SUMMARY:Virtual Tashlich: Letting Go of Cancer-Related Trauma in Preparation for the High Holidays
DESCRIPTION:As the Jewish New Year approaches\, many of us make apologies\, ask for forgiveness\, and we hope for a new year filled with health and happiness.

How can we even think about the coming year\, as we are still trying to get through the current one? Even the High Holiday liturgy can present challenges. \nJoin us on Friday\, September 26th at 12:30 pm EDT/9:30 am PDT\, to help you prepare for more meaningful High Holidays\, and the coming new year with special guest\, Rabbi Dr. Jason Weiner\, Executive Director of the Spiritual Care Department\, at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles\, who will speak about personal resilience during the holidays. \nRegister here. \nQuestions?
