About the event
Join us for a RUACH Community Meditation
Jamaica Plain Edition ✨
Together, we'll explore Jewish concepts of sitting/dwelling, and of conscious return to the breath, through the lens of mindful meditation practice. We'll be guided by the wonderful Oren Kaunfer, an IJS trained teacher and RUACH faculty member who is also Spiritual Educator at JCDS, the Jewish Community Day School.
After an hour of learning, including brief meditations, we'll break for nosh and schmoozing.
This is a great event to join if you've never been to RUACH before, or if you're a ringer! There will be something new for everyone.
Accessibility Note: This private residence requires climbing a short set of stairs to enter. No previous meditation or Jewish practice required — newbies of all stripes are MORE than welcome.
