Review for Mayyim Hayyim Living Waters Community Mikveh and Education, Newton, MA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I went to Mayyim Hayyim immediately after dropping off my youngest daughter at college. I wanted to mark this major life transition (hers and mine) spiritually by immersing in a mikvah, a ritual bath. As I descended the steps into the warm bath, my tears met the clear, embracing waters. I felt held by the waters, by the holiness of the space, by the richness of tradition. I took my time, supported by the folks who run Mayyim Hayyim and create such a welcoming spaciousness, both temporally and aesthetically.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

my visit to their mikvah.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

The beauty and welcoming ambiance of the place.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

One woman was staffing the entrance, and walked me through the process.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Help other similar organizations create similar sites throughout the country.
