description: Kabbalah. The word itself is feminine, meaning "receiving", yet women have long been excluded from this Jewish mystical tradition. As a young woman, Firestone forged a pioneering path into the ecstatic mysteries of the Kabbalah. Today, as a leading woman rabbi, she has made it her life work to help other women do the same.On The Woman's Kabbalah, Rabbi Firestone opens a treasury of practices especially for women, to transport them into new dimensions of awareness. Through chant, prayer, and journaling, listeners learn how to spark, explore, and express their spiritual selves, according to the Kabbalah's once-guarded instructions. Included are specific techniques for contacting and creating a relationship with the maggid (personal spirit guide), discerning the inner voice of wisdom we each are blessed with, and opening the senses to the exquisite wonders of everyday life.For the Kabbalah to be a living body of truth, Rabbi Firestone teaches, it must include women in its framework. Now its feminine dimension is finally and fully illuminated through the all-embracing practices on The Woman's Kabbalah.
