Marcus JCC of Atlanta to Offer a Unique New Program: Drop-In Jewish Meditation
12-Week Series of Classes, Beginning October 4, 2018
The Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta (MJCCA), is pleased to present a special new program, Drop-In Jewish Meditation. Beginning October 4, the 12-week series of classes will be offered on Thursdays at 10:00 am, in the MJCCA’s mind/body studio (5342 Tilly Mill Road, Dunwoody, 30338).

“Jewish mediation helps to relieve the stress of daily living,” explained Valerie Chambers, MJCCA’s Wellness Coordinator. “We welcome the community to come meditate at the MJCCA in a relaxed atmosphere, while adding the element of Jewish education.”
About the Class
This class will be working with Jewish religious leaders and lay leaders. They will present a meditation based on the weekly theme/parsha, which they will discuss afterwards. No experience in meditation is necessary. Both beginners and experienced meditators are welcome.
The MJCCA’s new Drop-In Jewish Meditation series was generously underwritten by a grant that was given on behalf of The Mindful Giving Fund.
“We are hoping that this grant will enable more people in our community to experience and benefit from Jewish meditation,” said Stuart Bern, Executive Director of The Mindful Giving Fund. “We felt this class would be a wonderful addition to the MJCCA’s existing wellness programs.”
