SUMMARY:Elul Spiritual Challenge with Rabbi Susan
DESCRIPTION:Sign up for the Elul Spiritual Challenge\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nIn the month of Elul*\, before the year renews on Rosh Hashanah\, we have the opportunity to prepare – individually and in community – for the transition and transformation of a new cycle of the calendar\, the seasons\, and the moon. This intentional preparation deepens the experience and possibilities inside the High Holy Days. \n\n\n\nThe Elul Spiritual Challenge is a week-by-week offering of practices during the month of Elul which begins on Aug 24. This year’s theme is Compassionate Attention. We will explore attention in multiple ways: what we are tending to and what we are avoiding\, our social media presence\, and our attention to transitions throughout our day and year. \n\n\n\nWe will practice this through a series of videos from Rabbi Susan and a live offering from Rabbi Susan and Avriel Epps\, PhD on Zoom. Dr. Epps is data scientist and Postdoctoral Fellow at the Cornell University CATLab\, who will dive into the spiritual concept of Teshuvah for Your Digital Self: Owning Your Data Story in Elul. \n\n\n\nNOTE: When you sign up for the ESC you DO NOT have to sign up separately for the Avriel Epps Zoom event. \n\n\n\nYou are encouraged to support yourself through this Elul offering in chevruta/study partnerships. You can opt to be paired with someone when you sign up OR enter the challenge with a partner of your choosing. \n\n\n\nWhen: Sundays starting August 24th including an online offering with Avriel Sunday\, August 31st \n\n\n\nLocation: We’ll have a password protected page up on the Nefesh website that you’ll have access to starting August 24th and throughout High Holy Days. Information about access will be shared with registrants soon. \n\n\n\nPrice: Sliding scale $36-54. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. \n\n\n\n*This year\, the month of Elul (the final month of the Jewish calendar\, year 5784) is from sundown on August 24th to Erev Rosh Hashanah on September 22nd.
