Magic happens when 36 couple therapists (a number considered lucky in Judaism) meet during a full day in Neve Shalom, for a conference - professional training and a captivating encounter of professionals (couple therapists, individual therapists, trainers and teachers) from the field of body and mind psychotherapy. It creates a profound connection between all the participants, and at every level.

And that was exactly the feeling at the Spiritual Centre in Neve Shalom, a sense of connection, togetherness, and community - a feeling that transcends words.

A huge and deep thank-you to everyone who took part (a relatively good proportion for a therapists’ event ... between male and female - 14 men and 22 women). Thanks to Tal Hakim, Yael Chen Yemini, and Shachar Erez for their fascinating lectures which left us all longing for more, and a big thank you to Yotam for his major assistance in creating the meeting and to his partner - the lovely Kai, who handled yesterday's wonderful culinary aspect. And I’m deeply grateful... for this was one of the most exciting and meaningful encounters I have ever experienced.

Wishing health, happiness, love to us all 💙 Gabriel
