Prayer and Destiny
Prayer and Destiny explores the mystery of prayer and how it is a potent tool for personal growth and change. It examines the difference between prayer versus visualization and affirmation and how the latter can be incorporated into the prayer process . The course focuses on personal prayer but its instructions can readily be incorporated into liturgy.
This kabbalistic method of prayer is a most powerful tool for refining will. And that is the primary work of a spiritual path.
Prayer and Destiny is a 20 week course.

Enlightened Body
The Enlightened Body examines the difference between mitzvah and meditation as spiritual practices. What happens inside, what happens in the universe when I do a mitzvah versus when I meditate? In the end, the ideal, is to incorporate both.
Unlike meditation, nearly every mitzvah requires the body to move and expend effort. These Divinely specified deeds grease neural pathways that bring our instincts and reflexes into line with spiritual law.
Enlightened Body is a 12 week course.
