Please Note: New November Start Date for Dreaming Torah Series!

Due to circumstances beyond our control, the initial session of Dreaming Torah scheduled for Monday 10/21 has been cancelled. We hope to have the series start on Monday, 11/18 at noon and to add a third session.  We apologize for the inconvenience.

Led by Gesher Calmenson, Orren Perlman, and Stephanie Brown

On Zoom only

Angels. Talking donkeys. A river of blood.  A copper serpent. Maybe the Torah is God’s dream journal. This is a group participation workshop, experimental and experiential.  We will feel into stories from Torah as if they are our own dreams, using dreamwork protocols. Have your preferred materials for self-reflection handy.

Gesher Calmenson is a Jewish Family Education Fellow, Bar/Bat Mitzvah tutor, founder of Remember-Us.org, and retired Ner Shalom School Director. He is a student of dreamwork, and invites us to explore its place in building community.

Stephanie Brown has been working with her dreams for 30+ years in countless classes, dream groups and seminars.  She has long been fascinated with dreams in the bible, particularly with the story of Joseph. She is excited to help bring Gesher's vision of bible meets dreamwork to fruition. She is currently serves as the Membership Chair Vice President of the Ner Shalom Board of Directors. 

Orren Perlman is a psychiatrist in private practice in Sonoma County. He is an avid dreamer and dream-explorer and has led workshops in dreamtending over the last 20 years.

Mondays, November 18, December 16, and a 3rd Date TBD
