Shaloha beautiful Beings! Happy Harvest Full Moon Lunar Eclipse!🌝🌚 I have news... I awoke this morning and decided I am going to once again free myself of social media. I realize this may not make sense when I am about to finally open the transformational healing space we have worked so hard for, but I am positive everything will work out as it is meant to. A few things... 🍎🍯Rosh Hashanah classes, services and ceremonies will be held at Ahava Aina 10.2-10.4🍯🍎 ✨✡Yom Kippur Day of AtONEment classes, services and ceremonies will be held at Ahava Aina 10.11-10.12✡✨ 🌈Rainbow Kids Yoga will be hosting their FIRST Hawai'i Kids Yoga Teacher Training at Ahava Aina 11.11-11.13(including accommodations and food if needed)🌈 One of my main goals in opening this space was to create a place where people could disconnect from this alternate universe we have created behind our devices, and reconnect with the moment. Reconnect with reality. As I begin to hold and open this space for others, I feel more called than ever to do this for myself, NamaStandUp and Ahava Aina. I will no longer live my life behind a device. I will no longer be a part of this false reality. G-d, the Angels, nature, and reality are calling...I have to answer. I am here to make the "old" new again. I would absolutely love to have YOU join us for a ceremony, workshop, class, service, retreat, and more here at 🌱🌈Ahava Aina - A Sustainable Synagogue🌈🌱 If you wanna be a part of it all, please email me at [email protected] and I will gladly add you to our email list. If I don't have your contact info, please send it to me if you wanna keep in touch. The website will be new and pretty and updated soon...with a new one to accompany it as well...so keep an eye out. BIG things are happening. HERE. NOW. Keep in touch. We got dis. You'll see. Trust me.😘 Love youuu❤️💛💚💙💜💖 Shabbat Shalom! Mahalo! Namaste🙏💖✌️ (at Ahava A'ina)

Lava hits the ocean. Fire meets water. They both keep flowing. Getting hotter and hotter. Waves in and out. Lava pouring down. Working together. To create new ground. The love that surrounds. The presence of G-d. I cannot deny. I don't buy the facade. We aren't here to be separate. We aren't here to be apart. We must come together. Find our way to the heart. It's up to us NOW. This is the art. We were put here to create. We must play our part. So what can YOU create today? What needs to go? What needs to stay? Make space. Give thanks. Receive. Pray. Let go. Surrender. Mahalo! Namaste🙏💖✌️ #gowiththeflow #surrender #mondaymanifesting #mondaymantra #shekinah #pele #creation #motherearth #hawaii #bigisland #bigislandlove #rabbirachel #standingupforwhatis #namastandup #lovingwhatgives #ahavaaina #lava #ocean #volcano #baruchhashem #mahalokeakua #luckywelivehi #luckywelivehawaii (at Kalapana Lava Flow)

One year ago, I was in Israel.🇮🇱 I saw the whaling wall for the first time and began to cry. I was beyond emotionally overwhelmed. I experienced the energy of a place that truly cannot be put into words, but only felt. I felt my ancestors. I felt pure surrender. I felt Divine Flow. What I felt, experienced, learned, simply cannot be put into words and conveyed via social media. (Can anything ever, really?) Now, here I sit, as the youngest female Rabbi in our nation. Overwhelmed by life and where it can take us when we truly surrender to G-d, The Angels and pure Divine Flow. Everything is energy. Standing Up for What IS means standing up for THAT which is sooo much bigger than us, it's beyond our comprehension. (And to think, it all came from a cute name for StandUp Paddleboard Yoga!) My Divine purpose in life is to heal the world, and as a Rabbi, I am now given the opportunity to be a Spiritual Healer in ways I could have never imagined. I have the utmost gratitude and humility for being chosen to fulfill this Divine purpose and find myself constantly saying, "Seriously? Me?!"😳 The place I am opening here on the Big Island 🌱🌈Ahava Aina - A Sustainable Synagogue🌈🌱 will not only be the first temple led by a Rabbi on the island, but a place for ALL to HEAL though connection to What Is. I don't care if you call it G-d, The Universe, The Divine, Ke Akua, or whatever...we are all talking about the same thing! "Same, same...but different." One year ago today, I stood and prayed where my ancestors first temple was destroyed. Today, I sit in the first temple on the Big Island.🌋 Stay tuned for ✨magic✨ like you've never experienced before...new website and schedule in the works...upcoming trainings and retreats already on it...THIS IS IT!🙌 I am humbled and grateful to have been called to help heal the world...to help build the rainbow bridge...to help lead us into true change through action and social justice...to guide us towards Tikun Olam - repairing the world through Mitzvot - acts of loving kindness.💓 THIS is how we HEAL THE WORLD, and I am beyond grateful that I not only received this calling...but chose to answer it. Shabbat Shalom!✡ Mahalo! Namaste🙏💖✌️ (at הכותל המערבי,בעיר הקודש)

Because that's how life is Waves big and small And we don't get to stop We must ride them all With ease and grace And at what pace That choice is ours How we create space Surrender to surf And go with the flow Just letting go Of the need to know Or we resist What Is We attempt to control Create our own trouble Yes, this is so It is up to YOU To choose to grow And you are always supported This I know It may seem scary But when you let go Your life will be perfect I promise you so You are supported always Here and Now In the time that we live It can be hard to see how But go be in nature Or take a deep breath Let all thoughts go Choose to surrender Let them fade as you glow Feel love💓 Feel light✨ Try something different today Just go with the flow🌀 On this Aloha Friday🌈 Shabbat Shalom✡ You are supported in all ways I just share What Is What G-d asks me to say Standing Up for What Is🙌 Mahalo!

Summer Solstice...strawberry full moon...Imua Wahine at Ahava Aina...treating my first client in my new healing room...being at @xavierruddofficial...my last Rabbi class...the most peaceful Shabbat weekend ever...WOW! I can't help but thinking back to this time last year....we hadn't even broken ground at Ahava Aina and I was preparing to travel to Israel for the first time alone...feeling as though I was beginning something so special and magical but totally unsure of my journey and what to expect...surrendering all fear, doubts and expectations...completely open to receiving whatever The Divine needed me to. Now, I sit in complete and utter awe. Is this really my life? How did I end up here? How is this all happening to me? I used to be the most controlling person in the world. I think back to all the time I used to spend straightening my hair and putting on makeup to control my appearance, how I used to try and control life and those around me, how I was so materialistic, full of drama, helpless and lost. I didn't even know how lost I was. When I finally had no other option...I discovered how much easier it is to just trust, have pure unwavering faith and surrender to What Is. Now, I am serving and healing in a space that didn't even exist 365 days ago. Now, I am a few weeks away from a journey to the mainland where I have the unbelievable humbling pleasure of being ordained as a Rabbi, then sharing 🌱✨Aloha Aina Asana✨🌱 at @wanderlusthlwd 🌈Now, I am about to open the space that was merely a dream when I wandered alone through my homeland of Israel, just like my ancestors before. When they were called to create the radical change they did at the time, I am sure they were scared. Entering a covenant with The Divine and choosing to uphold a scared contract is NOT an easy task. When I think of those before me who have earned the great role of "Rabbi," I can't even begin to comprehend that this path has chosen me. From Papa Israel to Mama Hawaii...I am building the rainbow bridge! This journey hasn't been easy, and it may never be, but I am so grateful it is mine. The time is NOW. THIS IS IT! Stay tuned...BIG things are happening... 🙌🌈✨Mahalo! Namaste 🙏💖✌️
