SPECIAL MEMBER NEEDS/OFFERINGS
Making Parenting A
Spiritual Practice
A very special class at
Elat Chayyim, August 20-26 - Family Week, taught
by Rabbis Victor and Nadya Gross.
Children come into this
world bearing the wisdom gained in lifetimes lived
before and the memory of God breathing life into them once again. Their
greatest gift to us is to open our eyes to the unlimited potential and
purity of the universe. Our greatest gift to them is to overcome our
controlling need to shape them in our image.
The spiritual practice of
parenting seeks to create a safe, loving and supportive environment
where these young beings can grow in conscious partnership with their
Divine intention. When we learn to parent in this way, our homes are
defined by love, authenticity and meaning.
Come learn this practice, sourced in our rabbinic and mystical
tradition, and find new joy and purpose in your relationships with your
children.
