Dina Guedalia and Iris Haim
Lessons of Light: Choosing to See Beyond: Eyes of Jerusalem, Yosef’s Legacy of Redemption and Love

Sunday 30.08.2026

How to watch

This lecture starts on 30 August at 7:00pm (UK).

Summary

A journey into Yosef’s radiant way of seeing the world — a vision of unity, love, and redemption that continues to shine through the “Eyes of Jerusalem.” Since October 7th, this vision has become my compass: through stories drawn from that time and beyond, I’ll share how a redemptive consciousness can transform how we see, even in the darkest moments. This is a journey that Iris and Dina both share, each in her own way, from the moment they met to today.

Recently, she trained at Binu College in Jerusalem. The program enables participants to gradually reframe their mindset toward one that is redemptive, through a unique blend of Torah, psychology, trauma-release techniques, and more.

Iris Haim was born in Haifa, Israel and has lived most of her life in the Negev region. At 16, she joined the Machanot Ha'olim movement’s “kibbutz class” and moved to Kibbutz Ein Zivan, where she lived and worked while completing her studies. During her army service, she met Raviv, who she married in 1991 at Kibbutz Gvulot where together they raised their three children: Tuval, Yotam, and Noya. As a certified nurse for more than 30 years, Iris found her passion in supportive and palliative care. In 2014, she founded the Refuat Haim organisation, which is dedicated to supporting and assisting people in need. She continued to acquire additional tools and training, including mindfulness, NLP, Theta Healing, psychodrama, spiritual accompaniment, bioenergy, shamanic healing, and positive thinking. On October 7, 2023, Iris was herself under attack during the Hamas assault and, her son Yotam was kidnapped by Hamas terrorists and taken to Gaza.
