It has been reproduced on book covers\, album art and celebrity tattoos. \nIt is\, in its way\, inescapable — but it is also just the beginning. \nIlanot (“trees”) — parchment diagrams that kabbalists produced across the Jewish world for over 500 years — took that familiar diagram and expanded it into something of an entirely different order: Instruments for learning Kabbalah\, for organizing its vast and intricate body of knowledge\, and for the ritual work of tikkun\, the kabbalistic practice of cosmic maintenance and repair. \nIn this unique five-session online course — led by Prof. J. H. (Yossi) Chajes of the University of Haifa\, author of “The Kabbalistic Tree” and founding director of the Ilanot Project — we will cover the earliest experiments in medieval kabbalistic manuscripts through the great classical scrolls of the Renaissance and the genre’s intersections with Christian Kabbalah\, magic and modern art. \n \nAlong the way\, Prof. Chajes will introduce and use his new interactive ilanot digital tool\, which will allow us to zoom in to see previously unseen aspects of Kabbalah tree documents that are hundreds of years old. The tool pairs high-resolution images with transcriptions\, translations\, and searchable visualized concepts\, enabling users to study\, compare\, and teach these complex works in entirely new ways. \nAnd don’t worry if you haven’t heard any of these terms before — no prior Kabbalah knowledge is required to enjoy this course! \n5 Mondays from 12:00 – 1:00 p.m. ET\nMay 11 – June 15 \nAll classes will be recorded and sent to registrants.

It’s not all in your head\, and you’re not alone. Jewish anxiety is not our fault. It’s an understandable response to fear\, uncertainty and anti-Jewish contempt. \nRabbi Caryn Aviv’s new book\, Unlearning Jewish Anxiety: How to Live with More Joy and Less Suffering explores what anxiety feels like and how it manifests in our lives. It also untangles some common Jewish anxiety habits about our safety\, worth and belonging in this difficult world. \nUsing neuroscience and Jewish wisdom\, Rabbi Dr. Caryn Aviv offers practical tools for spotting when we’re in a Jewish anxiety loop and how to respond with better habits. This interactive author event will describe what we face\, how we got here and how we can live more fully in the present moment with awareness\, curiosity\, self-compassion — and hopefully\, less suffering. \nRabbi Dr. Caryn Aviv will be joined by Lisa Keys\, Special Projects Editor at 70 Faces Media. \n \nCaryn Aviv is Rabbinic Director at Judaism Your Way in Denver\, CO. She’s a recovering academic in sociology and Jewish studies\, and a (mostly) formerly anxious Jew. Rabbi Caryn teaches and leads ritual that offer healing and compassion for Jews\, their loved ones and allies. Unlearning Jewish Anxiety is her fourth book. \nThis event is the next in a series of events geared toward helping you build resilience and connection in this moment\, brought to you by My Jewish Learning and Kveller\, with the support of UJA-Federation of New York.
