More quotes by Elizabeth Lesser
Many women hear the word feminine and feel like it's a noose around their neck. Don't hold me to a mode of behavior because I'm a woman and you think this is how a woman should act, kind of thing.
Elizabeth Lesser
One does not practice meditation to become a great meditator. We meditate to wake up and live, to become skilled at the art of living.
Elizabeth Lesser
Even if your difficult time comes at you out of the blue - like cancer - even those times, opens your heart to the magic and power of life, and gives you this inner commitment to live every moment.
Elizabeth Lesser
I'm not naive. I know how hard it is to get along.
Elizabeth Lesser
I love this life, because I am a human being and it sure would be nice, I think, to preserve it. But I don't even know if that's true, because God's mind is huge, and I don't really know what he's thinking.I can only do what I do with a spirit of humor, and faith and give the controls over to something else.
Elizabeth Lesser
It's not always about survival, this life we are given it's usually so much easier than that. It's about trusting the eternal life force that is flowing within us-letting that force lead the way through all of the inevitable changes we will face across the span of our time here on Earth.
Elizabeth Lesser
I hope we have learned throughout centuries of revolution and reaction that it's really a shift in consciousness that we need. And I think there is a shift in consciousness among our human species. I think the human species is evolving, spiritually.
Elizabeth Lesser
First we forgive ourselves, then we forgive others and life itself.
Elizabeth Lesser
Life is about change, it never stops, it's moving and it's moving this human body inexorably towards its demise.
Elizabeth Lesser
Read any of the top-selling business books, all of them talk about moving away from a top down manner of leading to a more inclusive one. It's not happening over night, but if you read the winds of change in most of the democracies in the world we are moving toward shared levels of power.
Elizabeth Lesser
Life's always changing. We always are being called to adapt.
Elizabeth Lesser
Grief is good...it is a sign of how well we have loved.
Elizabeth Lesser
What will matter is the good we did, not the good we expected others to do.
Elizabeth Lesser
Whatever is happening, whatever is changing, whatever is going or not going according to my plans - I release my hold on all of it. I leave behind who I think I am, who I want to be, what I want the world to be. I come home to the great peace of the present moment.
Elizabeth Lesser
If family and society tell you its unfeminine, not really womanly, to be aggressive, to speak up, to have strong opinions, to take up space, then women won't trust their own voice, because to be heard and to be influential, you've got to have a way to sing out with passion and love and self-trust - to sing out your song for everyone to hear.
Elizabeth Lesser
Talking to each other instead of talking about each other is not some kind of nicey-nice (ph) idea. It's the difference between societies falling apart and societies getting something wonderful done.
Elizabeth Lesser
When we slow down, quiet the mind, and allow ourselves to feel hungry for something that we do not understand, we are dipping into the abundant well of spiritual longing.
Elizabeth Lesser
First we love within, then we love the world.
Elizabeth Lesser
Agree to these ground rules: Be curious, conversational and real. Don't persuade or interrupt. Listen, listen, listen.
Elizabeth Lesser
If you have fathered a child, if you have given birth, if sex is a source of healthy pleasure, thank your pelvis and your reproductive organs for allowing you to feel the creative rhythms of life.
