I attended a very interesting book signing of Rabbi Levi Y. Shmotkin, who recently edited and published "Letters for Life: Guidance for Emotional Wellness from the Lubavitcher Rebbe".
Shmotkin spoke on various topics, presenting examples from individuals he himself interviewed that had received letters from the Rebbe. Shmotkin spent years reading and researching the Rebbe’s correspondence and archives. The common denominator he identified was the Rebbe’s advice and teachings on coping with the inevitable challenges that threaten our peace of mind.
The Rebbe was the one that brought Torah wisdom down to earth and made it accessible for all. His teachings and guidance evident in the many thousands of letters he personally answered are inspiring and life-changing.
In this episode, I share what touched me the most and what all people can apply to everyday life to achieve emotional wellbeing.
Mentions:
Book - "Letters for Life: Guidance for Emotional Wellness from the Lubavitcher Rebbe"
The Rebbe - Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson
