Day 37 - Gevurah Sh’b Yesod: Strength within Connection

Today is the thirty-seventh day of the Omer
Gevurah Sh’b Yesod: Strength within Connection

Trust the unfolding and act well.
Dwell in the land, and be nourished by faith
(Psalm 37:3)

The strength of the spiritual warrior
who can discern her path and give honor to all

 Today we honor:
The courage that is shaped by practice
The guidance that is revealed through faith
The clarity that comes from surrender
The insight that rises with action.

Practice for today:
Take 5-10 minutes to sit. Anchor attention on the breath and feel it fill your body. After a few moments, say to your heart, I trust the unfolding and I will meet it well. Continue to say this phrase, calling your attention back as it wanders, noticing how this affirmation feels in your body and noticing the emotions it stirs.

End your sit with three deep calming breaths.

Commit yourself to the unfolding path,
Trust
And guidance will come.
(Psalm 37:5)

—Rabbi Yael Levy
