Jewish Meditation Chavurah
Friday, Sep 19th 5:50p to 6:50p
Join our monthly Jewish Meditation Chavurah—a welcoming and safe space for gathering, reflection, and connection. Each session will include guided meditation grounded in Jewish tradition, time for sharing in community, and the opportunity to deepen personal growth through a dedicated meditation partner outside of gatherings. Supported by a grant from Hadar, participants commit to attending all eight sessions to foster trust and continuity. Each meeting includes a light vegetarian nosh and beverages. No prior meditation experience or physical ability is necessary—just a willingness to be present and connect . Led by Dr. Hanna Chusid, Lic Psychologist. Hanna has been weaving Jewish wisdom and practice in healing arts for half a century. A certified Jewish Meditation teacher for nearly 25 years, Hannah brings her knowledge and passion in Jewish meditation to this thoughtful series.
