Here’s What People Who’ve Established a Jewish Mindfulness Meditation Practice Tell Us About How It’s Transformed Their Lives

“IJS has changed my life. I know it sounds dramatic. But I want everyone to know what I now know - our Jewish Hassidic wisdom has deepened my prayer, my meditation and my mindset. Even more essentially, because of IJS I have changed the way I speak to myself, which has changed everything.”
Aliza Kline, CEO of OneTable

“IJS introduced me to a form of Jewish spirituality that has enhanced my rabbinate and my life in such profound ways. I’m so grateful to pay it forward to my community.”
