Gate to the Heart In this class, you’ll combine text study, introspective conversation, and simple meditation to introduce the basic concepts of Kabbalah and to experience the reality those ideas describe. Work from the book “Gate to the Heart” by Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi and explore ‘four worlds’, Sefirot, levels of the soul, and different modes of encounter with The Divine. No experience with either Kabbalah or meditation is required, only openness and curiosity. Wednesdays 7:00 - 8:00 pm 8 weeks: October 14 – December 23 Cost: $180 (plus cost of book) Instructor: Rabbi Shlomo Schachter CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

Hormonal health isn’t a conversation relegated to the future or the past; it matters throughout our lives. Jewish tradition teaches that seeking wisdom is itself a sacred act. For generations, women have shared stories and advice about hormones, menopause and aging. Now, that wisdom can be rooted in science. Join Erie County Health Commissioner Dr. Gale Burstein in conversation with internationally renowned physician Dr. Sarah Berga for an enlightening discussion about what the science really says about women’s hormonal health. Together, they’ll challenge common misconceptions, explore hormone therapy and empower women with evidence-based information to make informed decisions about their health and well-being—at every age and stage.
