7 Steps to C.O.M.F.O.R.T. -- Part 1. Connect

7 Steps to C.O.M.F.O.R.T. -- Part 1. Connect

In times of pain, we often struggle with what to say or do. And we all face such moments — loss, trauma, death, tragedy, setbacks.

We’d like to avoid suffering, but it is part of life. In our search for comfort, we may turn to denial, therapy, medication — even unhealthy escapes that numb rather than heal.

There is, however, a timeless path — a proven method of healing that goes back over 3,000 years. Let's call it The Divine Art of Healing: Seven Steps to Comfort. More than words, more than actions — it is a blueprint for genuine consolation and resolution, hidden within the very word comfort itself:

C — Connect.
O — Open your heart.
M — Make space.
F — Feel.
O — Offer light.
R — Reassure.
T — Transform.

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson over the next several weeks as we explore each of these steps — tools to bring solace not only to yourself, but to others. Because in this world, there is no one who does not need comfort — and no one who cannot give it.

This week we explore the first of these seven steps: Connect. How healthy connection and attachment is a powerful agent of healing.
