This episode of our podcast features a teaching by Rebecca Schisler of the IJS Core Faculty. It's the last of five daily meditations she led on the theme of "Practicing with the Elements: Earth-Based Jewish Wisdom for Tu B'shvat." The series takes us experientially through the four elements of earth, water, air, and fire. And in this concluding meditation, Rebecca guides us to greater awareness of the sacred fire that is both an essential and the most intangible aspect of our being, representing the spiritual essence which connects us with － and makes us responsible for － all of Creation.
The meditation featured in this episode originally took place during the IJS Daily Online Meditation Sit on January 26, 2024. To join these FREE daily meditations live, sign up here.
