Freedom is an Open Heart - Mindful practice & Jewish wisdom for challenging times with Rabbi George Gittleman and Cantor Kerith Spencer Shapiro

Mar de Jade Retreat and Wellness Resort, Chacala, Mexico

Our week together will be a rich mix of sitting and walking meditation, study, instruction, prayer, and song as well as daily yoga. Rabbi George Gittleman and Cantor Kerith Spencer-Shapiro are longtime meditators, and certified Jewish Mindfulness Meditation teachers with years of experience working with people on their inner lives. The beautiful meditation hall where we spend most of our time is just a stone's throw from the ocean. The soothing sound of the surf is a constant companion throughout our time together. The retreat will be mostly silent Saturday evening through Wednesday evening, allowing time for excursion and/or R&R on Thursday and Friday with a Shabbat celebration Friday evening. The schedule will be simple - sitting or walking meditation interspersed with learning and instructions with time to "just be" and enjoy the beauty of Mar de Jade. All backgrounds and levels of experience are welcome.

Getting in Tune - Speaking the Language of Your Musical Team

Music is a language of its own. You may not be fluent, but learning to be conversant can help bridge communication gaps with your team. Whether you are a rabbi who works with a cantor, soloist, or amateur musicians, come together to explore how the language and other modes of communication can foster or hinder partnerships with your musical team.
