welcome to the Light Lab!

transformative t’fillah, together.

hi, i’m eliana!

I'm an educator with 10+ years of experience making t'fillah accessible and meaningful for all ages. Since graduating from JTS with a masters in experiential education, I've song-led in synagogues, started minyanim, taught at conferences and graduate schools, written curricula, toured as an artist-in-residence, and put out three albums of original Jewish music. Through exploring what t'fillah is and why we do it, I believe we can change ourselves, our communities, and our world.

  • What We Do

    Our mission is to make Jewish liturgy and prayer practice accessible and meaningful to all seekers.

  • How We Do It

    Through heart-centered, embodied, inviting methodology, we unlock the transformative power of t’fillah to strengthen our spiritual cores and revitalize our communities.

  • Our Vision

    A future where t’fillah inspires, comforts, and empowers us towards Oneness and a healed world.

“Eliana's presentation touched me on a personal level and on an educator level. She instructs with beautiful music, delightful humor, and a wisdom beyond her years. Absolutely outstanding.” -ISJL Conference Participant
