New Course
Abraham: A Paragon of Love and Unity

Rabbi Igal and co-leader, Martin Bruders, invite you to join them for a six-lesson course. Each meeting will include teaching lessons and text study (led by Igal), meditations (led by Martin), small sharing groups and Q&A sessions.

The course will explore the life of Abraham as it is portrayed in the Hebrew Bible, as well as in various rabbinic and mystical texts throughout the ages. The goal is to create a space for a genuine, enriching engagement to enhance an authentic inner experience.

This course is the second installment in the Make Space for Grace series Jewish Mysticism for Spiritual Seekers. Those who register for this course on Abraham will receive access to selections from the previous course free of charge. Note that it is not necessary to have taken the first course to join order this one, neither does one have to be Jewish (or follow any religion, for that matter) in order to join.

Igal was a guest on the Transforming Trauma podcast, sharing how his decades-long spiritual journey has lead to his his interest in, and work with, trauma healing—both individual and collective. He was interviewed by Brad Kammer, the lead faculty of the NARM Training Institute in the United States, where Igal was certified as a Master Practitioner of NARM (NeuroAffective Relational Model), an advanced modality for healing complex trauma.

    “Igal Harmelin is an excellent meditation instructor. A passionate educator, he draws from his broad knowledge of history, science, and world religions to highlight the meaning and value of meditation for our day and age. I highly recommend his workshops for beginners and those with years of experience who want to learn more about the practice of meditation and the evolutionary relevance of this ancient spiritual art in our time.”

  • Gillian Amaro, M.Ed., LPC

    Therapist in New Braunfels, TX

    “The workshop with Igal—Meditative Attunement for Therapists—was not only an enjoyable and rejuvenating self-care experience for me, but also important in my work as a therapist. I learned specific ways to acknowledge myself, and “clean my own lens” prior to my counseling sessions, so that I might show up for my clients with more open-heartedness, curiosity, and clarity. I would definitely take this workshop again, and highly recommend it to any helping professional! Thank you!”
