Sh’maYoga: Listen to Your Heart
Integrating Kabbalah & Yoga:
Deep Listening for Restoring Body, Mind, Heart, and Soul
to Natural Health & Joy
Rabbi Sigal has been practicing integrative methods for 30 years and has been teaching her approach to diverse audiences.
“Real beauty is my aim.” ~ Gandhi

“I learned that many aspects of our lives are connected and affected by spirituality; the inner experience of being connected to the whole, the ground of Being, the mystery some call God. We all, knowingly or unknowingly, search to end the sense of separation and we desire to feel like we belong. The methods I practice and teach bring peace to our soul, heart, mind and body, which is our real human right, and we spontaneously become happier and content. The integrative practices I teach have shown to have a positive impact on relationships, work and family life, well-being, and improve mental and physical health.”
The approach combines teachings and practices from a variety of disciplines; Kabbalah, Jewish mysticism, yoga, contemplative traditions, arts, somatic therapy, psychology, and other methods, in service of the discovery of our true nature and living with expanded awareness. The methods aim at seeing and discerning clearly, integrating the complex being that we are, and healing through letting the wisdom of the heart, mind, and body flow freely.
In the process, we practice to become tuned instruments, living our lives to their fullest with joy and fulfillment, progressively reducing the amount of discontentment and dissatisfaction with life. As we awake to the different layers of reality and aspects of life, and experience the richness of our soul, we can better steer ourselves to living fuller lives. We acquire knowledge, awarenes
s, contemplation skills, and life skills that aid in reaching our fullest potential and purpose. In search of truth and wisdom we aim at opening the mind and heart to become truly receptive (mekubalim) to Holy Presence and to who we truly are.
Sh’ma - Listen, hear, pay attention, tune in to the wisdom of your heart. The Jewish declaration of faith and the Biblical call to humanity to discern and know that all is one.
Yoga - Bringing together, yoking, uniting. The ancient tradition of integrating body, mind, heart, and spirit from the Far East, mainly known as part of Hinduism and Buddhism.
Kabbalah - The wisdom tradition that teaches how to be open to receive, be receptive to Grace (Shefa) that flows through the universe. In Sh’maYoga we understand Shefa to be the same as the wisdom of the heart and our human true nature.
The integrative approach is designed to facilitate for each person to find their unique expression of integrating heart, mind, and body. Learning and mastering practices are means to an end; living your heart’s desire, and the practices are not ends on their own. We use new, and renewed, ways to inspire and deepen people’s spiritual and physical practices, and cultivate well-being, peace, and joy in the world.

“But all experience of beauty is experience of cosmic wholeness, of harmony. Beauty is microcosmic intuition of macrocosmic reality… To create is to experience the likeness to divinity.” ~ Matthew Fox, Original Blessing
