A 1/2 Day Chanukah Retreat -- Kindling our Inner Light

Chanukah is a time to focus on light. 

During this season we bring awareness to the ways we experience darkness and light.  Kindling small lights help us peer into the darkness, so that we can illuminate whatever is present – our vulnerability, fear, strengths, joy, beauty and pain - with gentleness and compassion.

Join us for a ½ day of Mindfulness Meditation exploring how Chanukah can be lived as a practice of  growth and hope can be a source of light during the darkest time of the year.  This 1/2 day will incorporate chant, study, discussion, gentle movement and periods of silent mindfulness meditation. (1-5 meditation followed by Havdallah - end by 5:30 p.m.)

Led by: Rabbi Rex Perlmeter, Beth Sandweiss, Cantor Meredith Greenberg, Larry Schwartz, Shelley Levine, and Melissa Schaffer. Sponsored by The Jewish Wellness Center of North Jersey, the JMC (Jewish Meditation Center) of Montclair, Congregations Ner Tamid and Bnai Keshet. 

There is a $25 fee for this event
