How is the mikvah used today?
The mikvah is a positive way for people to focus on their bodies, gain respect, and concentrate on their own needs. Although there is a heavy emphasis in Judaism on the importance of community, coming to the mikvah is a very private time for reflection and spiritual cleansing. As CGCM develops new and creative reasons for mikvah use, we welcome all members of the Jewish community of all ages and life stages who desire the spiritual experience of immersion.
