Participants will be able to explore spiritual practices that may assist in healing spiritual, psychological and physical illness.

Nine workshops will include such topics as: “What the Soul Wants,” led by anthropologist and filmmaker Alan Morinis; “A Jewish Approach to Healing, Illness and Grief,” led by Rabbi Aliza Berk of the Bay Area Jewish Healing Center; and “Ensouling the Body, Embodying the Light,” led by Estelle Frankel, a psychotherapist, author and teacher of Jewish mysticism and meditation.

Supporting organizations of the conference include California Institute of Integral Studies, Bay Area Jewish Healing Center, Jewish Family and Children’s Services of the East Bay, Congregation Ner Tamid and Jewish Family and Children’s Services of San Francisco, the Peninsula, Marin and Sonoma Counties.
