  • Overcoming Folly - 12 - Red Lines
    Overcoming Folly - Part 12
    "Red Lines"
    With Rabbi Ari Sollish
    (Recorded live at the Intown Jewish Academy on March 21, 2021)
    We all have "red lines." Lines past which we do not allow ourselves to venture. "That is too dangerous, that is too harmful, I would never do that," we tell ourselves.
    Until we do. And then our red lines become green lines.
    In this weeks Kabbalah & Coffee, we explore the spiritual side of red lines. Where do our red lines really come from? What are the deeper internal forces that tell us what's ok and what's off limits? How do those dynamics change over time? And is there ever a way to reclaim our lost innocence?

    Perfectly Happy Being Imperfect
    With Mrs. Leah Sollish

    It’s a question that has launched a thousand self-help seminars, a riddle that has perplexed multitudes, a mystery that enthralled the ancients: What is the secret of happiness? Jewish thought has long emphasized the importance of living with joy. But how? And can you really choose to be happy?
    This extraordinary course goes beneath the surface to find answers. Synthesizing timeless Jewish wisdom and the latest findings from the field of positive psychology, we look at how wealth, meaning, trust, optimism, regret, faith, introspection, mindfulness, relationships, and ritual all interrelate with our outlook on life. Packed with spiritual insights you can apply to real life, you’ll love every minute of discovering the Code to Joy.
