"For most of human history, art-making was viewed as a way of honoring and dialoguing with the divine. But in a secular age, we often forget that our creative vision is not an individual possession; it is a verb that ties us into divine communion with our ecologies. In The Place of All Possibility, Rabbi Adina Allen offers us an answer to this desaturated worldview. She gifts us an updated, animistic view of Jewish mysticism and storytelling that generously 'beckons us to return to our depths, the chaos within.' Here is the creative spring that welcomes microbes and rootlets alongside dazzling angels and perplexing midrash."—Sophie Strand, author of The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred Masculine and The Madonna Secret"The Place of All Possibility underscores the transformative power of creativity as a means of self-discovery, healing, and connection ot a deeper spiritual dimension. Rabbi Adina Allen's personal experiences illustrate the profound impact that creative expression can have on navigating challenges and accessing inner wisdom. She dismantles the common misconception that creativity is exclusive to artists, emphasizing instead that creativity is a fundamental human capacity accessible to everyone. Rabbi Allen emphasizes the communal nature of creativity and the wisdom that comes from creating from the heart. This book encourages readers to embrace creativity as a means of self-discovery, personal growth, and contributing to the collective construction of a more meaningful and connected world."—Susan Magsamen, author of Your Brain on Art: How the Arts Transform Us"This book is a window into the sacred methodology of the Jewish Studio Process, which invites us into a multidirectional process of discovery—of Torah and of self. In this time of so much heartache, when the world conspires to have us shut down, Rabbi Allen inspires us to 'make art about it'—to unlock the creative possibilities that call out from our ancient texts and traditions, and that reside in each of us. The Place of All Possibility is beautiful and heart-opening."—Rabbi Sharon Brous, author of The Amen Effect: Ancient Wisdom to Mend Our Broken Hearts and World"Rabbi Adina Allen awakens our perception, revealing Imagination as an inspired process, from the Divine. Here, creativity is not constructed but received in a deep sacred dialogue. Bravo for this renewal of the possibility and purpose of arts and artful living!"—Lisa Miller, PhD, Professor of Psychology and Education at Columbia University and bestselling author of The Awakened Brain"In this book, you are likely to encounter words. However, if you lean in closer and bend your ears towards the pages, you might come to touch something else lurking between and behind every font: a stirring sermon in turbulent times; a song, offered with such delicate dexterity, reminding us that the world is never finished, never still, and that creation is still happening now. Rabi Allen's studious and reverent reformulation of the Torah as not just a going up on mountains, not just a taking in of instructions, but a coming down to earth, a revitalization of the ordinary with a strange potency, drips with agency. Every morsel of Rabbi Allen's disarmingly affecting invitation will spirit you away through ruptures and fissures to more wondrous delights than we can name. More than words can capture."—Báyò Akómoláfé, PhD, These Wilds Beyond Our Fences: Letters to My Daughter on Humanity's Search for Home"Deeply, gently, and courageously countercultural, this book is a stunning affirmation of life. In a time of narrowing imagination, Rabbi Adina Allen invites us to explore the untapped possibilities that live within us. In a time of relentless consumerism, she invites us to experience the sheer joy of creativity in a time of shallow relevance, she invites us to listen for the layered resonance of ancient words. In a time of cynicism, she invites us to enter the place of all possibility.

'Turn it and turn it, for everything is in it' affirms interpretation as a creative act, reliably a few steps ahead of the reflecting mind. What better way to demonstrate the imaginative basis of creation than engaging the hallowed text, not with authoritative fixity, but as a living and moving presence inviting 'wild' artistic and unique interpretations, embedding its voice in our lives."—Shaun McNiff, author of Trust the Process: An Artist's Guide to Letting Go and Imagination in Action: Secrets for Unleashing Creative Expression"In this lovely and insightful book, Rabbi Adina Allen uncovers the creativity that animates Jewish tradition, and gives us the tools to unleash our own creativity and reanimate our lives.
