Every Jewish festival contains a special energy, and the energy of Tishrei is the month that we co-create ourselves in readiness to receive the abundant blessings Hashem wants to bestow on us for the year 5780. The whole process starts from Rosh Hashana to Yom Kippur then to Succot and culminating in Simchat Torah, in a fabulous transformation of each being, into the best version of ourselves.

Food:

The retreat will serve 3 healthy meals a day, using the finest organic ingredients we can find. Fresh and healthy, mainly plant and grain based menus’ will be offered. Feel free to bring your own snacks where necessary. So you can use this time as a partial detox from any unhealthy foods you might have got used to.

Kashrut:

The meals will be prepared by one of Tzfat’s leading new chefs, who used to own a Kosher restaurant in the USA, but there will not be a mashgiach on site.

Participants:

You will be sharing this magical experience with a selected number of other like-minded participants from across the world. The retreat is open to all ages and all status.

Facilitators:

Eliezer Newman:

Our beloved Eliezer Newman will guide us through a series of experiential sessions aimed at helping us to visualise our true potential. We will also learn to recognise the fears and constraints we are still holding on to, that no longer serve us, and to help us let them go. This is Eliezer’s 6^th Retreat with us and we keep invite him back because he is so good at gently allowing us to perceive ourselves from a new perspective of clarity. This is an intimate group and we often learn more from the sharing of other participants.

Rabbi Alon Rom: Rabbi Rom has just opened the Kavana Centre in Tzfat – aimed at teaching Advanced Kabbalah in English for those interested in understanding the deeper concepts of Kabbalah. He combines his teachings with excellent practical Meditation sessions, which allow us to integrate what we learn into our daily program.

Rabbi Shalom Pasternak: Rabbi Pasternak is head of the wonderful English speaking Yeshiva Temimi Derech in Tzfat. He has the wonderful ability of explaining very complex ideas in a very understanding way. We are so grateful he is able to be part of our program.

Shalom: Shalom is a very talented musician and composer. He is in the process of producing his own album and has led several Birthright groups. His soul flies when he sings.

Why Tzfat:

Tzfat is one of the spiritual capitals of the world. The ancient mystics describe it as one of the gateways between heaven and earth. It is where the Kabbalah and the Shulchan Aruch were brought into the world. It has a population of 30,000 and visited by over 1.2 million people each year. Everyone that comes to Tzfat feels the spiritual energy here, whether they are religious, or non-religious, Jewish or non-Jewish. Tzfat was one of the 42 cities of refuge, one of the Levite cities and it welcomed all travellers without judgment. It’s a perfect destination for all those looking for a deeper spiritual connection.

Come and break through the walls of our resistance, so that we can bask in Hashem’s blessings, and become the awesome divine beings we were born to be. I really hope you can join us and give yourself this most precious of gifts!
