Judaism As A Spiritual Practice
This is my (not fully complete ) annotated bibliography on the most powerful, transformative books that I read and listened to while in Kohenet Hebrew Priestess Training.
During this training ( I’m still in it! until 2023), my relationship to Judaism deepened and evolved into my foundational spiritual practice.
Integrating, weaving and embodying these practices into daily life, rooted from my ancestral lineage has been potent medicine for my own healing and awakening.
May these words / texts/ teachings inspire, encourage and enlighten your life as well. Amen. Selah. Blessings on the journey…...
Just for Fun!
