Jewish Zone Seminars
SEMINAR UPDATE:
Intuition and Destiny - Working
from the Jewish Zone
A series of 3 workshops with meditative,
integrative exercises based on the work of Efim Swirsky.
Accessing and deepening our intuitive
senses to answer our questions and work with our destiny.
--------------------------------------------------
Intuiting the Past, Healing the Present
When we relax and reflect on our lives, we see basic themes
running through them like currents. When we let ourselves imagine where
the current began, we find our personal legends, our personal
archetypes, our own metaphors. Then we work with them...

Join Varda Branfman
For a Workshop in Journal Writing
Writing in the
Garden - A Workshop for Women
Find a pool of memories, pull your
weeds or let them grow wild, and expand your field of vision.
We’ll meet in my home in Ramat
Shlomo to talk about the joys and healing potential of journal writing.
Then, weather permitting, we’ll take a walk in the woods near my home.
We’ll write along the way and let the Land inspire us.
Bring an empty notebook or
sketchbook, (preferably without lines), and your favorite writing pen
or pens. Refreshments will be served.

About Our Seminars:
If you lived in a world whose events were
unbelievable, what would your response be?
Excerpt
From an Interview With a Chasidic Rebbe
Rabbi Twerski
has a
way of tapping the shoulder of the child that sleeps in each of us.
"Rabbi, are
you
saying that at any moment a man can choose his freedom, turn to G-d and
alter, not only the course of his life, but all of human history?"
"I should hope
to
say so."
"And, Rabbi,
the
vehemence of your tone. Are you a revolutionary?"
Evocations of
childhood recede. Twerski leans forward in his chair, his eyes
glistening with the quiet fire of conviction. On the eve of
Passover, he touches your knee softly and speaks in tones so low that
they seem to hint at some exciting alliance with a universe of
possibility.
From an interview with Rabbi Shloime Twerski, ztzal, the Admor
of Hornosteipel, in the
Rocky Mountain News-Denver, Co. - March 31, '80
Events in Israel, in the Jewish world in
general,
and in the whole world itself, literally defy belief at this point in
history.
Certain conclusions have to be drawn.
Therefore, we
have seen that the concepts behind our seminars have to be revamped to
reflect these conclusions.
Our new seminars will also
have to
defy belief.
They'll have to defy our beliefs about
ourselves and
our limitations. They'll have to draw from the wellsprings of our
deepest visions and inspire us to dare to believe that we can make a difference. That we can reach our highest aspirations
and discover the magnificent hidden parts of our souls that we've only
barely touched into, infrequently. That we can partake in all the experience that the Torah
promises us we can, and become everything
that the Torah promises us we can be. We will have to believe,
with all the modesty that is required of us as Jewish people, that it
is supremely important to the future of the world that we do this work.
We will have to become
revolutionaries again.
We're working on it. New ideas and
concepts are pouring in rapidly, and we're excited. Soon, God willing,
we'll be posting notices about them on this page. Keep tuned.
