There are an estimated 3000 languages [not including dialects] and more than 66,000 letters. But Hebrew is unique, considered by our tradition as the source of all language.
What intrigues us so much about the Hebrew letters and their symbolism?
Hebrew is called “Lashon HaKodesh - The Holy Language” for good reason: Within its letters are embedded the deepest truths of our reality. This course will be based on insights of our Sages over the last 4000 years on the Hebrew letters that I’ve found to be the most powerfully significant.
Different to past classes on the subject, this course will focus more experientially on how to spiritually connect through the path of sound; how contained in the letters is an energy that when accessed properly can catapult you to the highest of heights.

The Mystical Tradition of the Hebrew Alphabet
This course will provide you with a foundational knowledge of the Jewish mystical view of the Hebrew letters, and the know how to integrate that wisdom into your life today.
Kabbalah is the fourth dimension of Torah wisdom, an ancient Jewish tradition of the deepest insights into God's expression, interaction with the world, the purpose of the cosmos, and the meaning of life. The Mystical Sages teach that the universe was formed through ten Divine utterances of Hebrew. These letters are the spiritual DNA of everything we see and interact with.

The purpose of this course is to bring down deep mystical wisdom in a comprehensible, relatable way from your mind to your heart to your body into practical action.
Gain a foundational understanding the Hebrew letter system through the lens of the great Sages, elucidated through relatable analogies and examples culled from thousands of years of teachings. Enjoy a guided meditation based on Kabbalistic tradition to internalize the ideas learned.
