Mussar Study Group
- Date: Wednesday, November 19, 2025
- Time: 9:30am–11:00am
Facilitator: Trish Goldin, Temple Israel congregant
Mussar is a system of introspective practices that can help you identify and break through the obstacles to your inherent holiness, using methods that are easy to integrate into daily life. The program laid out in the book Everyday Holiness: The Jewish Spiritual Path of Mussar focuses on 26 traits (middot) – such as loving-kindness, strength, generosity, compassion, honor, and equanimity – each of which takes center stage for a week of contemplation and exercises, in order to develop and refine that quality in yourself. Our study group meets every other Wednesday morning to work on one or more Mussar soul traits. Come join us, as we explore the wisdom of the books Every Day, Holy Day and Everyday Holiness, both by Alan Morinis, Soul Construction by Ruchi Koval, and Directing the Heart by Rabbi Yael Levy.
