Letting go of criticism and judgment of oneself and others
We all have people in our lives who have hurt us emotionally, and all of us have, at one time or another, hurt others, too. So how, then, do we bring ourselves to a place of forgiveness? When we're angry and hurt, how do we let go in order to heal? To forgive does not mean to absolve, and accepting "what is" is sometimes our greatest challenge.
This is the season of the Jewish year when we focus on forgiveness, as we prepare for the New Year.
Join psychologist and spiritual counselor Dr. Gail Albert, as we explore our questions through teaching, discussions and experiential exercises and look together at the process of letting go and forgiving in a welcoming, safe, and confidential setting. Open to people of all faiths.
Gail Albert, Ph.D. is a licensed psychologist, author, and certified teacher of Jewish mystical and meditative practice. She has facilitated groups for all faiths since 2003. Her first book, Matters of Chance, was a National Book Award finalist and Book of the Month Club alternate for fiction. Her third book is Mending the Heart, Tending the Soul: Directions to the Garden Within, a guide to personal change on the spiritual path. It explores a mystical reading of the Torah/Pentateuch and offers contemplative meditations for each week's Torah reading, along with Albert's own experience with each meditation
