Antisemitism has exploded in the wake of the October 7 massacre. Reading, watching, and listening to the news can provoke fear, anger, rage, and despair. Often it can feel hard to stay calm and even simply engaged with what's happening in the world. Join us for a light breakfast as guest speaker Rabbi Josh Feigelson, PhD., CEO and President of the Institute of Jewish Spirituality, explores how Jewish mindfulness practices can help us respond wisely and mindfully to what we see, hear, and experience.
