During times of global uncertainty and change, we can turn to Jewish texts to help us move through our fear and isolation towards deeper, sustaining truths. The challenges of our time may feel uniquely modern, but throughout history many of our ancestors have grappled with similar spiritual issues: How do I act from a place of hope? How do I envision beyond loss? How do I have faith in the world around me?
 
Join Rabbi Ora Nitkin-Kaner, a climate change chaplain and innovative spiritual leader, to delve into the questions that are keeping you up at night. Rabbi Nitkin-Kaner will guide us in using Talmudic and aggadic midrash in translation and creative practices to help us find courage, resilience and a sense of ease in a changing world.
 
This session will be recorded and sent to participants. We encourage live attendance for you to get the most out of the experience.

Rabbi Ora Nitkin-Kaner is a meditation teacher, climate change chaplain, and educator who leads with warmth, curiosity, gentle humor, and compassion. Over the past 15 years, she has worked in prisons, hospitals, and congregations to steady folks through hard times.

Exploring Apocalypse is an extension of her rabbinic and pastoral care work (Reconstructionist Rabbinical College, 2016), and is shaped by additional professional trainings in Climate Psychology (California Institute of Integral Studies, 2022), Clinical Pastoral Education (East Jefferson General Hospital, 2017 and Bellevue Hospital, 2013), and certified yoga and meditation teacher training (Yoga Sanctuary Academy, 2011), as well as graduate work in intergenerational trauma narratives (University of Toronto, 2008).
