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.
Becoming a member of Spiritgrow is more than joining a community or gaining access to activities, it enables the projects and programs that empower people to live with greater fulfilment, happiness and wholeness.
About us
After decades of lecturing on Jewish spirituality across the globe and a three-hour meeting with the Dalai Lama, Laibl Wolf intuited that the world needed a Spiritgrow. We are the worlds first Holistic Jewish Centre that offers library, informal learning and community facilities & resources for any seeker wishing to explore the Jewish spiritual approach to life, wellbeing and relationships. After 15 years, Spiritgrow has become a global leader and model for 21st century Jewish centres and experiences.
