(CW: very discreet discussion of human physiology and intimacy, viewer discretion advised). • Rabbi Esther welcomes you to this special new series on ‘A Small Sanctuary’. • Dive in (pun intended) to discover the spiritual depths of the Jewish ritual bath; how it is used and understood traditionally as well as through a contemporary lens. Explore ideas of spiritual purification and transition, sacred intimacy and embodied holiness from an egalitarian, body positive and affirming perspective. • This introductory video launches key concepts such as what a mikveh is (both natural and human-made), where it appears in the Torah and how we can understand ritual purification today. It touches on the core uses of mikveh: for sacred intimacy in committed relationships, the marking of Shabbat and (High) Holy Days, conversion to Judaism and innovative practices around healing and closure. Each of these will be discussed in greater depth in follow-up videos. • #mikveh #mikvah #judaism #jewish #ritualbath #ritual #water #livingwater #livingwaters #conversion #conversiontojudaism
