Happy Returns?
After more than a year of lockdowns and virtual social interactions, a return to our pre-pandemic “normal” lives may feel daunting, exhilarating, and anxiety-producing all at once. As we navigate this unfamiliar terrain, Rabbi Aaron offers some Jewish wisdom to provide helpful perspectives and frameworks for an intentional re-entry.

Start off the work day with some spiritual work as we come together to connect and reflect. Rabbi Aaron leads a few of the traditional morning prayers, shares a couple of kavvanot (intentions), and leads a short journaling exercise.
What it Takes: How to Read Hebrew
In this introductory-level class, demystify the Hebrew alphabet as you learn the letters, vowels, and some words commonly found in Jewish life.
How to Say Goodbye
From havdallah at the end of Shabbat to the prayer we say after a meal, Judaism asks us to mark the ending with as much ceremony as we do the beginning. In Rabbi Shira’s final class at Sixth & I, share personal stories and study Jewish texts on how to say goodbye, especially when the future is uncertain. Bring tissues.
