SUMMARY:Whole-Self Prayer: Bringing Body\, Heart\, Mind\, and Spirit to Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, January 11\, 2027\n12:00-1:30 p.m. ET\n$18\n \nWhat happens when we bring our whole selves to prayer—not only our words and thoughts\, but also our bodies\, hearts\, emotions\, and spirits?\n \nIn this gentle and embodied gathering with Rabbi Jaymee Alpert\, we’ll explore Whole-Self Prayer\, a practice that weaves together movement\, Jewish wisdom\, and reflection. Through mostly chair-based exercises\, with optional floor variations\, we’ll have an opportunity to slow down\, notice what is present within us\, and discover new ways of entering into prayer.\n \nTogether\, we’ll consider how movement and embodied awareness can deepen our relationship with Jewish prayer—and how prayer might meet us differently when we make space for the wisdom of our whole selves.\n \nNo prior experience with movement\, meditation\, or embodied prayer is necessary. All exercises are offered with options and invitations rather than expectations\, so you can participate in whatever way feels right for you.\n \nCome as you are\, and bring your whole self. This gathering is part of Ritual Lab\, Ritualwell’s new monthly series celebrating innovation in contemporary Jewish ritual. Each session features visionary writers\, artists\, and spiritual leaders who are expanding Jewish ritual practice in creative\, meaningful\, and accessible ways.\n \nThis event will be recorded and sent to participants. We encourage live attendance for you to get the most out of the experience.\n \n\nFor twenty years Rabbi Jaymee Alpert was a congregational rabbi. she sat with people on the best days of their lives and the worst\, learning what it looks like when someone is quietly coming apart\, and what it takes to help them put themselves back together.She also lifts weights and teaches boxing. And over time\, she noticed something: people say things while they’re moving that they would never say sitting still.\n \nSo she stopped treating the body as separate from the rest of the person. Fifteen years ago\, she started wondering what would happen if people moved their bodies before they did the harder inner work\, and has been asking that question ever since\, one-on-one\, and with whole rooms full of people. Now Rabbi Jaymee works with people  who want a Jewish practice they can feel in their muscles the next day. And with plenty of people who don’t fit neatly into any category. Find her at www.strongandgrounded.com.\n\n
