Events and Classes
Hikebodedut Club
The Hikebodedut Club meets on Sunday mornings at a local trailhead. We learn a little bit of Jewish wisdom, exploring the traditional meditative practice of “hitbodedut” to frame our hike, and then explore the trail together.
Popularized by the 18th-19th century mystic Reb Nachman of Breslov, hitbodedut traditionally refers to secluding oneself in nature to speak out loud to the Divine. Our club requires neither experience nor beliefs— just a willingness to connect to yourself, nature, and each other!
All details (location, hike difficulty, etc.) will be sent out via our Whatsapp group. To register for that, please email bnaiorcomm@gmail.com.
Hikes will resume in the Spring of 2025. Stay tuned!
Chavayah Kids
This is the “Hebrew school” I wish I went to when I was growing up!
🌻 🧵 🪕All sessions are two hours and include earth-based experiential learning, plus crafts and music.
🌿 Not only how to shake lulav and etrog - how they grow and what the harvest time meant to our ancestors.
🌝 All things Levanah - the moon in our tradition, how and why she’s important and rituals of blessing to honor her.
🕎 A meaningful Chanukkah celebration - crafting from recycled materials, dreidel dancing, being a light in the world.
🌀 Composting as spiritual practice - what blessings we can say and how we can connect to our own transformation.
And so much more!!
🌎 For more details, send Reb Ariel a message.

There is a teaching that each of us is a letter in the Torah. Our lives, our stories and our questions are the scroll unfolding. This is not happening in some distant time and place; these are archetypal energies that are present right here & now.
This free, bi-monthly class will be a mix of study & practice - we’ll open with an original chant from the parshah and explore our sacred text through the lenses of dreamwork, mindfulness & mythology. This is a series, but each session stands on its own. Join for one, some, or all. Sessions will be recorded.
Dates: Tuesdays, 7-8:00 pm
12/10, 12/24, 1/7, 1/28, 2/11, 2/18, 3/4, 3/18, 4/1, 4/29, 5/6, 5/20
