Romemu (roh·meh·moo) seeks to integrate body, mind, and soul in Jewish practice. Unabashedly eclectic, we engage in body practices like yoga, infuse traditional liturgy with the energy of ecstatic chant, and ground our practice with meditation and contemplation. This is a Judaism that will ignite your Spirit.
Romemu creates an integral & holistic prayer experience based upon the on five basic freedoms:
Movement- Space to stretch, dance and find the natural movement of your body that opens you to prayer.
Voice- Safety to find many forms of voice, including singing, speaking, crying and laughing.
Thought-Thinking is both critical and analytical. Both spirituality and intellectual honesty flourish together.
Silence- Freedom to be silent, to quiet the mind and nurture the soul through time-honored contemplative practices.
Commitment- An invitation to commit, to be bound to a community that expects and relies upon your active participation, both as members of the congregation and as socially conscious and aware citizens of the world.
We believe that these five freedoms provide the foundation to live more meaningful lives; lives full of loving kindness, Spirit, peace, joy, and commitment.
