Love, Loss and Letting Go<br />
(NEW: full day workshop)<br />
Sunday 10:00 am-4:00 pm<br />
(with breaks; dairy lunch included)<br />
Nov. 25<br />
Most of us think of true love as<br />
unconditional, defying reason,<br />
transcending time, even eternal.<br />
According to King Solomon, true love is<br />
“as strong as death” (Song of Songs 8:6);<br />
for one would willingly die than give it up.<br />
Yet all of us have experienced the loss of<br />
love. Is such loss real or illusory? We<br />
certainly feel and experience its pain. Does<br />
healing from loss require that we forget the<br />
love that was? What does it mean to<br />
mourn the loss of love? The Sages taught<br />
(Moed Katan 25b): “Mourning is for the<br />
living and not for what is lost....”<br />
PRIVATE CONSULTATION<br />
<strong>Rabbi</strong> <strong>Fleer</strong>’s unique approach, sometimes<br />
including guided imagery, helps people get<br />
in touch with deep truths about themselves,<br />
release old pain, and open to new<br />
possibilities. <strong>Rabbi</strong> <strong>Fleer</strong> creates a safe space<br />
for emotional honesty and subtly brings<br />
awareness of G-d to the healing process.<br />
According to Jewish tradition, the purpose<br />
of mourning is to heal enough to continue<br />
to fully live and participate in life. Loss<br />
can have a broad personal interpretation,<br />
including of a loved one, one's health,<br />
long-time home, wealth, youth, a beloved<br />
pet, or a memory of a time or place<br />
meaningful to only you. Join <strong>Rabbi</strong> <strong>Fleer</strong><br />
in this extraordinary workshop which<br />
includes guided-imagery to explore love<br />
and loss, mourning and living after loss.<br />

inappropriate boldness or rudeness. But it<br />
can also be a complimentary term. Rebbe<br />
Nachman of Breslov explained the<br />
concept of holy chutzpah, the kind of<br />
boldness we each need to have in order to<br />
follow through on our highest intentions<br />
no matter what others may say or think. In<br />
fact, it takes a certain boldness for us, as<br />
finite beings, to open our mouths and pray<br />
to the Creator of the universe. Join <strong>Rabbi</strong><br />
<strong>Fleer</strong> as we explore Rebbe Nachman’s<br />
inspiring teachings on this topic.<br />
