Together, we will be exploring ideas in Jewish and Chassidic thought through the lens of real people’s experiences. How do they weave the sacred into the fabric of their lives?

    Sacrifice or Desire? Rethinking the Foundation of Faith with Chana Silberstein

    An exploration of Jewish sacrifice with Chana Silberstein, through the lens of the Akedah. How can we mature in our faith, so that we make choices rooted in a deep safety with G-d? What is the ideal motivator of our lives, a sense of sacrifice or desire? And how do we process the inevitable pitfalls of our carefully chosen paths? Chana Silberstein came to Ithaca in 1984 with her husband to establish a Chabad house for Jewish students and community members. She serves in the role of Education Director at Chabad of Cornell. Chana holds a PhD in Psychology from Cornell University and is certified in Clinical Pastoral Education. When Chana is not busy running the Chabad house, she consults on educational projects for Jewish institutions. You can contact Chana at cs32@cornell.edu.

    Q & A with Tzivie: Is Therapeutic Language Authentic to the Tanya?, Religious Guilt, Plant Medicine, and Healing the Root of our Struggles

    A recording of a live, follow up conversation with Tzivie Greenberg, where we discussed podcast listeners' questions, as well as questions that came in from the audience as we spoke. Some questions that were asked: Is therapeutic language authentic to the Tanya? What are some practical ways to live in a way that emanates from the light of our souls? How can we find a healthy balance between being and doing when doing inner work, and how can we differentiate between recognizing our genuine capacity versus a fear of stepping into our soul's mission? Other topics that were discussed: religious guilt, plant medicine, and healing the root of our struggles. This episode is a follow up conversation to the episode titled 'It Could Be So Much Better'.
