How do we stop and notice that incredible, holy things happen to us every day.
My name is Rabbi Lauren Holtzblatt and this is Awake - finding the holy in the every day. On this show, I bring the teachings from Jewish mystical texts into everyday life in less than 10 minutes. When you listen, I hope you will take a few minutes to pause and to open yourself to the possibility that holiness, connection and presence are around us all of the time.
As I spent time with a congregant who was recovering from an illness, she told me that she was drowning in spaghetti. This reminded me of finding a balance between hesed (love) and gevurah (justice) - how to receive love and set healthy boundaries at the same time.
