In Hebrew, the word tevilah means “dipping.” It refers to dipping pita in hummus (yum!), jumping in a lake (fun!), and the ritualized immersions in a mikvah (wow!). A mikvah is a sacred, ritual bath in the Jewish tradition. It’s one of the oldest and most important practices of this faith. Fun fact: every ancient building in Jerusalem has a little room at the bottom for a mikvah. Tevilah is a uniquely Jewish way to experience a rare moment of peace in your relationship to your body, because the message of this ritual is that your body is holy. All women-coded are invited to join in the renewal ritual. Bring a bathing suit, towel, blanket and snack or drink to share. See newsletter for details on where to meet. We suggest carpooling as it is $10 to park.
