02-03-20 Rabbi Tirzah Firestone: Wounds to Wisdom
Our past does not simply disappear. The painful history of our ancestors and their rich cultural wisdom intertwine within us to create the patterns of our future. Even when past trauma remains unspoken or has long been forgotten, it becomes part of us and our children?a legacy of both strength and woundedness that shapes our lives. Seven principles emerge from these wise narratives?powerful prescriptive tools that speak to anyone dealing with the effects of past injury. At the broadest level, these principles are directives for staying morally awake in a world rife with terror.
Rabbi Dr. Tirzah Firestone, PhD, is an author, psychotherapist, and founding rabbi of Congregation Nevei Kodesh in Boulder, Colorado. Widely known for her groundbreaking work on Kabbalah, depth psychology and the re-integration of Feminine Wisdom into Judaism, Tirzah lectures and teaches embodied spiritual and ancient wisdom practices honed to assist us at this critical time in world history. Her latest book, Wounds into Wisdom has been called a “tour de force” that “helps readers uncover suffering and use it to help others—the final stage of healing.” —Gloria Steinem. www.TirzahFirestone.com
