Every year, the Rabbis teach, at the end of the summer, life pulses with a subliminal call to return to our deepest selves—to heal, recalibrate, and renew ourselves. The New Moon of Elul signals the start of a 40-day journey home that culminates at Yom Kippur, Day of At-one-ment.

This year, one that is hobbled by illness and upheaval, the call to go inward is profoundly needed. It summons us to gather together as best we can, to create sacred space and travel together into stillness, prayer, and re-alignment with our souls, and the soul of the world.

Reb Tirzah will lead this online Elul retreat hosted by Congregation Nevei Kodesh in Boulder, Colorado, with guided meditations, music, and teachings to help us recount our losses and harvest the gifts of the past year. Please bring a journal or notebook and pen/pencil and join us as we launch our High Holiday season.
