get started you know what we do on a dr joy show we take it down with three deep breaths are you ready inhale exhale in hand exhale last one in him exhale how do you feel i know i feel great let's get right to it marina welcome to the dr joy show  resuscitating the american dream first of all i want you to tell me and my view is a little bit about you well i was born in iran my parents are half german i moved to paris i studied there and then to vancouver canada and finally i made it to new york because that was always my dream i knew i would live in new york and that's what i did and i got married and i started my own business which was very successful until it was not because i had to start something else but what was the book really what was your business it was i was in healthcare i provided nurses in new york in new jersey on a p in home care so both you would think that that would flourish because of things changed and maybe it was divine path that i had to do something else that nothing was going to work anymore and i have to shift my attention to something maybe bigger and that's what i have done so how are you guided to write dream a better dream it took me years it took me years to come what i call my spiritual closet i was very much closed up and i wouldn't speak about it because that was my business and i was a little bit embarrassed about it about my different beliefs seriously it took me t get to say ok i believe in life after death i believe in the spirit and i believe in how we can change life by thinking differently and it was time to write about it and i decided th donald trump was elected i said this is my calling card and it is not only that we speak and criticize his hitches and the divisiveness of his nature but we have to do something and for me it was fighting the book and becoming active in doing something that changes us from within wow or so i take it from there that you know a supporter of donald trump i call him forty five ok that's the five year well that's that's good that's a kind way yes that is a kind way will be respectful so is the american dream dead do you think it depends for whom it's really for some people the ten percent it's a great dream they just did much better because taxes were cut back again for them to say it's a good team right but for ninety percent of americans it is a tough dream i think i like to have health care insurance that is not denied when they get sick right and they want to have to children to do better than they are doing and the environment and job so that is what is concerning me today is that i'm not seeing that that trend is there and i think it's also that we are denying our future that possibility of the dream marina you can keep you can keep talking because i'm following you and i think the dream might have been lost a long time ago i think so i would say the way i look at it it started with president reagan when then when you don't go all the way back there it was think shift it right it was more for the very visit and the vest it would trickle down but it doesn't trickle down because it is rice feeling of not enough and it doesn't matter if you have billions  if you have two dollars it's the feeling of not enough and then that is there you need to take more and you're not giving it back if they were to be taxed higher it would go back into the government and would be in when i call it investing in the people in the future the children our environment because we cannot live without a proper environment we cannot hollow it out and not put something back so what do you think is going to happen in the future if we continue on this path i don't think it's a good path to be on and right think when you look back in history it has al some point something will tear and it will come to two ahead so what what's the answer in your mind what do we need to do what need to do is number one i think people need to vote no your number one number two people need to speak up and not to be in hiding and to be oh i can't do anything anyway not everybody can go into districts not everybody can demonstrate right but we can do something that starts with an instead of falling prey and victim to the negativity that is so abound we can change ourselves and send light into the dark situations so change this situation by putting light into it other than that we can we encourage people to pivot their thoughts weeks courage it takes courage as i did i came of that that closet it takes courage to speak and it also takes courage to say to somebody let's have respect i accept your opinion and i like that you have your opinion and you entitled to it but so do i because we have come to a place in america that the don't accept other people's opinion something nicely and kind of cool it but the thing is we should not lose our voices because that is our our way of expressing right that is true so how can people transform negativity in our society i know you said starting individually right it starts individually ok tell you how i think it works ok three steps first thing is you have to become aware of our thoughts most of the time if you have no idea what is penetrating our brain never thought so first step is become aware of your thoughts monitor them watch them see how negative or how positive hopefully they are but don't judge it no critique then you start seeing a pattern secondly you need to feel least that negativity you have to empty the vessel before you can put something better into it that's right let it go empty it out let it go say to the negative thoughts you don't serve me anymore get out so let it go and then what you do have you visualize of that the future you act is if you become it now you are it in the moment to fight now instead of wanting to be happy be happy in it's not an if  it is no if you are happy and then something good will happen right don't be joy and peace and harmony and it changes your field of energy and you sending that out so have to lead some people go on by the wayside as well right because don't you think that if you hang around positive people then you will be you will become part of or even more positive but on the contrary if you hang around with not so positive people you can assimilate to their way out of doubt absolutely yes yes it influences you so you say that th but you also mention in your book necessary call to action tell me more about that a call to action is the have to do something now action start first begins in the he is really your center of emotion you feeling right so it starts here and it moves up to you your mind your brain which is more ego based so good good more sion should come from the heart is it's more spent in years ahead will be more negative so be mindful of this could tell you that this is no good forget it don't listen to me then it goes through the mouth which from the mouth it becomes an action right so therefore once you speak it it will become an action and you have to take that action so thoughts feelings actions result result and then the results can either be good or not so good if they're not so good you tweak it being art it's not necessary that everything that we do is a perfect right but it doesn't mean that it's not going to get there it may mean that you have a little bit of tweaking to do and it's not a straight path that but you will get there if you follow truly if you follow your heart there so what do you think it will take to get the american dream back for most for most people i think it is again that we need to invest in our people our people are our future if you f the future if you think get the people they have in the future it's like a tunnel a funnel the rest to build it and it cannot work without the people it cannot work with sick people in the nation is sick that's our inventory that's our mean it seems as though the investments are only going to certain in certain areas right so who do we have to convince to kind of make it an even playing field i mean marina this is a huge that's a huge undertaking it's like curing was fixing world hunger don't you think it's very close to ok however there are countries that are doing a better job than america changing our thinking that it's all inclusive then be a failing our america so then how can we help the next generation south i think they need to start being school i think that would be a wonderful thing it's non denominational you don't need to believe in god either because it's not a requirement for medicare but meditation is something that makes you go within and find strength within it comes you down it has shown that it changes even how situation is it changes mental situations i think that's a good step to start with to introduce meditation and give it a mind should we do meditation right now can we do it for a second or of the five seconds or ten seconds you're doing your breathing yeah i do i do the reading all the time so hopefully you know the viewers will be able to get that but some people find it hard to meditate though merida is a practice that means letting your mind just go they're different they're different practices one is that you simply observe your thoughts in his brief go through your mind the other one is that you and trade on one single item so that you learn to focus and be still and the other one is really focus on the press and to become completely still to certain like transformational breath which brings you t highest states of consciousness and as highest states of conscience the more you do it the higher and higher you go the more you vs your vibration yes you do and you change your consciousness right and it becomes easier although i have to tell you there's some days i get it and some days i'm hopeless but i don't let it distract me because it's part of the course and every day is different about there's not every day beautiful the this very i just take it like that and go ok to more better dick there's different levels of perfect right there it is a level so you said meditation in schools do you have another example or idea i think it's the need to create a sense of unification been need to come together more i find it we're divided so divide yeah and it starts so early that that it's because people are different and it's the find it or i can't be like that or and is that barrier then we should really see how beautiful that we're all different so we want to embrace diversity yes i would say that is absolutely in sensual compassion a lot less heads in the social media and me need to get together more because that creates isolation merino we don't have we don't have that kind of time to talk about but i thought of social media what it does to a person because i mean it's i and i said this before me you on the joy of living radio show and i think we touched on social media and i think this social media is just a micro what you see on social media is a microcosm of one's life  right and i know forks that said you know what i'm going to get off because they feel some kind of way when there are meaning that if they're having a bad day ye and they go on social media and they see all these wonderful things that their friends are doing right not really knowing what's behind that curtain it makes them feel a certain kind of way so yes they did catch a level of envy and  it's it's in the universe this is very strong need of being to get it right a togetherness and then we are in separation as in building walls right the cannot survive the cannot survive and then we start closing our bed indoors the are separated and isolated which brings enormous amount of depression and it is the use of the young people have skyrocketing suicide incidences and so that's all deleted and it is to a large extent there is an intent behind social media and a smartphone and it was the internet for people to of course the more you're on the more profitable and that it is for the service but we have to find our own limits and also know that the human touch is goes a long long way it does and you touched on suicide just now and i did some research because i am going to do a show around that the depression it leads to suicide there's a guy that actually attempted to take his own life but he lived and so he's got a product out there but research is says that suicide is up every forty six seconds somewhere in the world somebody is taking their own lives so as an immigrant we're going to shift now from from the dark side to more of a padded aside but as an immigrant how did you find success and how do you define it because i think success merlin is invented is individually defined absolutely i want to hear your story my story was i had to is incredible of five i have to do with this i my husband we had a very difficult situation that is business and it fell on my shoulders and so it was either just living  gave something that helped people so i call it the shatter glass impact because it just wasn't with you you dropped it and it permeated a long long way beyond anything that you could ever see yes exactly i love that and so i thought that that was my kind of business which is this my book writing and my future coaching and my courses online but also do something for people to feel better and to be deathless and that's really important to me so you talk about when i i wanted to reiterate transforming negative to positive in our society but it only starts it starts individually it's starting with the children but also the parents need to be on board without a doubt ok if and the teachers and the should start this ourself because we cannot be cannot really see if the other people are better i will be better right it starts with us change our self and then leave or influence the people around us if it works great if not then that person might now it's not ready yet no judgment either and b move on so he can't be held back because somebody can't make it i write it not their time but whatever good b do for them it's not lost it's never lost but we have to be examples to our children and we have to also ha that family unity without that unity it's a lost cause the need that strength and support right right you know what you said a few times and i picked it up and i like it you said no judgment yet there should be hash tag no judgment zone period because when we remove judgement then we are more open to accepting others exactly then we're really embracing diversity right so what additional advice do you have for my viewers live your life enjoy every moment yesterday i was with a young girl and she was suffering self afflicted suffering because she felt she's not  enough you're good enough you are good enjoy your life be the best you can every moment change your thoughts to positive watch them change them and be an inspiration to others and as you change you will see the reaction in others around you and it's like a snowball it starts with the flick and it becomes bigger and bigger and bigger and we can make this a huge shift in collective consciousness and starting with every person so change your thoughts and i want to add because you're right changing your thoughts thoughts feelings actions results when you get up in the morning you have a decision either it's going to be a not so good they were it's going to be a good day but there's one thing that i say in the mirror as bad as i look every morning right i say marina check out what i say i say i am who i am and it's great to be me perfect i love it you know because of that when i say that yes then my day is love that yeah so where can we
