I've learned to allow and love my laziness! After suffering for years with unnecessary panic and guilt, I now 'lean in' to my laziness because I know and trust myself. As my personal history shows, my lethargy or exhaustion eventually passes and my engines rev back up and my work gets done. I know this. I trust this. This trust helps me 'lean in' to the laziness and give my self, guilt-free the moment or hour or day to recharge and practice just being.
With my love and gratitude for our Readings,

Reading this piece (but sipping coffee :)) brought me right to the minutia of my life with gratitude for every tiny detail, every breath, each beat of my heart. For every heart beat of my precious family, individually and collectively. For every dirty dish I am so blessed to wash. For every letter of this keyboard I am so fortunate to press. And for every eye (and ear!) that gets to read this post, I am grateful. And for every soul in between us, I pray. I pray and invite them all to join us in this place. Right here. Right now. Just for this moment. With this reading. With love, for all of creation. Liz
I struggled to grasp this Reading and had to read several times. But as walked away from the recording studio, I found myself asking, "what is the personality of this hour, this moment? How can I be in it, contribute to it, change it for the better, for someone else's life?" I will go and do that now. With love. Liz
With the belief that we are all one, comes my personal responsibility to keep my thoughts, speech and actions clean and in alignment with their highest purpose. As in this beautiful passage, when I reflect on the impact my well-being has on the rest of humanity, I am so inspired to press on and elevate my inner work. With my thanks and love. Liz
