SUMMARY:Sound Bath Meditation
DESCRIPTION:A sound bath is a restorative and meditative practice of listening to soothing sound vibrations of crystal singing bowls. These sessions offer space to release what no longer serves you and invite a sense of calm\, relief\, or deeper self-connection. Bring your own eye pillow\, mat or blanket to lie on\, socks\, or anything else that will provide you with a comfortable experience. Certified sound meditation facilitator Elizabeth Lidov will be leading. \nRegister \nThis program is sponsored by Maggie’s Place\, Mishkan’s holistic wellness center which provides support groups\, resources\, and pastoral counseling free of charge.

SUMMARY:Tisha b'Av
DESCRIPTION:On Tisha b’Av we remember the most painful moments of our people’s history. While the destruction of the the first and second Temples in Jerusalem are the big headline losses\, this holiday has become a container for our collective pain over generations and into the present\, and an opportunity to examine our own role in causing harm to ourselves and others. \nIt is the one other 25 hour fast day on the Jewish calendar along with Yom Kippur\, but while the Yom Kippur fast has a redemptive and healing quality to it\, the fast of Tisha B’Av has a mournful\, regretful quality to it. \nJoin us for a meal\, text study\, and discussion about the holiday before we embark on our traditional reading of Eicha (Lamentations). While we will be charging for the dinner and text study\, anyone is welcome to join us for the ritual elements at no cost. Our meal\, text study\, and discussion will begin at 7:00 PM. The ritual portion of the evening will begin at 8:30 PM with a reading of Eicha (Lamentations). \nRegister \n
