Dear Friends,
We are very excited to be offering four transformative programs with extraordinary teachers and guides during the month of Elul in preparation for the High Holidays. Traditionally, Elul, the month prior to the Jewish New year, provides an opportunity for
heshbon hanefesh/an accounting of the soul. There are many ways to approach this kind of deep self-relfection. For some, writing or journaling provides powerful access to the truth that resides in the heart. For others, music creates the inner intimacy that allows for self-reflection. Cultivating the mind through learning provides yet another place of entry and for some, movement of the body creates an attune-ment with the soul. Below you will discover four such opportunities for delving into the heart and soul of this season.
Please join us for one or all of these offerings.
For those interested in attending High Holiday Services in the Berkshires, there are several options. The Berkshires is home to five synagogues, a Chabad house and The Berkshire Minyan. Additionally, Isabella Freedman Jewish Retreat Center provides both a traditional and a Renewal service for the holidays. This year Rabbi Shir Yaakov Feit will be leading the Renewal service at Isabella Freedman. You can find contact information for all of these options on the Rimon website under
Resources.
As we move into the month of Elul, may we find the strength, courage and compassion to take some initial steps toward honest self-reflection.
With Blessings,
Rabba Kaya
