Uri, please read through this page.

I have a major problem with davening, besides for shabbos I never daven including putting on Tefillin, the only Tefillahs I say are my tefillahs for recovery, it bothers me no end that I have this block and I really want to over come it, any ideas?

I went through a period where I used certain parts of davening to help me in recovery – the Y’Hi Rotzon after Brochos and Mizmor Shir berfore Boruch Sheomar, but this has fizzeled out too.

Any ideas why I do this, and how to get out of this trap
?


After some give and take, he wrote:

Thank you for encouraging me to put Teffilin on even for 5 mins. As an addict, I have the issue of perfectionism – - which means all or nothing, and I need to learn that life is not so black and white and there is so much in between. Further, I know from the fellowships that I often have to take the actions even though the feelings are not there, and once I take the actions the feelings follow. When I first joined SA, I was told (as is told to all newcomers) bring the body back and the feelings will follow. So too with my Tefflin, if I bring the body back even for 5 minutes, the feelings will eventually follow. I am now off to put Teffilin on and say Shema. Thank you

This is so funny, keep the Minyanim coming.

I couldn't stop laughing.

If you want a consistent Minyan you have to serve some good Lekach and Bronfin.

Pintele is here...hungry and thirsty

E.N. filling up...
Men---Let's get a vasikin minyan going!

E.L,

My Rebbe Used to say, "What do you do, if you don't have any patients to Learn or Daven?"

"We Daven & Learn Without Patients!"


Ye, but it's so sad when I do have patience for anything else. Such as watching movies...

This song comes to mind--- "Essen est zich, Shlufen shluft zich. Vus zol men tun az es davent zich nit? Essen est zich...." :-\ :'( :'(

that song is seriously depressing
right now, i'm going to daven and my favorite part of davening is "Ahavah rabah Ahavtanu!"
