Fire and Flow: Creativity and Mindfulness is a year long journey into the heart of creative and spiritual practice — a space where mindfulness and artistic expression meet to spark insight and joy, presence, purpose, and connection. Rooted in the idea that each of us is made in the Divine image, this course will help each person tap into their innate capacity to create, whether through visual art, writing, ritual creation, prayer, or more.
Rather than focusing on outcomes or product, Fire and Flow will offer the space to wonder, reflect, and reconnect with the Source of creativity. We’ll explore dimensions of the creative process that can be applied to life off-the-page, cultivate practices for more mindful living, and discover how creative engagement can deepen our sense of meaning and connection to Judaism — individually and in community.
Whether you’re a lifelong artist or creatively curious, this class is a chance to rekindle your inner fire and move through the world with more flow.
DISCOVER how creative practice can be an exercise in mindfulness.
AWAKEN your creative impulse to renew your body, mind, heart, and soul.
EXPAND your resilience and compassion by engaging with creativity as a healing and grounding practice.
CULTIVATE practical tools to move between focused creation and receptive flow.
DEEPEN your capacity for presence as you work and play with the materials and the page.
CONNECT with the source of creativity and experience the feeling of creation flowing through you.
