WE PUT THE OHM INTO SHALOM! Scientific research has verified repeatedly the positive effects of turning down the body for a few minutes each day. Meditation lowers heart rate, reduces blood pressure, eases tension, and clears the mind. This class is open to everyone and you don’t even have to be Jewish. But our mantras always are, and are chosen based on the season and the Torah readings. Come do yourself a tovah (a good thing) and treat yourself to a few minutes of inspiration and relaxation. It will make the rest of the day so much better!

for those caring for a parent, spouse, sibling, or child

The Daf Shevu’i class has been meeting for a few years and is wide-open to new members. We do one page of Talmud a week. Sound slow? Only to those who may have never opened a page of Talmud. The page or daf is pretty dense. We are studying Sanhedrin or the laws that governed that great body of scholars who handled the legal cases of the Jewish people through the second Temple period. What were their court procedures, how did they go about executing the condemned, who was eligible for the world-to-come and who was not, etc.? These are fascinating subjects that will undoubtedly inspire much conversation.
