of you guys who go on through a computer, and I think you can actually see it when you're on your actual iPhone or your Android or whatever, your cell phone, I'm reorganizing my playlist. That way it's a little bit more structured for the folks who are coming in new and they don't really know what my channel is about because I did switch around a couple of times because I wanna make sure this is like an easy process, not easy as far as editing and stuff like that, but just like a nice flow for me, especially with the things that go on in my day-to-day life. So I'm gonna have really nice detailed playlist for you guys, and I'm gonna start out with hauls and try-ons, okay? So those are the things that I get in new pretty much, trying on the items, showing you ladies what I got as a tall girl. Just anything new, it can be perfume, any type of haul that you can think of is gonna be in that section for you guys to kind of see what I got going on, from bags to shoes to whatever it is that I could actually wear on my body accessories. That's gonna be in one particular playlist. The other one is going to be a tall girl series, and I kept that a little bit separate. You may see some of the videos in both. The reason why I did a tall girl series because I have a ton of videos from like three years ago where I kind of went into tall girl struggles and stuff, and went through like a whole series. And I even went into shopping as a tall girl type of thing, and it has like, I don't know, it's specific with the word tall. So if someone comes to my page or my channel and they are looking for that, they're gonna be able to see that. But some of those videos will actually be inside of the haul and try-on video as well. So I hope that helps, but those of you ladies who are tall, who don't really know that I am tall, that you will have those videos there for you to look at when you are ready to kind of like dive in and binge watch. That's the second thing that's gonna be changing on my channel. I'm gonna have different playlists. So it's gonna be like a haul and try-on. It's going to be a tall girl series. It's gonna be like a tips and tips and tips and wardrobe must-haves one. Those are like a little bit more structured videos. They're all kind of structured with the exception of the blog. But you'll see all of those in one area. Then you'll see things like food or healthy foods and things like that. So that's gonna be me buying groceries and stuff like that. For those of you guys, I'm plant-based when I told y'all I ate a piece of salmon the other day. And I'll tell y'all about that later. So you'll see stuff like that. And then you also have a section in there for corporate style tips. Those videos was when I was trying to incorporate my actual style services, which I don't really want to do. But those videos are gonna stay there for the girls who are starting work. And they don't want to, I guess I would say, do dress the wrong way in an office. It sounds crazy, but trust and believe me, the girl is doing.  It'll be a lot more easy to read for you guys and hopefully that helps, guys. And hopefully it helps the folks coming in new and who are ready to subscribe. And if you cannot subscribe, if you like this video, make sure you are subscribing below to the channel. Let's get this going, guys. So the other thing is you are going to see a lot more calls and try-ons. And you're also going to see a lot more of just fashion in general. I think I have taken a step back from it. And I think it had a lot to do with just having a ton of stuff on my mind where it came to my outside life, particularly my job.  Like whatever happens happens. And I like I really don't care anymore. My focus is really like making sure that I get this content out to you guys. That's great and that you guys absolutely love. So if you guys have anything that you wanna see on my channel, please let me know. I know there was a young lady who said she wanted to see some cooking stuff. I did not forget. It's so dark downstairs that when I am cooking, like the lighting is just not good. So I'm still trying to figure out what I can put on my actual camera to give you some really great cooking videos on things that I actually eat. It's not a ton because I still eat a lot of alkaline stuff from Dr. Sabi's list. But I did incorporate more vegetables that he didn't have on his list. Why do I wanna get into more fashion stuff? Because I want to get to those girls who want to shop like you don't wanna shop trends all the time. You wanna still be able to look nice. This is gonna be the channel for you because I am going to give it to you guys. So let's get into the other thing that I wanna actually start doing is collabing with some of the other YouTubers. I wanna start collabing with some of the girls even if it's not someone that I already met, someone that may come across my video that's tall. We can definitely collab. You do not have to live in Atlanta. You can live wherever we can do some sort of collab and get this going on for us tall ladies. Because listen, the moment I get a chance to get to these brands so they can start getting to us, I will. So that's what you're gonna start seeing. And back to the playlist. I'm gonna have a playlist for skincare and stuff like that. So you're not gonna have to go through all of my videos trying to figure out where the stuff is. So you'll see that also in a separate playlist as well as far as skincare products, beauty products, things like that. So hopefully that does help you guys when you are maneuvering through my page, when you are maneuvering through my channel, trying to watch my videos when you are free and have time to do it. So recap, we're gonna have a new time which is gonna be starting. First Saturday video will be next week Saturday, okay? This video today is gonna be going up on Sunday. So my first Saturday video will be next week. My first Monday video will be the following week. So I'm still gonna post Sunday for this week. And then Monday, I'm not going to post. I'm gonna post on Wednesday my normal time. If I do not post a video, it is solely because I'm trying to get everything together but you guys will know that before that happens. The other thing is my playlist. They're gonna be a lot more organized for you to actually roll through all the videos when you have time to kind of see what is actually on my channel. The third thing is I'm gonna be doing a lot more halls and tryouts for you guys as a tall woman because the struggle is real. And the fourth thing is I am going to try my best to collab and reach out to some of the girls online. Usually I am very reserved but I'm gonna have to do this if I wanna grow on YouTube and take my channel to the next level and bring you guys along with me. So that is a recap of everything that I'm gonna be changing on my channel and I hope you guys stick around for it. If you guys have any suggestions, make sure you are putting that in the comments so I can see them. If you have questions about my YouTube channel, my Instagram channel, my TikTok or whatever, let me know. Any questions about shopping tips for tall women, definitely let me know guys. I am here for it, here for the constructive criticism as well. Anything that you would like to say, be respectful in the comments and we are golden.  I do not want to give up on YouTube. I told you guys I did monetize, finally got my first check. I didn't do a separate videos because I'm still trying to do a bunch of stuff but I do wanna go through this stuff because it wasn't like everybody else's story. Everybody's story is completely different but I'm very appreciative of what I got. I know that it does take some work. Some people can blow up overnight. Some people don't. But I'm gonna tell you this, I'm gonna work hard until I get to where I want my channel to be and have the community that I wanna build and work with the people that I wanna work with guys. So thank you guys for tuning in. Make sure you are subscribing to the channel again guys. If you like videos like this, please comment below and if you stay to the end of this video, please comment Coco we see you and don't forget to follow me on Instagram at Coco Styles NYC and Coco Styles NY. And my personal style blog, Coco Styles NYC. You guys know I run a tall girl blog where it has tips and tricks for tall women, style hacks, things that we struggle with. And these tips are not things that they're only for tall women. Anybody could actually use these tips. They are things where there are things on there as far as how to create a capsule wardrobe, wardrobe essentials, things like that. So it's not specifically pushing out the average height of girls but it is geared towards tall women. But thank you guys for tuning in. I will catch you guys in the next one. Bye guys.
