Isn’t there something more?” The Kabbalah of Meaning is a new six-session JLI course exploring the Jewish answer to that question. What are we really searching for—and where can it be found? Drawing on Kabbalah and centuries of Jewish wisdom, we’ll uncover the essential building blocks of a deeply meaningful life. We’ll explore how purpose can be found in our work, relationships, challenges, accomplishments, and even the ordinary routines that fill our days. You don’t have to revamp your life. You don’t need to meditate on a mountaintop. You simply need a new lens through which to see the rich world of meaning already woven into every part of your life. Thoughtful, practical, and surprisingly relevant, this course offers fresh perspectives and useful tools for living with greater clarity, connection, and intention. Try 1st class free. No previous Jewish learning required. Come as you are—and bring your questions.
