Courses by Dr. Jonathan Feiner:
“I have participated in Dr. Feiner’s workshop on Mindfulness through the Jewish lens and I am so happy I did. It was a chance to learn how to become connected to myself, others, and the world around me in a deeper way. Dr. Feiner helps the participant engage in the power of awareness through “actively” experiencing mindfulness. He brings the expertise of both mindfulnessֲ and Jewish values to his workshop.ֲ The participant walks away with the tools they need to practice on their own, and a strong understanding of the incredible benefits of Jewish Mindfulness.”
“Dr. Jonathan Feiner has pioneered a breakthrough in the field of Jewish Torah Psychology. By developing a system of Torah-based mindfulness, Dr. Feiner has given the Jewish psychologist and patient tools with which to achieve complete emotional health using mindfulness in a totally acceptable Torah way.”
– Rabbi Hershel Reichman
“Dr. Jonathan Feiner does a masterful job educating our minds and hearts in the understanding and practice of Jewish mindfulness.”
-Dr. David Pelcovitz
