And our common longing comes from the same source, call it spirit, g-d, the psyche, or nature. Ironically, that source is ultimately what we long for. And the answer to any core question we have – who we are, what we should do, and how we should do it – arises when we turn inwards and follow our longing all the way back to its source. Our personal truth and our ultimate truth align, and we come home”.\nFor Daniella’s full bio visit: https://growawake.org/teaching ( https://growawake.org/teaching )\n																														\nAdam Moskowitz\nAdam helps individuals, groups, organizations, schools, and companies grow and transform through mindfulness and embodiment-based practices. Words that illustrate his north star are beingness, presence, freedom, and love.\nFor Adam’s full bio visit: https://www.onemindful.com/about ( https://www.onemindful.com/about )\nRefund Policy\nTickets are transferrable but non-refundable, except due to illness. \nCOVID Protocols\nOur Covid policy is as follows:\nChochmat HaLev, in consultation with our medical advisor and based on community survey results, will discontinue masking requirements for attendance at events.
