We are excited to offer our first in-depth retreat specifically designed for young adults! This program invites you to slow down, connect with yourself and others, and drop into what matters most amidst the challenges of daily life and the ongoing difficulties we have been facing in the wake of the tumultuous events of this past year.
Utilizing the gifts of mindfulness, embodiment, song, prayer, and a variety of Jewish spiritual teachings, you will:
✨Learn tools and practices to reconnect with your innate wisdom and authenticity.
✨Nurture your capacity for resilience, compassion, and well-being.
✨Cultivate insight and wise action in response to the challenges of our world.
✨Refresh and renew your body, heart, mind and soul.
Falling between the Jewish holidays of Tisha B’av, a day of mourning, and Tu B’av, a day of celebrating love, our retreat is a sacred space to open our hearts to grief, love, and everything in between.
This retreat will be held mostly in social silence. All folks in their 20’s and 30’s are welcome. No experience with mindfulness and/or Judaism is necessary; this retreat is open to beginner and advanced practitioners alike.
This retreat will be facilitated by Yael Shy, CEO of Mindfulness Consulting, Rebecca Schisler, IJS Core Faculty, and Kohenet Keshira haLev Fife, IJS Faculty Fellow, with Jes Heppler as retreat manager and assistant teacher.
