Love and Loving (meditation)

from Eclectic Cleric · host Rabbi Alon C Ferency

Tu B'Av (the full moon of the Jewish month of Av) celebrates love—not only the feeling that sweeps us off our feet, but the choices that quietly shape a life. In this meditation, you'll begin by reconnecting with moments of warmth, affection, and gratitude, allowing your heart to soften without forcing emotion. From there, you'll gently explore how love becomes action: caring for your own body and spirit, extending kindness to someone close to you, and imagining one small gift you can offer the wider world. Whether love feels abundant or distant today, this practice invites you to discover that love is both something we receive and something we create, one compassionate thought, word, and deed at a time.
