Brushstrokes of the Soul - Healing through Art and Kabbalah in Israel
In this moving episode, Rabbi Mark Wildes sits down with Israeli art therapist and visionary artist Rakefet Hadar (founder of Soul Pages) to explore the healing power of creativity in the wake of unimaginable tragedy.
Following the violent attacks on October 7th that devastated communities across Israel — including women living on a kibbutz — Rakefet shares how intuitive art journaling and Kabbalistic wisdom can serve as profound tools for emotional and spiritual healing. Together, she and Rabbi Wildes discuss the intersection of Jewish mysticism, art therapy, and resilience, uncovering how artistic expression can help survivors reclaim their voice, process trauma, and reconnect to the divine.
💡 Topics in this episode:
• The transformative power of art for trauma recovery
• How Kabbalah inspires Rakefet’s healing methods
• Women’s emotional journeys after 10/7
• The role of spirituality in post-trauma growth
