TESHUVAH & TRANSFORMATION: An Embodied Approach To The Jewish High Holidays with Josh Schreiber
Sunday, September 12, 10:30-1
Much of the point of the High Holidays is to make a change in ourselves, as we seek to leave the old year behind with all its 'sins' and free ourselves to move forward with a clearer image of our best selves. We call this change teshuvah, which, loosely translated, means ‘return’—traditionally referring to return to the ethical behavior and God, but also to living in spiritual harmony with God and the world in which we live.  Somewhat like the High Holidays, the Feldenkrais Method is concerned with changing habits. On the surface it might seem to be about habits of physical movement, but Moshe Feldenkrais recognized that there is less separation between the habits of the body and the habits of the mind than we might think. This workshop will take a look at some of the core themes of the High Holiday liturgy through the concrete experience of Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement® explorations. No prior experience of Judaism or the Feldenkrais Method is required. $28 or class card x 2
