SUMMARY:Writing with Rebbe Nachman: Creating our own Spiritual Stories
DESCRIPTION:Mondays\, February 17\, 24 & March  3\, 10\, 17 and 24\, 2025\n1:00-2:30 p.m. EST\n$250\n \nRebbe Nachman of Breslov (1772 – 1810) is an enigmatic figure whose life and teaching still exert enormous influence across the Jewish world. The stories of Rebbe Nachman draw upon deep\, archetypal themes in our consciousness. These stories often read like fantastical children’s tales\, or Kafka-esque puzzles\, posing us questions intended to provoke awakening. They are based upon Rebbe Nachman’s profound grasp of Torah and Kabbalah\, and have also been read in the light of broader creative and intellectual movements such as Romanticism and Existentialism. Rebbe Nachman himself said that the stories were his deepest\, most powerful teachings.\n \nJoin Rabbi Daniel Raphael Silverstein to learn about and discuss some of Rebbe Nachman’s key stories\, discovering the meaning that they hold for us today. Then\, building on this inspiration\, we will take time to create our own stories\, or at least begin them. There will also be time for optional sharing and feedback\, so we can benefit from one another’s wisdom and perspective on what we have created.\n\n \nAll sessions will be recorded and sent to participants. We encourage live attendance for you to get the most out of the experience.\n \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. He was born and raised in London and 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.\n \n\n      \n        \n      \n    \n

SUMMARY:Write Your Light Hanukkah Journal
DESCRIPTION: \nWrite Your Light is a unique new Hanukkah journal that features readings from Ritualwell writers\, designed to serve as kavannot (intentions) for each day of your Hanukkah festivities. Each reading is accompanied by a creative writing prompt\, allowing you to express the light of your creativity throughout the holiday. This printable PDF will be sent to you electronically.\n \nWhen you purchase the journal\, you will also receive a recording of a special Hanukkah event featuring Jewish mindfulness teacher\, Rabbi Daniel Raphael Silverstein. Delve into how our ancient sages and mystics have understood Hanukkah as a time to enhance our ability to perceive the Or Haganuz\, or Hidden Light. This light\, believed to have been present at the creation of the Universe\, symbolizes the unity of all existence. It represents hope\, connection\, and redemption\, making Hanukkah a perfect time to practice recognizing and appreciating this light\, which\, though concealed\, is present in everything surrounding us.\n \n\n      \n        \n      \n    \n

SUMMARY:Judaism Through The Kaleidoscope: Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook
DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays\, May 1\, 8\, 15\, 22\, 29 and June 5\, 2024 \n1-2:30 p.m. EDT\n$250 \nRabbi Abraham Isaac Kook (1865 – 1935) was the first Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi of pre-state Israel\, a profound poet\, and a giant of both mysticism and Jewish law. He was a radical thinker\, writer and activist who provoked much opposition during his lifetime from conservative leaders of Ultra-Orthodox communities. \nRabbi Kook saw the Divine spark in everything and viewed all events as part of an evolutionary process towards a redeemed and unified world. His writings contain beautiful and insightful gems on subjects such as: freedom as the key foundation of Judaism; our relationship with our bodies; pluralism\, tolerance and polarization; the many layers of our multiple identities; particularism and universalism; the narratives of our own lives and of all of human history. Together\, we will explore his rich\, beautiful writings and use them as opportunities for spiritual practice\, including creative writing and guided embodied exercises. \n \nAll sessions will be recorded and sent to participants. We encourage live attendance for you to get the most out of the experience.\n \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 (https://www.appliedjewishspirituality.org/)\, an online portal which makes the transformative spiritual wisdom of our tradition accessible to all who seek it.

SUMMARY:Choosing Joy: The Teachings of Rebbe Nachman
DESCRIPTION:Thursdays\, January 25 and February 1\, 8\, 15\, 22\, 29\, 2024 \n1-2:30 p.m. EST\n$250 for six sessions\n \nRebbe Nachman of Breslov (1772 – 1810) founded a specific stream of Chasidism that was once tiny\, and has somehow become an influential force throughout the Jewish world. The psychological insight\, poetic beauty and spiritual power of his teachings have touched many seekers. Together\, we will explore who he was\, how his ideas spread\, and some of his key themes\, in theory and practice. These include: the transformative power of music and song; our power and responsibility to shape ourselves and our world; how our thoughts affect our reality; the struggle to be joyful; the practice of praying in our own words (Hitbodedut); and maintaining resilience and equanimity throughout the challenges of life.\n \nAll sessions will be recorded and sent to participants. We encourage live attendance for you to get the most out of the experience.\n \n\nDaniel Raphael Silverstein is a rabbi\, educator\, meditation teacher and MC/poet.

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.
