  • Until We Meet Again: The Jewish Art of Sacred Goodbyes
    Jun 12 2025
    For this, the final episode of this podcast, Rabbi Angela Buchdahl explores the Jewish approach to goodbyes, revealing how Hebrew farewells like lehitra'ot ("until we meet again") and hadran alach ("I will return to you") express hope for reunion rather than finality. Reflecting on traditional blessings recited when seeing someone after a long separation, she notes that how Jewish tradition doesn't take reunions for granted. Join her for a short meditation on honoring both the difficulty of parting and the sacred nature of return.

  • The Wheat Will Grow Again
    Jun 5 2025
    Join Rabbi Angela Buchdahl for a short teaching and meditation for finding hope amidst tragedy. In this episode, she weaves together the story of a young Israeli scientist, Zechariah Haber, who was killed in the current war while researching crop resilience, and "The Wheat Grows Again," a song that emerged from devastating losses in Israel in 1973. The teaching explores how Haber's doctoral thesis, completed posthumously by his friend and beginning with lyrics about wheat growing again after loss, offers a metaphor for choosing smaller, sustainable solutions over seeking perfect answers. Join Rabbi Buchdahl for a short practice for developing resilience that comes by nurturing what grows naturally and the legacy we inherit.

  • Lift Up the Head of Every Person
    May 29 2025
    In this episode, Rabbi Angela Buchdahl explores why Jewish tradition forbids directly counting people, requiring census-taking through numbering coins instead of individuals. She connects this ancient wisdom to modern dehumanization, explaining how the the Torah's instructions to "lift up the heads" means to see each person's unique gifts rather than as a number. Join her for a short guided meditation for recognizing the sacred worth of every soul — including our own.
