In my lexicon the term "reality" can only ever describe the immutable Self, unchanging and unchangeable. Anything that can be changed is not reality, but rather some experience foisted by something we might call a mind, which is responsible for all "physical" phenomena, including "parallel universes". All of the change that a mind can imagine has been thought of already, and recorded , played out in many universes of thought. People are extensions of the mind that made the changes to the Self, and seem to still possess some power to make changes, sometimes over physical phenomena. But I am not so optimistic about that and suggest that the apparent initial power to make changes has been spent (squandered) and the only choice any extended node of the changing-mind (any person) can make is to return to reality as the Self. In so doing, may jump from one parallel universe to next in increasingly better circumstances until finally arriving back at the start of a long fruitless journey of concepts, satisfied with the Self and only that.
