Jewish Meditation for Everyone

Holding our Heartbreak on October 7

Episode Summary

Rabbi Marc Margolius leads a meditation for holding all of the thoughts, feelings and sensations which arise for us one year after the atrocities of October 7, 2023. He grounds this practice in a verse from Psalm 145, "karov Adonai l'chol kor'av, the Holy One is close to all who call, l'chol asher yik'r'uhu b'emet, to all who call to God in truth." This meditation is for noticing and bearing witness to what is true, for each of us. This episode is a recording of a live session, "Holding our Heartbreak" held Monday evening, October 7, 2024. We hope you find it supportive and meaningful as you process your own thoughts and feelings, one year later. Thanks for being here and bearing witness together.
