Dain Heer – Being You, Changing the World
Dr. Heer is the author of 8 books on the topics of embodiment, healing, money and relationships. His latest book, Being You, Changing the World, was published in June 2011. Phoebe Tonkin and I were so excited to have the opportunity to interview this pioneer of the Conscious Living world. Enjoy!
Tez: What does happiness mean to you?
Dain: Happiness is a sense of exuberance. It’s having a sense of the possibilities you can create, and the awareness that you can change what it is you want to change in life. It’s also a sense of exuberance at being alive, and I think the older we get, the more we seem to lose it even though we should be able to increase it.
Tez: Tell me about the power of our thoughts.
Dain: The difficulty is that we give far too much power to thoughts rather than our awareness; rather than our sense of what is possible. 98% of your thoughts, feelings and emotions don’t actually belong to you; you’re picking them up from the people around you like a big psychic radio receiver. Most people around us are thinking thoughts about what’s impossible, and we are picking it up, we give that power over what is possible. If, instead of relying on the heavy thoughts that determine most people’s lives we ask “who does this belong to?” when you have a heavy thought, emotion or judgment. If it lightens up, then the thought, emotion or judgment is not yours. We have power that goes well beyond thought into the awareness of what’s actually possible.
