What Is Jewish Spiritual Direction?
Spiritual Direction is a relationship in which one dedicates a regular period of time to the exploration of the divine presence in one’s life. Spiritual companions (or “directors”) support individuals as they seek to deepen their relationship with the holy. This practice is a potent tool for helping individuals notice the sacred dimension that underlies all life, open to experiences of oneness, and recognize the ways in which they may be guided or accompanied along their life journey.
Responding powerfully to the deep spiritual hunger felt by so many in our time, Jewish Spiritual Direction helps the seeker explore Jewish pathways to a nourishing relationship with the divine and with Jewish tradition.
“In working with people to bring them to themselves, one must work at great depth,
a depth scarcely imaginable.” - Rabbi Nachman of Bratzlav
