I think it's better that people actually are saying what they feel. Especially, people are saying, I'm not heard. I don't have a voice in America.

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.

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
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
To me the purpose of life is to enjoy it! It's to enjoy the gift, and to make sure that other people have an opportunity to enjoy the gift.

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.

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.

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
We need to claim our power for something beautiful, something harmonious and something globally healthy.
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
The soul is the river of energy that animates who we are.
Elizabeth Lesser
I know that if we allow ourselves into the gridlock of tribalism, we're in trouble.
Elizabeth Lesser
Agree to these ground rules: Be curious, conversational and real. Don't persuade or interrupt. Listen, listen, listen.
Elizabeth Lesser
I think the gender story will become less fraught with hard edges - and not that we'll have androgyny, but that men and women will move more fluidly into each other's domains.
Elizabeth Lesser
I'm not naive. I know how hard it is to get along.
Elizabeth Lesser
If you're interested in the door to the heavens opening, start with the door to your own secret self.
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
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
Beautiful quality that women have, which is we like to get together and gab. It's time to elevate that aspect of being a woman.
Elizabeth Lesser
I can only do what I do with a spirit of humor, and faith and give the controls over to something else.

I've realized that aging is the younger cousin of dying. ... How much time do I have left? We become aware that we're on the downside of the mountain, coasting toward our final days.
