Serving Hashem with Joy

Rena led a guided meditation session focused on mindfulness and emotional awareness. She instructed participants to focus on their breath, the sensations in their body, and the sounds around them. Participants were then guided to notice their thoughts and emotions, and how they relate to their overall mood. Rena suggested that participants imagine serving Hashem with happiness, exploring what that would look and feel like. The session ended with an exercise in holding both the participants’ current emotions and the idea of serving Hashem with joy, highlighting the paradox of opposites coexisting.
