From immersive workshops and keynote sessions to deep discussions and embodied spiritual practices, this conference offers something truly transformative for everyone.

Let’s Take Action: From Shared Grief to Spiritual Growth
1pm Pacific | 2pm Mountain | 4pm Eastern
For those struggling with collective grief, join a conversation with Jungian psychotherapist and scholar Rabbi Tirzah Firestone, PHD and Buddhist minister and teacher Lama Rod Owens. Both leaders will offer guidance in taking steps – both large and small – towards wisdom, spiritual growth, and action when faced with the troubles we collectively experience in the present and inherit from the past.
Following a discussion, we invite you to join small peer-led breakout room sessions guided by the following prompts:
What insights have you gained by struggling with the grief of catastrophic events both locally and globally or ancestral trauma? Can you name at least one new opportunity for change or see one new pathway that has cleared?
What roles can spiritual or mindfulness practice, service, advocacy, or activism play in your journey towards wholeness?
Wounds into Wisdom: Healing Intergenerational Jewish Trauma
A four-week course with the Institute for Jewish Spirituality
Mondays, 2-3:15pm PT | 3-4:15pm MT | 5:00 – 6:15pm ET
November 18, 25, December 2, 9, 2024
This past year has made it tragically clear how the traumatic histories of our ancestors can influence our reality—both personally and on the world stage. Learn to heal these wounds using wisdom from the crossroads of Jewish texts, neuroscience, and depth psychology.
Transform the residual effects of your and your family’s past to reclaim your innate wisdom and freedom in the present.
Join us for Wounds into Wisdom: Healing Intergenerational Jewish Trauma, a four-week introduction to healing the wounds of intergenerational Jewish trauma, offered by renowned author and teacher, Rabbi Tirzah Firestone, Ph.D.
Both our sacred texts and scientific data teach that traumatic wounds don’t simply disappear over time. The residues of the difficult circumstances that our ancestors endured over generations ripple across time, often cascading down the family tree, causing painful unconscious patterns that become stuck and affect us, our children, and our families.
This four-week course is designed to introduce the work of Jewish Ancestral Healing in a most personal sense, to help alleviate the residues of inherited traumas and dissolve their negative influences.
Rabbi Firestone will draw from her acclaimed book, Wounds into Wisdom: Healing Intergenerational Trauma (Monkfish, 2019), which received the 2020 Nautilus Book Award Gold in Psychology and the Jewish Women’s Caucus of the Association for Women in Psychology 2020 book award. This groundbreaking work employs interviews, case studies, and her own autobiographical narratives to demonstrate how trauma residue passes from generation to generation – and how it can be transformed.
The Tree of Life & the Tarot: Heal Ancestral Patterns & Access Powerful Guidance With Ancient Oracles & Kabbalah
SAVE THE DATE: Nov. 6, 2024
7 sessions on Wednesday*/Tuesdays at 10:00 AM Mountain | 9:00 AM Pacific
Below is the timeline of course dates:
Nov. 6* / Nov. 12 / Nov. 19 / Nov. 26 / Dec. 3 / Dec. 10 / Dec. 17
*Only the first session is on Wednesday due to the Nov. 5 Election Day.
The extraordinary healing power of the Kabbalah—will help us attune to the unseen dimensions and strengthen our connection to the earth plane. The vivid archetypal imagery of the Tarot’s Major Arcana will help us see beyond the present, to heal ourselves and the ancestral patterns that shape us. Both of these archetypal systems open portals of divine energy, to hear the guidance of our ancestors and our inner wisdom more distinctly.
Our journey will be both scholarly and deeply experiential. You will learn healing practices that calm and regulate your nervous system, experience guided journeys into the ancestral realms, and sacred oracular magic that connect you to the voice of inner Wisdom.
From Older to Elder: Becoming an Ancestor in Training
“The elder aims at becoming an ancestor. It is his or her next status…. The elder is an ancestor in training.”
—Malidome Somé
We Jews have accrued great wisdom and depth throughout our long history, and a great deal of wounding, as well, due to centuries of adversity. Epigenetic research now demonstrates what we may have intuited: that traumatic life events leave physiological imprints that can be transferred to future generations. As we enter our sage years, we must discern which of our ancestral legacies we wish to nurture and pass on into the world, and which ones must be faced, felt, and dissolved in the light of awareness.
Each of us comes into this world with specific tasks — sacred repair work that is paradoxically connected to our wounds and the challenges that have befallen us and our bloodlines. By exploring and understanding the legacies that we carry, we can better accomplish this sacred work—to honor our soul’s calling and step into our own spiritual clarity, health, and wisdom. This prepares us to enter the role of being a helpful ancestor and ally to those who come after us.
Ancestral Healing Retreat at Karme Choling
An In-Person Ritual & Study Immersion in Nature
Amidst the turbulence of global events, climate chaos, and our own personal fears and losses, this immersive retreat offers both ancestral medicine and the stabilizing wisdom of two ancient wisdom traditions, Judaism and Tibetan Buddhism. Both paths put forth a cherished archetype—in Judaism, the Tzaddik (righteous person) and in Buddhism, the Bodhisattva (one who chooses to give up their own enlightenment and wellbeing to liberate others.) Their combined teachings will be our springboard for deep personal and ancestral healing.
This powerful 3-day immersion will include:
Jewish and Buddhist text study
Transformational meditative practices
Sacred rituals in nature
Solo time to cultivate your connection to ancestral and soul guidance
Through these activities we will cultivate relationships with our own ancestors and deepen internal guidance.
This fall, gift yourself with a spiritual immersion into ancient wisdom and intergenerational medicine. Ancient texts of Judaism and Buddhism are our prism through which to encounter and heal our own familial legacies.

Understanding and Healing from Ancestral Trauma in Times of Turbulence and Transformation: A Free Online Event
Note this event will be July 9 for 75 minutes (North America, 7pm Pacific, 8pm Mountain) and July 10 (Australia,11:55am (AEST) for 12:00pm start, finishing at 1:15pm)

During this time of societal transformation and uncertainty, many of us are reverberating with the intensity of global events. We sense that our personal and collective wounds arise from a context much larger than our own. Whether we are talking about anxiety, addictive behaviors, or the oppression produced by hatred of self or other, when we widen the lens to include our ancestral lineages and their historical traumas, our own challenges and those of our clients take on a new perspective.
In this 60-minute teaching, Rabbi Dr. Tirzah Firestone will introduce the field of intergenerational trauma healing by sharing her own research, which is poised at the nexus of depth psychology, mysticism, and epigenetic science. She will then guide us in an experience into the healing dimension that Dr. Carl Jung called the Imaginal Realm (please have your journal on hand.) The teaching will close with a live Q & A conversation.
In this webinar, you will:
• Understand why intergenerational trauma healing is critical to the world now
• Study the four universal hallmarks of trauma
• Meet the burgeoning field of Epigenetics
• Hear remarkable case studies of trauma transmission
• Learn a grounding practice to calm and stabilize your nervous system and experience the Imaginal Realm
This is a free online event.
Keynote at the 28th Annual Ministering to the Elderly Conference — Transforming Intergenerational Trauma Into Healing
This event will be in-person only.
Ancestral Healing Practitioner Training
Rabbi Dr. Tirzah Firestone will be offering a 6-month course for therapists and healing practitioners interested to deepen their skills and toolset for incorporating intergenerational trauma healing modalities into their practice.
The course, titled Wounds into Wisdom: Breaking the Cycle of Intergenerational Trauma, will be under the aegis of Diane Poole Heller's Therapy Mastermind Circle (TMC), a monthly online membership program. It is once a month — hands on, interactive, and doable! Plus, it offers 12 Continuing Education Units (CEUs).
We begin the study on our own selves and our own ancestral lineages, first by studying the structure of the psyche according to Dr. Carl Jung, also known as depth psychology, in which the psyche is seen as a multi-layered facet of a larger ecosystem. Jung’s framework of the psyche will help us understand the psycho-emotional components of trauma, how it can be transferred intergenerationally, and how we can help our clients find healing with the support of a skillful practitioner like you. Later we will move to a neuroscience lens and understand the same issues with the help of epigenetic studies.
This is an exciting journey, affording much self-transformation and insight, which of course, helps our work with our clients and patients. Hope you can join us, or share with your friends who are in the field!

Wounds into Wisdom: Healing Intergenerational Jewish Trauma - An Online Event with Ner Shalom
7-8:30pm Pacific
Please join Rabbi and Jungian therapist Tirzah Firestone in an exclusive Ner Shalom event Zoomed from Boulder, Colorado. Reb Tirzah will explore with us the impact of collective ancestral trauma, so pervasive in our Jewish history, as well as that of other people. Her most recent book, Wounds into Wisdom, is based on research on the transformation of collective trauma, drawing on the fields of neuroscience, psychology and Jewish literature. Reb Tirzah will share key wisdom about how trauma residue passes l'dor v'dor, from generation to generation, and how we can begin to heal from its damage to our psyches.
A four-session experiential workshop based on Rabbi Tirzah's book Wounds into Wisdom will be offered in person at Ner Shalom starting on April 14. Created by Sally Churgel, Raphael Block and Stephanie Brown, the workshop will focus on creative activity (art and movement) combined with discussion, introspection and practicing grounding skills to help us heal the wounds of our individual and collective trauma.

The Mystic Tree of Life: Sacred Instrument for Ancestral & Personal Healing
A 3-week journey with 6 courses
Virtual classes, all classes will be recorded.
During this era of uncertainty and transformation, many of us are asking: How can we begin to heal the personal and ancestral traumas that keep pulling us back into negative cycles of reactivity, fear, and oppression of ourselves and others?
As if anticipating the urgent needs of our modern world, the ancient sages and mystics left us maps for navigating turbulent times on Planet Earth. One such template is the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, a radical system that helps us restore our connection to our starlit pathways to heaven and our healing roots in earth. The archetypal Tree is timeless and carries the breath of the ancestors who remind us of our magical capabilities to heal past, present, and future—not only our own wounds, but the traumatic histories of our ancestors and the repercussions for those who come next.
In this 3-week experiential journey, we will employ the vivid archetypal imagery of the Tarot’s Major Arcana to help ellicit the ancient medicine of the Eitz Chayim, the Living Tree, in order to heal ourselves and the ancestral patterns that shape us. With all this ancient richness at our fingertips, we will balance the 4 worlds of our soul’s composition, open our central channel, and awaken our 10 Sephirot—portals of divine energy—to hear the guidance of our ancestors more distinctly.
This is a deep and joy-filled journey that will assist us to heal wounds that we carry in our own being, and in our family lineages. As with all of Rabbi Tirzah’s courses, we take up the ancient wisdom to help us restore our inborn clarity, connection, and power—for the sake of the larger healing that is entreating us all.
This course will be offered through Caroline Myss’s Reflections Parallel. More details including how to register are coming soon! To be the first to know when registration opens, please sign up on Rabbi Dr. Tirzah Firestone’s email list below.

Intergenerational Trauma Healing Talk with Comox Valley Jung Society
7-9pm Pacific | 8-10 Mountain
In this online experiential evening, Rabbi Dr. Tirzah Firestone will draw from the ancient wisdom tradition of the Jewish Mystical Tradition known as the Kabbalah to address the influences of the past on ourselves, our families, and world events. Dr. Jung himself extolled the Kabbalah as illuminative of his psychological perspective. We will see how the extraordinary mythical perspectives of both Jungian psychology and the Kabbalah can attune us to the multiple interpenetrating dimensions of the psyche, helping us to see beyond time and understand and heal the ancestral legacies alive within us and the world.
Our journey will be both scholarly and experiential, including a guided journey (active imagination) into the Ancestral Realm, as well as select teachings from the ancient Book of Formation (2nd century), the Book of Splendor (13th century), and Lurianic Kabbalah (16th century) as templates for the work we all must do: repairing our souls (Tikkun haNephesh) and repairing the world (Tikkun Olam.)

Seeding Light: Speaking from the Heart in Dark Times
During this season of Hanukkah, when Jewish people traditionally celebrate the miracle of light that penetrates the cruelty of oppression, gather with Rabbi Tirzah Firestone and her dear friend Mirabai Starr to light candles and pray together. Together, they will share their heartbreak over the situation in Israel and Gaza, explore the moral dilemmas of this moment, and reaffirm the power of the heart to shift the global conversation from one of polarization to one that roots us in our common humanity.
Together we will ask:
In the midst of so much bloodshed, and so many innocent lives being lost, what might the Divine Mother say about all of this?
What can we do, thousands of miles from the actual violence, to help shift the trajectory toward peace and away from helplessness?
How can we go beyond charged polemics and keep re-finding our steady moral compass so that we can put out more light than heat in the world?
If you are staggering under the weight of global grief, plagued by outrage, fear, shame, or clouded by confusion, please take a seat beside us on the fifth night of Hanukkah as we light the candles, connect with our inner knowing, pray like we've never prayed before, listen to Her voice within, and explore the most challenging and life-giving truths we can about justice and injustice, dismantling false narratives and reimagining a new way forward. Seed the light with us.
Ancestral Healing through the Wisdom of the Kabbalah
Six 90-minute classes • Tuesdays & Thursdays
December 5 – 21 • 10 am PT | 11am MT | 1 pm ET
In this course we draw from the sacred wisdom tradition of the Kabbalah to help us return to our innate balance and heal the influences of past wounds on ourselves, our families and our ancestral bloodlines.
We sense the spell of past generations and their unresolved conflicts in the tragedies unfolding before our eyes. How can we break the cycles of intergenerational trauma and expand our hearts and minds to dis-spell the effects of past wounds upon us? Might healing our personal and family wounds quicken the collective healing so needed now?
In this course we draw from the sacred wisdom tradition of the Kabbalah to help us return to our innate balance and heal the influences of past wounds on ourselves, our families and our ancestral bloodlines. The extraordinary mythical perspective of the Kabbalah attunes us to the unseen dimensions, just as it clarifies our connection to the earth plane. It helps us to maximize our human instruments to be better conduits for the exuberant life force that wants to bring forth clarity, wisdom, and healing.
Our journey will be both scholarly and highly experiential, including healing practices to restore our nervous systems, guided meditations into the ancestral realm, and an end of year solstice ritual. We will explore teachings from the ancient Book of Formation (2nd century), the Book of Splendor (13th century), and Lurianic Kabbalah (16th century) as templates to understanding the soul’s journey on earth, the return of the Divine Feminine, and the work of Tikkun Olam, repairing the world.
