A Derekh Eretz Online Learning Opportunity

Date: May 13th
Time: 9am - 10am PT/ 12pm - 1pm EST

Location: Virtual for the USCJ Network

Presented by Rabbi Adina Allen and Rabbi Adam Lavitt of Jewish Studio Project

Are you part of the USCJ community? In the face of ongoing violence in Israel, political turmoil at home, and growing divisions within communities, we invite you to join a series of creative programs designed to help you engage both your head and heart.

This program explores human emotion through the sacred words of Psalms and the creative process. Combining the words of Psalms, texts that speak to and can hold every human emotion and the power of creative process to regulate our nervous systems, to sit with our questions, to connect to our hearts and to guide our actions allows our communities and organizations throughout the Jewish ecosystem, to be with each other across difference, across space and time, and through all the emotions that have arisen.

Session 1: Beyond Words: Tapping into other ways of knowing

Session 2: Wisdom of the Heart: Learning to listen within 

Session 3: Hope and Longing: Calling forth the world we desire

Session 4: The Path of Life: Finding a generative & generous way forward
