Rituals and Resilience
Event Information
About this Event
This event marks the launch of the Wellspring Project (previously Mikveh Project UK), a planned space for people regardless of age, gender or religion to benefit from the powerful Jewish ritual of immersion.
With the rollout of the new vaccines, January may feel like the perfect time for a new start. But these are still challenging times and this January 18th (Blue Monday) is traditionally one of the lowest points for many people. So how do we mark the trauma of the past year and make 2021 a year of healing and recovery?
Join us in hearing from distinguished author Anita Diamant and inspiring activist Jonny Benjamin MBE in a discussion chaired by Rabbi Miriam Berger. They will they share their thoughts on why we need a new community mikveh in London, and the role rituals can play in helping us begin to move forwards with our lives and help develop resilience for when times are tough.
Update: We are delighted that the groundbreaking Rabba Dina Brawer will also join the event.
