Join us as we unpack the essence of character development according to Jewish wisdom. Discover the transformative paths laid out by the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch and Rambam's Hilchos De'os, guiding us away from negative traits like anger and toward a persona ripe for the Torah's teachings.

This episode offers a tapestry of tales that celebrate the art of balance, an art deeply rooted in Jewish tradition. From understanding the importance of enjoying life's pleasures without overindulgence to recognizing the power behind every blessing we recite. These stories aren't just passed down through time—they are lived experiences that resonate with the wisdom of the Talmud and rabbis.

As we navigate the waters of life, balance remains a steadfast compass. This episode delves into the Jewish perspective on maintaining a cheerful disposition, managing our resources wisely, and fostering humility as a bulwark against arrogance. We explore how these principles not only shape our character but our actions, our relationships, and our approach to the divine. So, tune in for an enriching conversation that will leave you inspired to balance your emotions and actions in alignment with Jewish teachings, as we prepare our hearts and minds for the ultimate gift of Torah.

The Living Jewishly Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way.
