Shalom! My name is Chavivah "הדסה " bat Chaya Faiga Zeltzer. I am a multi-disciplinary artist and writer and former Judaic teacher in the community where I live. I has been published locally on JewishBoston.com JewishBoston.com is the digital community hub and central resource for Greater Boston's Jewish community, run by Combined Jewish Philanthropies (CJP), the local Jewish Federation. [1] I have authored several articles for this publication, including "Together for Mental Health" and "Sharing my story, Hoping for change", " Yom Kippur Lesson 9/28/2008" / Revised 2026/5786" "A Personal Statement of Gratitude and Faith", "Broken Record": A poem, just to name a few. Refuat Hanefesh: I was a contributing author for this Jewish online organization dedicated to creating a Jewish community that is more aware and empathetic toward mental health recovery especially during the Pandemic. My goal as a artist and a advocate has been to support all of the Jewish people to view mental health , mental illness, and types of addiction as a trauma response directly related to all of our intergenerational trauma. My hope has always been share my story with all of my sisters and brothers of the Jewish faith as a way to empower, support and encourage all of us to do our best by working hard to forgive ourselves and love ourselves and be kind to ourselves so we can serve Hashem with joy and happiness they way he wants us to. Only Hashem is perfect and we are human. My prayer has always been to work along side all of my Jewish family and the Jewish communities from all sectors of our faith so we can continue to use all of our gifts and talents that Hashem gave us, and that each one of us possesses as "One " "אֶחָד" !!! This way each and everyone of the Jewish people will be able to serve Hashem now and forevermore only with joy and happiness and no more suffering. May the Melech Halom "The King of the world "and our "Father in Heaven" have Rachmonus "Mercy and compassion" on us on all the Jewish peoples collective suffering as one and may he look down from Heaven favorably and accept all of our heartfelt prayers for good only. Artist Spotlight: A local nonprofit arts organization in the state I live called "Open Door Arts " spotlighted some of my work from my artist portfolio that covers some of my collections of fine art, graphic art, and my award-winningˌ short film documentry called a " A Reynah in Exile" also known as Hidden in Plain Site. I was inspired to use a allegoric style of filmmaking as the motif and backdrop for my short film that is taken by one of my favorite prayers found in the Siddur "The Jewish Prayer book" called "Shir Hashirim " שִׁיר הַשִּׁירִים" This is one of our Tefillot we say on.שַׁבָּת "Shaboos Kodesh " which can be found in our Friday night prayers service in our Siddur.
