Episode 1: Our Rituals and Us

Welcome to Regeneration, a podcast about reimagining Jewish practice in a modern world. In the past five years, we’ve lived through a global pandemic, October 7 and its subsequent shockwaves, and a changing political and technological landscape. We’ve also gone through personal changes – starting families, making big moves, and thinking about our place in that rapidly changing world.  Rituals ground us, connect us, and challenge us to connect both to the world and to our tradition.  Eileen Levinson and Debs Weinberg help friends, families, and chosen families revive customs with authenticity, creativity, and joy. From Shabbat candles to everyday blessings, discover how to weave old and new practices together across generations to bring the people you love closer.
