Mental Health Awareness Month: Just Breathe - Special Edition

Mental Health Awareness Month: Just Breathe - Special Edition

May is #MentalHealthAwareness month and in this month’s Just Breathe: Wisdom + Wellness we will amplify the importance of a holistic approach to health, especially as we process the pandemic and its effects on each of us and our communities.

We begin with a teaching rooted in the mindfulness tradition from within Jewish wisdom, where we explore topics such as: navigating anxiety, cultivating balance, living with uncertainty, practicing self compassion, and discovering resources for resilience.

As we deepen our experience, we engage in a guided meditation practice that draws on concepts from the teaching; increasing our awareness to what is real and true for each of us as we navigate our world…especially during these challenging times. Meditation is more than just bringing calm and quiet to our minds, it enables us to be as awake as possible to our lives.

No experience necessary. Everyone welcome.

** Please reach out to us if you are in need of a confidential space for pastoral care or are seeking a list of therapist referrals. The NAMI HelpLine is now offering extended hours from 10am-8pm ET by phone 800-950-NAMI(6264) or info@nami.org. #NotAlone

Just Breathe: Elul Edition [Transformation + Renewal]

Our experience this evening is rooted in Jewish text as we deepen our learning, and engage in a practice that increases our awareness to what is real and true for each of us as we navigate this moment of transition from one year to the next. Through text study, discussion, and guided meditation, tonight’s class will foster a space for both thoughtful introspection as well as intentional goal setting as we strive to be as awake as possible to our lives and to our needs during this time of transition.

*** Please note, the Den is excited to be a partner of Elul+ (a project of Jewitathome.com), a global Jewish community, coming together to offer classes and gatherings daily throughout the month of Elul.
