SUMMARY:Joy-ish: Joy isn't optional. Judaism has known this forever
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, June 23 at 6:00 p.m. ET \nA conversation with Carla Naumburg and Molly Tolsky\, Editorial Director\, Culture & Lifestyle at 70 Faces Media \nThere’s a reason Jews say l’chaim (to life!) and not l’simcha (to joy!). Turns out\, the path to more joy runs straight through the rest of our lives — gratitude and grief\, connection and play\, learning and giving. \nIn this talk\, Carla Naumburg\, clinical social worker and author of Kveller’s email series Joy-ish and Calm-ish\, draws on Jewish wisdom and practical psychology to explore simple\, daily practices for increasing our joy. They may sound like a lot — but they’re more feasible and powerful than you think. \nCarla Naumburg\, PhD\, LICSW\, is the author of five books\, including the bestselling How to Stop Losing Your Sh*t With Your Kids (Workman\, 2019) and a forthcoming non-fiction introduction to Judaism for middle-grade readers (Workman Kids\, 2027). Carla lives in Massachusetts with her husband and two daughters.  . \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.
