Join Rebecca Schisler of the IJS Core Faculty for a short mindfulness practice for Lag Ba'Omer, the 33rd of the 49 days between Passover and Shavuot. She explores the Kabbalistic concept of Hod — surrender, acceptance, and splendor — inviting us to soften our grip on how things "should" be, and instead open to gratitude and sacred presence in each moment. In this practice, she guides us to shift from reactivity to wise response, nurturing a "healing gaze" on our lives and our world.
