Jewish Mindfulness adds the teachings of our tradition to deepen the meditative experience.
These coursees, led by Rabbi George Gittleman and occasional guest leaders, will include teaching, meditation instruction, and periods of silence.
By practicing together, we’ll enhance our ability to listen to the voice within and expand our sense of interconnectedness.
The seasons of the Jewish calendar serve as a guiding theme, to deepen the meditative experience.
No previous experience is necessary.
