During the High Holiday season, we reflect on those areas in our lives where we would like to enhance. Many of us make commitments at Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur that we find difficult to sustain during the New Year.

In this Mussar course we will focus on 6 middot that will guide us in maintaining our steadiness as we encounter challenges to our intentions.

Mussar classes have limited registration in order to provide an intimate class experience. This class is limited to 8 participants. Registration will close ONE WEEK before classes are scheduled to begin. If more students register than can be accommodated, instructors will hold a lottery to choose students. You will be notifed a few days before the class is scheduled to begin to confirm your registration.

Nancy Weiss, LICSW, is a depth psychotherapist, spiritual director and Mussar facilitator dedicated to helping others discover unique pathways to their soul’s expression. She facilitates local and online Mussar groups and is a member of the Facilitator Development Council. As Coordinator and Trainer for Manchim, the Facilitator Training Program for The Mussar Institute, she worked closely with Alan Morinis to create the current Manchim curriculum. In recent years, she has had the privilege of training both Caryl Shaw and Jay Gainsboro. Nancy collaborated with 2 Mussar practitioners to create a deck of 90 Mussar cards titled, “Lights of Mussar™ Cards for Creating a Balanced Life.” The cards help to bring conscious attention to our spiritual curriculum and to relationships among the middot. A collage artist, poet and SoulCollage® facilitator, Nancy guides people in bringing an expressive voice to the Mussar traits and spiritual principles. Her collage art appears in Midrashic Mirrors, which illustrates the richness of creating art to reflect the essence of each Torah portion.
