Elul Initiative Week 1

Happy Labor Day

Blog #1
(excerpted from ongoing work with the Rabbinic Writing Institute, led by Merle Feld)

 

1- Recall a situation or conjure an image, perhaps from this summer or this past year, in which you felt wonderfully authentic, alive, your best fullest self, a situation in which some special aspect of yourself was expressed. Maybe it was a public moment, an achievement, or maybe it was something small, subtle, something private only you were aware of… Tell the story, describe the situation, letting the details return to you in all their fullness….

 

Follow-up for 1- Now that you’re done writing it down, reflect on why/how the best part of you came out in that situation. What did you do to make that situation possible? And how can you be that fully realized, enlivened “you” more often in the coming year?
