How Rebbe Nachman Ruined My Life
No CommentsRead moreThe first time I ever visited the grave-site of Rebbe Nachman I left behind a fairly together life.

Hitbodidut- Finding My Center
1 CommentRead moreWatch a fascinating video about Hitbodidut (Jewish Meditation) and learn how you can improve your life & connect to G-D on a deeper level: I had just landed in Newark airport, and after the hour-long train ride, found myself in New York’s Penn Station amidst hundreds of travelers crisscrossing, each in their own trajectory, speeding to their destinations.

True Harmony- Finding the Good Points
No CommentsRead moreI had just finished giving a lecture to the faculty at my school about how the perceptions we have of our students impacts them, when the superintendent approached me.

Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, had his first book rejected by 27 different publishers.

The Transformative Power of Dancing
No CommentsRead moreIn which body part does a person feel joy? Joy is felt in the heart and the mind. Yet, when you smile, your mouth begins to feel it. When the joy is even greater the hands might catch on and start smacking each other with excitement, most commonly known as clapping. As joy increases, it begins to permeate the hips, the knees, and finally, when you are totally elated, the joy descends into the feet, overflowing them with positive energy, and you break out into dance.
