Mental Health Workshop #2: Jewish Wisdom for Self Care and Growing Older
2021-04-19 19:00 - 20:00
“Rabbi Hillel used to say: If I am not for myself, who will be for me? And when I am for myself alone, what am I? And if not now, when?” (Pirkei Avot/Ethics of Our Ancestors 1:14)

We have experienced physical isolation for many months and have tried to find creative ways to stay connected to each other and to ourselves. These workshops offer tips, techniques, and resources to promote wellbeing and connection based on current research and Jewish wisdom. It will be an opportunity for meaningful community conversations to explore together how we understand and find meaning and purpose in the experience of growing older during these uncertain times – the challenges, the transitions, the losses, and the joys!

The Workshop Facilitator will be Marjorie Sokoll, M.Ed., Director of the Betty Ann Greenbaum Miller Center for Jewish Healing at Jewish Family & Children’s Service (JF&CS).

Please RSVP: Rabbi Greg at gregory.hersh@gmail.com

The designs look complicated but Susan McFarlane goes step by step and everyone will end up with a beautiful design.
