On Yom Kippur, we’re invited to slow down, turn inward, and open our hearts. Rabbi Josh Feigelson explores an ancient teaching about directing our hearts toward the Holy of Holies and offers a simple mindfulness practice called The Gentle Knock, a way to pause, reconnect, and come home to ourselves with compassion rather than judgment.

In the final episode of Soulful Jewish Living's ten-part series on feeling at home, Rabbi Josh Feigelson turns to an end of summer teacher: baseball. Using Kirby Puckett's famous walk-off home run and the mishnaic teaching on Sukkot, Josh explores why "home" is less a place than a state of mind, and closes the series with a guided meditation on teshuva as the practice of always finding our way back home.

Home isn't a place with walls, it's the whole earth, and teshuva means returning to that sense of belonging. In the latest episode of his series on home, Rabbi Josh Feigelson opens with Project Hail Mary's longing for home, then draws on Thich Nhat Hanh and Rabbi Alan Lew to reframe Rosh Hashanah, creation's birthday, as an invitation to feel at home in the world itself. Josh also includes a short breath and gravity mindfulness practice to embody the idea. Be in touch at josh@unpacked.media.
