What is a lightworker? You hear this term thrown around all the time on social media,
and you hear me mention it in all my videos. But, what does it really mean? In this video
I’ll break it down for you and help you figure out if you, are indeed are a lightworker.
I’m George Lizos and I empower lightworkers with tools and guidance to find, follow, and
fulfil their life purpose. If you’re ready to follow yours be sure to subscribe to my
channel for more videos like this. In her book, Light is the New Black, Rebecca
Campbell defines a lightworker as “Someone who wholeheartedly makes the decision to make
the world a brighter place by being in it.” Although there are lightworkers from all walks
of life, the kind of lightworker you probably are, and the lightworkers I’m most passionate
to work with, are lightworkers within the spiritual community: healers, intuitives,
spiritual teachers and entrepreneurs who want to make the world a brighter place through
their spiritual work. If this is you, then be sure to check out my new book Lightworkers
Gotta Work, that’ll teach you how to hone in on your life purpose, and empower you with
tools to follow and fulfil it. It’s available to order on Amazon and all online retailers.
I’ll pop the link for it in the description below so you can check it out.
I also have an entire YouTube video series, teaching about lightworkers, their purpose,
and characteristics, so I’ll pop the playlist for that in the description below so you can
check it out, too Over their souls’ journeys, lightworkers
have incarnated as witches, healers, shamans, wise ones, mystics and spiritual seekers of
all sorts. They have been burned at the stake, crucified for their beliefs, persecuted for
practising their magic and shamed for owning their light and speaking their truth. Yet,
lifetime after lifetime, these brave souls have chosen to be reborn from the ashes, recuperate
their strengths and come back time and time again, persisting and perfecting their skills
and shining their light. As stated in the definition of the term, the
collective purpose of lightworkers is to make the world a brighter place; but really what
does that even mean? And, how do we go about doing so? The term lightworker and the purpose
of lightworkers are both very vague, which leaves many lightworkers resonating with the
term, feeling the responsibility it holds, but not knowing how to go about being that.
So, when I often ask lightworkers how they work their light, I hear things like “I
meditate to change the vibration of the world” or “I envision people surrounded by light”.
And, whereas there’s definitely value in doing all that, is it enough to create real,
palpable change in the world? The way I see it, these aforementioned actions
are more about nurturing our light rather than working it. The tagline of my book ‘Lightworkers
Gotta Work’ is that “the world won’t change sitting in meditation pillows all day
long”, because yes meditation is SO important in nurturing our light, but what’s equally
important is the inspired action we take as a result of our meditation practice. This
is what lightwork is all about. To help you understand more deeply what working
your light means, let’s deconstruct the term lightwork: Light embodies the Divine
Feminine. It’s your ability to receive inspiration from Source and enjoy the creative qualities
of resting, retreating and nurturing yourself, while basking in the knowingness of the power
of Source to create worlds. Work embodies the Divine Masculine. It’s your ability
to form desires, take action, move forward, embark on new projects, create change, take
risks, and use your light in practical ways to bring desires into physical manifestation.
When you combine light and work, you create magic; the action you take is inspired and
it comes forth with purpose. As a result, it creates positive change easily and effortlessly.
In essence, working your light has less to do with being idle and more to do with taking
physical action towards the vision you hold in your heart and mind. Meditating, visualising
and shielding are all powerful ways of nurturing light and feminine energy, and they’re essential
aspects of your path. However, these activities have little to do with working your light.
Simply put, the world isn’t going to change by you knowing and affirming your light. The
physical world we live in can only change through equally physical action steps. Sometimes,
lightworkers and spiritual seekers forget that we’re not just love and light; we’re
love and light expressed in physical form. If we were just meant to be love and light,
we wouldn’t have come forth into this physical time‐space reality. We chose to incarnate
in a physical way so that we can do something with the love and light. We chose to come
forth so that we can use the diverse, intricate, physical tools and processes that we’ve
created in our world, to create physical change. This is your wake‐up call, lightworker.
You’re called to not just rise up, but to rise up and do something about it. If you
like what you’re hearing and you feel the call to light up and take action, then I know
you’ll love my new book Lightworkers Gotta Work. It’s the ultimate manual to following
your purpose and creating change in the world. In the book, you’ll get to define your life
purpose in specific terms, and then learn powerful tools, exercises, processes, rituals,
and meditations, to both nurture and work your light. My aim with writing this book
was to create a practical manual that lightworkers can use to see their purpose to fulfilment,
from the moment they discover it, to the moment they follow it to create positive change in
the world. Be sure to click the link in the description to check out all the details and

light more effectively are online communities of likeminded people who can support you on
your path. My online Facebook Group community Your Spiritual Toolkit is full of trainings,
prompts, and guidance from others and myself, to guide you on your path. If you feel called
to join us, I’d love to see you there.
