Summary
Learn Integral Jewish Meditation free: https://www.torahofawakening.com In this episode we explore a beautiful and incredibly helpful teaching from Rabbi Yosef Yitzhak Shneerson about how meditation really comes in two different stages. If you understand these stages, then meditation is almost effortless, but if you don’t, it can seem almost impossible. We then dip in experientially through a guided meditation based on the Hebrew letter Mem, with Rabbi Brian Yosef Schachter-Brooks. Opening song Hashkiveinu and piano improvisation also by Brian Yosef. Hashkiveinu is from the album Ayn Od by BRIAH, and features the vocals of Jeannette Ferber and Bon Singer, along with Sam “Shmully” Markewich on drums, Joshua Miele on bass, and Lior Tzarfaty on guitar.
