Mayyim Hayyim is hosting a class for Nishmat Hayyim, all are welcome.
The Torah overflows with teachings on meditation; Genesis abounds with stories that undergird contemplative practice. We will study and practice these teachings through chant and silence. This month of Heshvan is a time to hunker down to live out the illumination of the soul's experience of the High Holidays. But in daily life we forget that experience and so become overwhelmed, irritable, weary, and lonely in ways that cloud compassion. Our practice together is a unique opportunity to create a communal vehicle for continuing reconnection to the Source of All Being and deepening transformation of our daily lives.
Whether you have no experience meditating or chanting or have a seasoned practice of any kind, all are welcome.
