Rabbi Tirzah will be guiding a Jewish Ancestral Healing Retreat at Isabella Freedman Jewish Retreat Center.

The past does not simply disappear. The rich cultural wisdom of our ancestors, as well as their wounds, intertwine within us to form the patterns of who we are and who we are becoming. When family members suffer traumas—such as war, terror, discrimination, displacement, mental illness, or early death—painful patterns can get frozen in time, passing to members of the next generations. Such patterns can act like magnets, profoundly influencing our lives and the lives of future generations. However, it is in our power to transform our families’ traumas into blessings! Ritual, meditation, time in nature, and ceremonial family constellation work compose the elements of this restorative and healing weekend. This retreat also serves as a prerequisite for the upcoming practitioner training for ancestral healing to commence in the fall, 2020.

Stay tuned for revised program dates for later in 2020.
