Returning To Our Highest Selves - Teshuva

"I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way-things I had no words for." - Georgia O'Keefe

 I enjoy the period between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur each as a time of reflection and evaluation. It is the time to ask for forgiveness for both what we have and haven't in the past year. Tikkun magazine provides a workbook to be used by both Jewish and non-Jewish readers

Excerpt from HIGH HOLIDAY SUPPLEMENT From Tikkun magzine online:

An invitation to all people to join with the Jewish people
in using the period September 18 (RoshHashanah—the
Day of Remembering who we have been this last year)
through September 28 (Yom Kippur—the Day of Atone-
ment) to rethink our personal and communal reality and
engage with the process of teshuva (returning to our highest selves
and away from the ways we’ve missed the mark in this past year) is
outlined in the pages of this workbook.

The workbook provides questions like: What is spiritually out of alignment
in my relationships with…; Are You Taking Enough Time to Nourish Your Soul and Body? and offers outlines, suggestions, processes to assist people in self-evaluation.
