Mussar of the Earth
This mini, 4-part series, is an invitation to explore ways in which Mussar practice can be a powerful tool in bringing our lives back to alignment with the rest of (non-human) life on earth. Our joint Torah study will mainly dig into two concepts: Kavod (dignity) and Achrayut (responsibility), and will be informed by Mussar as well as eco-spiritual teachings.
