Putting my menorah on display is more than a Chanukah ritual: it’s a quiet declaration that we will not allow terror and hatred to define our story.🕎

My husband got me this beautiful menorah for our 32nd wedding anniversary last week. To me, it looks like a big smile beaming out at passers-by on the street. 

Yesterday’s atrocity at Bondi Beach has been devastating and heartbreaking for us. Sadly, the gunning down of families celebrating Chanukah did not come as a shock. It was only recently that a murderous attack took place at a synagogue where we live in Manchester - on Yom Kippur, our holiest day.

Our response to darkness is this: to increase light.🕯️

Each night of the 8 days of Chanukah, we add another candle to the menorah - gradually building more and more light. That is how we combat darkness. 

This Wednesday evening, I will be holding a Lit From Within ladies circle to harness the powerful energy of Chanukah. I’ll be blending profound kabbalistic insights with modern wellness to help you tap into your inner light. If you’re interested in joining me, drop me a message and I’ll send you more details.

May we all be blessed with spreading more light in the world. 💫
