Judaism as a Spiritual Practice

Taught by: Rabbi James Jacobson-Maisels
Tuesday, 5:15-6:30pm

In this course, through both studying texts and performing the practices
themselves, we will explore and experiment with a range of Jewish spiritual
practices.  We will aim to both understand and experience the transformative
power of these practices, largely from the Hasidic tradition. Participants
are asked to come with intellectual, emotional, and spiritual openness and
the willingness to experiment.
