Sefirat HaOmer - Working with Kabbalah

Sefirat HaOmer is among us! You may have noticed a subtle urge come over you to all of a sudden count things that arises during this time. If so, then you’ve probably been called crazy, but in Judaism… “we’re all a little bit crazy here” (Alice in Wonderland).Sefirat HaOmer is a unique time where we count each day after the second day of Pesach. It commemorates the Omer offering (a barley offering that was brought to the temple during this time). The Dvar Torah’s abound for this time. Some about speech and working on clean language, however, the overarching goal of this time is self-refinement through the 7 emotional sefirot (kindness, severity, harmony, endurance, splendour, and foundation).Rebbe Nachman teaches that if a person thinks about the sefirah of each day, they will discover what self-refinement they need to do each day until arriving at the 50th of Shavuot when all comes together to receive the Torah on the day of Understanding (Binah)#sefirat #haomer #sefira #kindness, #severity, #harmony, #endurance, #splendour, and #foundation #understanding #torah #shavuot #shavuos #rebbe #nachman #rebbenachman #self #refinement #selfcare #selfimprovement #judaism #counting #aliceinwonderland #judaism #pesach
