Elul invites us to pause, reflect, and begin the sacred work of teshuvah. Through Parashat Shoftim, guided journaling, and simple daily practices, we begin a journey of reflection, release, repair, and return.

Envisioning the Path Ahead
Parashat Re’eh reminds us that our choices matter. As Elul approaches, we are invited to practice cheshbon hanefesh—an accounting of the soul—to see where we are, envision where we hope to go, and open our hearts to possibility through prayer, reflection, journaling, and creativity.
The Art of Commemoration
Commemorative art gives visible form to the love and memories we carry in our hearts. In honor of the fifteenth anniversary of her husband Andy’s death, Joanne shares meaningful ways to support those who are grieving—and offers a special opportunity to create a personalized gift of remembrance in MyZenScribe.com.
Remembering as a Path to Renewal
As I mark my beloved husband Andy’s fifteenth yahrzeit, Parashat Devarim invites me to look back with love, carry forward the lessons of the journey, and discover how remembrance can become a path to renewal.
Healing Light
In this deeply personal reflection on Parashat Beha’alotecha, I write about finding strength in overwhelming times, praying for healing for those I love, and the sacred call to create communities of dignity, blessing, and belonging during Pride Month.
The Power of Prayer
Prayer has become one of the ways I keep showing up—with hope, courage and love—through overwhelming times. In this post, I share how prayer journaling became part of my spiritual practice, along with handwritten prayers, healing prayer templates, and customizable Mi Shebeirach offerings from ZenScribe.
