Nurturing body and mind...

The Kavanah Couples is a chance for couples aged 45-65 to get away from the demands of normal life and enjoy time and space along with other Jewish couples of the same age. Each month we'll gather together and experience life with our hands, minds, and bodies. We'll meet at different locations to create, strengthen, explore, and create meaning with each other. And, we'll get to leave with a piece of our own making!

The Conversation Project

Tuesday, Mar 25th 7:00p to 8:00p"While 92% of Americans say it's important to discuss their wishes for end-of-life care, only 32% have had such a conversation." The Conversation Project guides us in starting those conversations, first with ourselves, then with our loved ones and our medical team. In this eight-week course, we'll spend time removing the taboo of talking about death, we'll verbalize what we want for ourselves, and we'll gain skills on how to communicate with the people who will be responsible for our care, including completing our own Living Will with the guidance of a legal expert.
