What is the soul of social media? I think it’s this simple. I’m talking to a camera, but really I’m talking to Hashem. There’s an idea that Hashem hears every word, every tefillah, and social media lets us experience that in a real way. You can speak, share something from your neshama, and it’s captured, for others and forever. Not just for people, but as a moment between you and Hashem. That’s the depth of it.

OCD treatment needs great organization.

If you’re struggling to follow through with exposures, or you’re a therapist trying to build accountability with clients, this matters.

Exposures don’t happen “sometime today.” They need to be scheduled precisely and tied to real routines.

Just like building any habit, this takes structure, reminders, and consistency. The harder the task, the more intentional the system needs to be.

Clean up your reminders. Get specific about timing. Build it into your day.

This is often the breakthrough.

Giving you strength to keep going.

Rosh Hashana is right now. Not the one in Tishrei, the one in Nissan. According to the Torah, Nissan is the first of the months.

Tishrei is about refining yourself. Your character, your relationships, teshuva.

But Nissan is about something deeper. Identity.

Who are you? You are Am Yisrael. Part of a people with a mission, a Torah, a connection to Eretz Yisrael, and a story that began with Yetziat Mitzrayim.

And only when you know who you are can you truly work on who you want to become. Find yourself first, and then you have a self to refine.

Chodesh Tov.

What does God want most?

The first mitzvah: הַחֹדֶשׁ הַזֶּה לָכֶם — the ability to begin again.

Before anything else, God gave us renewal. Not perfection. Not “fix everything.” Just this: you can restart, right now.

“Chodesh” comes from “chadash” — new. Every moment is a chance to turn, reset, and come back.

You don’t need to fix your whole life. Just make one decision: I’m starting again.

Chodesh Tov 🌙

Israel is winning. But the deeper victory is something else entirely.

In Hebrew, nitzachon (victory) comes from the root נצח

Netzach means eternity. Foreverness.

We are Am HaNetzach.

The eternal people.

Yes, we pray for victory in war. For protection. For real and lasting shalom.

But our true victory is deeper. It is that we are still here. Still building. Still connected to Hashem. Still living with purpose.

That is the victory that lasts forever.

Dear Israelis,

Lo Dayeinu. It’s not enough.

This is a message from diaspora Jewry. Yes we are praying. Yes we are adding Tehillim to our tefillot. We are donating and checking in. But Lo Dayeinu.

You are living with mesirut nefesh in Eretz Yisrael while we watch from galut. Your very existence there is sacrifice and Jewish history unfolding in real time.

We love you. We see you. Hashem please protect our family in Eretz Yisrael and bring real shalom, bimhera beyameinu.

Jews wake up.

The world is showing us something clearly.

They don’t see a difference between Jews and Israel.

We are עַם יִשְׂרָאֵל — the people of Israel.

Thank you to the friends who speak up.

But we ultimately rely on אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם.

May He protect the Jewish people everywhere.

עם ישראל חי

Jews need to be together right now.

With the synagogue attack in West Bloomfield, where a vehicle ramming and shooting targeted a Jewish space, and with other attacks on synagogues including in Toronto, it is clear what these people are trying to do. A synagogue is called a Beit Knesset, a house of gathering. The goal of these attacks is to make Jews feel that they don’t belong there. To make us feel intimidated, isolated, and alone.

Of course every community must make the security decisions needed to protect their families and their institutions. Safety matters.

But spiritually our response must be the opposite of what they want. We respond by being a Beit Knesset. By gathering together. By showing up. By refusing to let fear break Jewish community.

A minyan is ten Jews gathered together, and our sages teach that when Jews gather and pray, the Shechina, the Divine Presence, is with them.

Shabbat Shalom.

Hashem should protect Jews everywhere.

In Israel and across the diaspora.

May our communities continue to gather with warmth, strength, and faith.
