Spiritual Practice

I'm finishing up a four day Hevraya (alumni) spirituality retreat for rabbis and cantors sponsored by the Institute for Jewish Spirituality. Four days to engage into Jewish spiritual practices - meditation, yoga, text study, prayer, silence and collegiality. To reengage the waning practices to return to mindful Jewish Living.I feel back on track. I feel like I have regained parts of my self (soul?) that I have misplaced in the hustle and bustle of life/work/ family/etc.I came with a recognition of certain constructions in my being that I wanted to address. I came seeking soulful reengagement with the Holy One, with myself. I had a peticha, an opening.It was like rebooting a disconnected laptop to find it can once again connect to the Internet. Uplifting. Reaffirming. Reenergizing.Now all I need to do is remain mindful and connected. Easier said than done. But since the first step is setting the intention, I feel like I am on the right track.
