Latest Inspiration & Resources
Parshah • January 2023
Vaeira – Breathe Easy
When Moshe Rabbeinu first approached his enslaved brothers and sisters, they ignored him. Rashi notes their breathing was stressfully shallow and short. A person of faith sidesteps anxiety and stress to move forward in life, as did the Jewish people who regained belief after the ten plagues.

Vayeishev – Cultivating Beauty
Yosef is described as a ‘handsome’ man, referring to his inner beauty. By evolving your inner qualities, you leverage your capacity to influence the world for the better

Vayishlach – Packing for Journey
Yaakov’s stay with Lavan is described as ‘garti’ – a temporary stay or estrangement. He never viewed amassing wealth with the rich Lavan as his goal, and viewed his stay as temporary, and remained estranged from Lavan’s values, maintaining Taryag Mitzvot.

Parshah • November 2022
Toldot – Reason or Commitment

Where Seekers Meet
Become a member of the Spiritgrow community
Members of Spiritgrow are people who aspire to live a life that integrates Jewish spirituality and contemporary wellbeing principles. As a community we are creating a hub for all Jewish seekers who wish to deepen their knowledge and imbue their Jewish experiences with the spiritual wisdoms.
