The act of embracing something, or a situation, by using it to empower yourself. To “lean into” something is to own it, to cast off disparagement. You move forward and deal with it with unhindered confidence, casting off concerns and cares.

Instead of letting a shortcoming hold you back, you find acceptance in the situation, perhaps even going as far as to pride yourself on it. “Leaning into it” may even imply doing more of the “thing” in question, or highlighting it, as a means to overpower it and have it no longer be deemed a weakness or unfortunate hangup.

The phrase may have risen itself from the physical act of bracing yourself against an impacting force, in the same way a person may tighten their stand against an incoming tidal wave.

A complex, multicultural word with many meanings. According to the Celts, it is a name bestowed upon a most cherished lake in Kilarney: as in "Lough Leane- the lake of Learning. According to the French Le ane means "the ass." Usually a name given to a female. She is as unique as her name, fiercely independent, a great lover of all things creative and curiuos. She loves laughter. A lot. A Leane has an impish side and enjoys causing chaos then running away. Like a little Buddha figurine she does her work, leaves her influence, then moves on to the next project leaving droplets of cosmic confusion in her wake. A Leane has so many layers it is often difficult to get to her core. This makes a Leane feel like no one ever understands her yet she understands all. She is an enchantress and casts her spell on everyone she meets. Matter of fact spellbinder would be a synonym for Leane. Be sure to befriend a Leane when you meet one, you will gain a friend that cares about you more than you would ever know. They are approachable but make sure you leave a mirrors and shiny objects behind. Make sure you offer a Leane homemade cookies, or red wine (unless, of course they are under the age of 21 in the USA). Beware, however, the spelling. Not all Leanes are alike and are often mistaken for Leigh-anns or Leannes. Less than 1% of all women in the world are Leanes so if you find one there might be a leprechaun nearby with a pot of gold, and of course, a rainbow.

To create Lean, a popular drink originated from Houston Texas, you require the following for the original formula:

-Promethazine w/Codeine VC <- Sizzurp (active ingredient)
-Original Sprite Soda <- Mixing ingredient (although different flavors of sprite are now used, such as sprite remix)
-Jolly rancher candy <- Flavor additive

Put it all in a styrofoam cup and enjoy. The codeine is mainly responsible for the euphoric feeling after drinking lean. Promethazine causes motor skill impairment, lethargy, extreme drowsiness, as well as a disassociative feeling from all other parts of the body, specifically the stomach and digestive system. If it doesn't have promethazine w/ Codeine, it isn't real sizzurp.

The mixed drink combination known as "lean", is normally the color purple, due the added ingredient sizzurp, which is originally a dark purple syrup. There are other colors of sizzurp which can be added to create lean, but the purple is the true sizurp

Lean does not contain ANY form of alcohol, crushed pills, or other liquids in general.
