Health as a Jewish Priority – Moishe Dov Chanin
Episode 28.
Moishe Dov is a life-long and dedicated member of the Chabad-Lubavitch Orthodox Jewish community in Brooklyn, New York. He speaks from the heart of his journey through addiction and subsequent sobriety. With regained health, taking up a daily practice of Jewish study has re-trained his definition of discipline into a positive and reliable force.
IMPORTANT: This episode includes discussion of addiction and suicide. Listener discretion advised.
If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or suicidal ideation, seek help –
Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (USA) – dial 988
AA – https://www.aa.org
Highlights:
· Doing his best to follow the biblical commandments is fundamental to being part of Chabad-Lubavitch Judaism.
· Connecting to God and fulfilling one’s purpose is paramount.
· Believing and living in the way that God loves him, was the path to health.
· Undoing harmful beliefs and creating healthy ones is a long and ongoing process.
Quotes:
“Do acts of goodness and kindness and try to make the world a better place every day, in every way.”
“I can't afford to believe that God is unforgiving.”
“Physical health. Mental health. Spiritual health. In that order. Addiction is a deadly disease. It is a progressive and deadly disease.”
“No matter what state you're in if you're inspired to take action, great, take action. But if you're judging yourself, please consider the path of forgiveness.”
