On the Threshold of Reemergence with Yael Flusberg
So here we find ourselves. On the threshold. Emerging from an historic period of time in which we all have something or someone to mourn. Surrounded by this sacred SVIVAH community of fiercely tender women*, let’s find our way back to sure-footing – a return guided by what our ancestors called “binat halev”, the wisdom of the heart.
Join us and Yael Flusberg, yoga therapist and resiliency coach, to distill our path over the threshold where we now stand. Yael is one of the most skilled and generous facilitators of personal thought and exploration.
Bring paper, a pen, and something to color with (pencils, marker, etc). If desired, there will be opportunity to share in small groups and in the collective. As always, you’re welcome to simply be a witness. Expect an introspective, experiential-rich evening together, and know that you will not need to share, unless you choose to do so. We’ve all traversed so much to get to here; we just want to be in this moment together.
As always, SVIVAH welcomes anyone wishing to be included in a circle of Jewish women. Come when you can; stay till you can’t. RSVP to receive the Zoom link to join.
*As always, SVIVAH welcomes anyone who wants to be included in a circle of Jewish women*. If you want to be here, we want you to be here - and welcome.
SVIVAH is dependent on the generosity of those who choose to invest in a powerful community of women. Cost should never be a barrier to participation in anything SVIVAH, but if you can help us show respect to our speakers/facilitators for their time and expertise, we would be so very grateful. www.svivah.org/donate

Yael Flusberg’s meditation journey began as a small child attending yeshiva, mesmerized with the rich storytelling and re-imagining that goes into every single sentence in the Bible. She gravitated toward practices like kavanah, which translates as “intention” and is about both the mindset one should be in when engaged in learning and rituals (“with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might”) as well as training yourself to see past the literal into the underlying layers of reality. In her 20s while working as a community organizer and social justice advocate for immigrant and refugee communities, she pursued studies in a range of mindfulness technologies, ranging from Kabbalah to Q’ero Andean to Terevada to Tibetan Buddhism to Yoga. These days, Yael is a sought-after yoga therapist, writer and coach who helps people find resiliency and relief in the midst of transition and loss, and in the aftermath of trauma.
