If you’ve been around me and Life Writers for more than a minute, you’ve heard me talk about my mentor and now dear friend, Dr. Lezlie Laws.
In 1992, when I dipped my toe back into writing after fifteen years of giving up putting words to paper, Lezlie was my brilliant professor who met me where I was, helped me believe I could write, and gave me the confidence to try again.
She is who I try to emulate whenever I teach.
In this master class, Lezlie talks about the innate creativity we all have, the six components needed to express ourselves clearly, and how a contemplation practice or meditation practice can revolutionize our work. She also defines meditation and how we can use it in our writing.
Lezlie has been a lifelong practitioner of meditation and yoga and is a certified instructor who teaches at Orlando Insight Meditation Group. She created the TIA Journal (Thank-Intend-Ask), which helps us live in states of gratitude, intention, and asking.
She has also taught two previous master classes for Life Writers. You can watch the replays of Focus and Creativity Meditation and Meditation to Enhance Creativity.
I’ve had the pleasure of publishing a couple of other books for her–Twelve Doors: Writing for Pleasure, Self-Expression, and Insight and the TIA Journal (Thank-Intend-Ask) that are definitely worth a look.
