SUMMARY:Meditating with the Siddur
DESCRIPTION:Prayer is a means to connect meaningfully to the infinite loving center of the universe. Yet praying from words written by other people in very different contexts from our own can be challenging. If we slow down our encounter with each prayer\, we can appreciate that they are each a carefully composed work of spiritual technology. They are roadmaps of inner discovery\, full of questions that can invite us to open to new experiences of self-awareness\, gratitude\, empathy\, love\, resilience\, connection\, and wholeness. In this immersion\, we will explore prayers from Shacharit (the Morning Service) as invitations to meditative practices and exercises\, including embodied movement\, writing exercises\, guided visualizations\, chanting\, and so on. Together\, we will deepen our experiential connection to prayers such as the Shema and the Amidah\, in ways that we can later draw upon whenever we desire. With each prayer\, we will search for how it resonates within us\, and how it can support us in our ongoing journey of becoming our best possible selves. There will also be space for intentional sharing\, so we will be enriched by both our own inner experiences and that of our fellow community members. \nDaniel Raphael Silverstein is a rabbi\, educator\, meditation teacher and MC/poet. He lives in Israel with his family\, where he directs Applied Jewish Spirituality\, an online portal which makes the transformative spiritual wisdom of our tradition accessible to all who seek it. Daniel is an accredited teacher of Jewish Mindfulness Meditation and regularly teaches classes and retreats. Daniel was born and raised in London\, and he received a BA from the University of Cambridge and an MA from Warwick University. After receiving semikha from Yeshivat Chovevei Torah Rabbinical School\, he served as Director of Jewish Life and Learning for Hillel of Stanford University in Palo Alto\, CA. Daniel has performed and facilitated all over the world as a spoken word artist\, MC\, and creative educator\, and the Jewish Week selected him as one of their “36 Under 36” young innovators reshaping the Jewish community. Daniel is a cofounder of Lines of Faith\, a Muslim-Jewish hip hop and poetry collective that uses performances and workshops to challenge prejudice and build meaningful bonds between communities. \nAll sessions will be recorded and sent to participants. We encourage live attendance for you to get the most out of the experience.

SUMMARY:Songs of the Grass: Exploring Jewish Eco-Poetry
DESCRIPTION:“Each and every grass has a song” – Rebbe Nachman of Bratslav \nThe Jewish environmental movement has sought to excavate and breathe new life into ancient texts that call us to right relationship with this fragile and holy earth. Jewish poets vividly describe the human encounter with plants\, animals\, and the elements where they often find intimations of the Divine or cause for protest on behalf of the non-human world. Together we’ll read poetry and other Jewish writings that will inspire our own experiments with eco-poetry. Some poets we will read include Marge Piercy\, Muriel Rukeyser\, Alicia Ostriker\, Adrienne Rich\, Denise Levertov\, Stanley Moss\, Stuart Kestenbaum\, Phillip Levine\, Mónica Gomery\, and more! We’ll engage in writing exercises\, some of which will take us outside to our local environments to allow us to listen to\, and translate\, the voices of the earth. You will come away with a deepened appreciation for Jewish wisdom on the environment and a number of poem drafts that will help you envision your personal Torah of the earth. \nHila Ratzabi is the author of the poetry collection There Are Still Woods\, forthcoming in September 2022 from June Road Press. She holds a BA in English/Creative Writing from Barnard College\, a BA in Jewish Philosophy from the Jewish Theological Seminary (Double Degree Program\, 2003)\, and an MFA in Poetry from Sarah Lawrence College (2007). Her poetry is published in a variety of literary journals and in The Bloomsbury Anthology of Contemporary Jewish American Poetry and Ghost Fishing: An Eco-Justice Poetry Anthology. Her articles have appeared in publications including The Wisdom Daily\, MyJewishLearning.com\, the Jewish Daily Forward\, Kveller\, Alma\, and Zeek. Ratzabi is Director of Virtual Content & Programs at Ritualwell.org and lives in Oak Park\, Il.\, outside Chicago\, with her spouse and two children. \nAll sessions will be recorded and sent to participants. We encourage live attendance for you to get the most out of the experience.

SUMMARY:Creating New Jewish Liturgy: A Talk with Dr. Marcia Falk
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Marcia Falk is one of the foremothers of the Jewish feminist movement and an innovator of Jewish liturgy and poetry. Join us for a special opportunity to hear her speak about her process creating new liturgy\, including how and why she began the project that ultimately led to her books The Book of Blessings and The Days Between. She’ll discuss how her work evolved over time and she’ll delve into the relationship between theology and liturgy\, with specific emphasis on feminist perspectives. The session will include a Q & A. \nDr. Marcia Falk is widely known in the Jewish world for her poetic re-creations of Hebrew and English liturgy from an inclusive\, nonpatriarchal perspective. Her bilingual prayer book\, The Book of Blessings: New Jewish Prayers for Daily Life\, the Sabbath\, and the New Moon Holiday\, originally published in 1996 and released in a 20th-anniversary edition by the CCAR Press\, is considered a classic of modern Jewish liturgy and is used today by congregations in North America\, Europe\, and Israel\, as well as by individuals. The Book of Blessings has been praised by distinguished author Cynthia Ozick\, who wrote\, “Marcia Falk’s work on Hebrew blessings is as beautiful as it is innovative\,” and by liturgy scholar Rabbi Lawrence Hoffman\, who called it “a liturgical and literary masterpiece.” Learn more at https://www.marciafalk.com/. \nThe session will be recorded and sent to participants.

After his exile from Spain\, medieval Jewish rabbi Nachmanides (the Ramban) sent a letter to his son offering his blueprint for an ethical life.

SUMMARY:Ritualwell Open House – September 14th
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Hila Ratzabi & Adva Chattler \nExplore Ritualwell’s online learning offerings at our open house days! Enjoy a taste of our faculty’s inspiring teachings with short\, 30-minute sessions. Free and open to all. \nOpen House sessions schedule: \n11:00 a.m. EDT\, Leslie Contreras Schwartz: “Poetry as Prayer: Writing the Personal through Invocation”\nPoetry can be a conduit to exploring how our own lives connect to a sense of the Divine.

Together\, we will learn and reflect upon our responses to heart-opening teachings about teshuvah from the great twentieth-century poet and mystic\, Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook. \n  \n12:00 p.m. EDT\, Trisha Arlin: “Truth and the Talking Donkey” \nWhat is truth telling? In parashat Balak\, it’s a talking donkey (and his passenger)\, and these days\, in shul\, sometimes it can be the liturgist and the poet. We will examine the relationship between truth and prayer\, and ask: What does a good talking donkey need to be their best self? \n  \n  \n \n12:30 p.m. EDT\, ADVOT Info session\nCurious about ADVOT@Ritualwell\, our year-long cohort for ritual innovators\, poets\, and liturgists?

We’ll dip into a brief short story by Grace Paley\, dissect its magic tricks\, and talk about how time is an invisible thread running through all good fiction. At the end of the session\, I’ll offer an inspiring prompt for sketching a short story / life story of your own.\n \n  \n2:00 p.m. EDT\, Ayeola Omolara Kaplan: “Dreaming up Olam Shalem: Creating a World that is Whole”\nExplore the creative relationship between Jewish spirituality and the practice of using art to build a holy society with Ayeola Omolara Kaplan\, a Black\, Queer\, and Jewish artist. Our conversation will inspire a collaborative artwork that Ayeola will begin sketching during the session and share with participants the following week. This experience will model a playful way to engage in Jewish spirituality that you can practice whenever you need to recharge your sense of hope and possibility. The collaborative art piece will serve as a reminder of the divine world we aspire to create together. \nThese sessions will not be recorded.
