A Journey of Personal Integration
Join Aryeh Ben David as we explore how to reassess our spiritual path at every stage of life, realigning our minds, hearts, aspirations, and actions so that holiness can thrive.

Level: Intermediate / Advanced |
Recommended Experience: Basic Mussar Knowledge |
Format: 8 Sessions (4 Teaching Sessions and 4 Processing Sessions)

Aryeh Ben David, a distinguished educator and the founder of Ayeka: Center for Soulful Education, has pioneered a distinctive educational approach. Through partnering with Day Schools across North America, he empowers faculties and students to enhance their personal connection to Jewish life.
Course Overview:
At each stage in our lives, our personal integrity will manifest differently. How can we escape a skewed subjectivity when we reflect on our lives and our individual spiritual curriculum? It is so difficult. What worked successfully in one decade of our lives may not be the ideal way for the ensuing years. We continually need to reappraise how we value and harmonize our minds, hearts, aspirations, and bodies.
"An individual needs to pay special attention to one’s intellect, emotions, imagination, and actions. When there is a breakdown between these four elements, then destruction finds its place to dwell - and on the basis of these four elements - intellect, emotion, imagination, action - holiness ascends."
- Rav Kook, Eight Diaries, 1:247
