Emunah from the Inside Out |

What Drives Compulsion? Addictions & Emuna From the Inside Out Two-part fascinating workshop/shiur Mon. June 25 and July 2
Join us to learn how a new relationship with stress, fear, highs, and lows supports unconditional calm and resilience.
One thing that drives compulsion is the desire for relief from chronic distress: it's a helpful escape. But what if a person wasn't frightened by distressing thoughts? If he saw them as weather passing thru - that required no escape, that pass on their own?
This is possible through an understanding of Emunah from the Inside Out.
Despite the perception that all kinds of people, circumstances, and events gladden, sadden, and pressure us, there is only and always one cause and one moment sourcing our experience: HKBH, right now.
Join this fascinating two-part series with Rabbi Henry Harris, Founder/Director of the Jewish Center for Wellbeing, respected counselor and speaker, and former Educational Director of Aish HaTorah NY.

The Power of the 3 Weeks |
|
By GYE |
The Zohar (in Chelek Beis, pg 78b) writes that Yakov Avinu took the months of Nissan and Iyar for himself (hence Yetziyas Mitzrayim, Kabbalas Hatorah), and Eisav took the months of Tamuz and Av for himself (and hence, the 17th of Tamuz and Tisha Be'av), but only the first 9 days of Av belong to him. |

Only With Him |
|
By Yosef Hatzadik |
Taanis Tzibbor - Krias HaTorah:
"Im na matzasi chein be'einecha - yeileich na Hashem bekirbeinu"
If I am to give you pleasure with the eyes (ten lo mishelo, she'ata v'shelach shelo), it can only be if you are with me. I cannot do it by myself. Ilimalei Hakodosh Boruch Hu ozer lo lo yachol lo! We have to give it over to Hashem! |

Can't Sleep Without Acting Out |
|
By Dov |
Someone wrote to Dov:
At night, I need it to sleep. And even if you'll tell me that's not true, if one thinks he needs something to sleep, he can't sleep without it. I need a plan how to get this idea out of my head. This keeps on being my biggest sticking point. Even when I do forgo it and manage to sleep, I still am stressed and I think that the next night it won't work.
In addition, I can't call someone in the middle of the night to discuss this when the fear comes that I won't sleep.
Dov Responds:
Same here. Sometimes all I can do is just lay in that bed and take my commitment to sobriety seriously when I say to myself calmly and quietly, "I am going to lay right here till morning if I have to, that's all...." I 'write' gratitude lists in my mind then, and it helps me a great deal. Or I think hard for as long as I can about the ways that I appreciate my wife, each of my children, and how I can be a little bit of a better father for each of them and a little bit of a better husband for my wife tomorrow be"H. The only - and I mean only way I get out of living in the problem and into living in the solution is by doing everything I can so that all my conscious living is in the solution .
The idea of getting Israeli contacts is great (I have recovery friends in Utah and Seattle who I can call [and a buddy in China who I could, theoretically, call] in the middle of the night. Sometimes, reading a bit of AA calms me down.
Hatzlocha! |
