"I’m appreciative of Mayyim Hayyim as a space that allows all of us to be in our bodies..." Mikveh Guide, Naomi Sobel, so beautifully articulates Mayyim Hayyim's firm commitment to the full inclusion of LGBTQ Jews in Jewish life. We are here. Our doors are open. YOU are welcome.

"Hineni - here I am." The first of Mayyim Hayyim's 7 Kavanot for Mikveh Preparation invites you to be mindful, present, and ritually ready for the moment. Friend, Mikveh Guide, and newly ordained Rabbi Salem Pearce reflects on this kavanah prior to immersing before her ordination from Hebrew College.

In times of sorrow, rituals - both big and small, traditional and alternative - can help us on the journey to healing. Check out how pre-Pesach cleaning helped Leeza cope with the loss of her dear Aunt Ria. How have rituals helped you move through major life moments?
