Hanging Laundry in the Rain

I apologize for the temporary hiatus in the blog postings, but I’ve been busy with a new BRI project, the twice-weekly inspirational emails through narrowbridge.org. (You can sign up if you haven’t yet.) I’m really enjoying it and getting a lot of inspiration myself, so it’s all to the good. Today, I told my husband … Continue Reading

What a Tikkun!

One of the great things about living within our particular Breslov community is a kind of shared spiritual language rooted in Rebbe Nachman’s teachings. There’s something inexpressibly relieving about running into a friend who, after asking me how I’m doing, understands exactly what I mean when I smile, raise my eyebrows, and nod in a … Continue Reading

Simchas Torah…All Year Long

“Once upon a time, there was a great city, and it was surrounded by an insurmountable and unshakable wall. All of the kings wanted to conquer this city and they tried with all their might, but they did not succeed. Their legions of soldiers fell victim to the arrows shot from the city’s wall.

“What Are You Doing for Rosh Hashanah?”

8

Here’s one of the hot topics that floats around in Breslov women’s circles this time of year: “What are you doing for Rosh Hashanah?” At least, I hear it a lot. Forget about what I’m doing (which is my own story); let’s just consider some possibilities… a)      You are married, with or without children, with … Continue Reading

For Breslov Woman – A New Series

29

I’ve been asked to contribute a regular blog on women and Breslov, which seems a bit like stepping out into uncharted territory. But one thing we learn from Rabbeinu is the value of azus d’kedushah, holy chutzpah, and if I’m going to throw myself into the task I ought to do it courageously. So I’ll … Continue Reading
