11 Pillars
Wellness
“Taking care of your body is a way of honoring God.”
– Rabbi Nachman of Breslov
Kabbalah teaches that wellness is a way to connect with the Divine and that the body is a vessel for the soul; taking care of our physical and mental health is essential for living a meaningful and purposeful life.
At Temple Beth El, we embrace a holistic approach to wellness, recognizing that it encompasses not only physical and mental aspects but also emotional, social, and spiritual dimensions. We believe that true wellness arises from nurturing all facets of our being. Through our diverse array of programs, we offer opportunities for personal growth, self-reflection, and community connection.
From engaging in meaningful prayer and meditation practices to fostering supportive relationships through our social events and support groups, we strive to create a nurturing space where individuals can thrive holistically. At Temple Beth El, we understand that when we prioritize and integrate wellness into our lives, we become more attuned to our authentic selves, strengthen our connection to the Divine, and embody the teachings of Kabbalah and Mussar in our daily lives.
