On this episode of “613 Books” Podcast, Producer-Host Heather Dean’s guest is Rabbi Alexander Seinfeld, Executive Director if Jewish Spiritual Literacy, Inc (JSLI). He is the co-author of Body & Soul: The Torah Path to Health, Fitness, and a Holy Life. This book is a collection of over one-hundred-eighty major Torah teachings, some of which appear in translation for the first time. Heather asks Rabbi Seinfeld about the authentically Jewish approach to intermittent fasting; proper sleep and the “power nap;” and Rabbi Seinfeld’s findings about the sugary treats we give our kids. Body & Soul covers a wide range of health-related topics through the prism of the Torah and our sages and while adhering to this book’s guidelines may seem daunting, Rabbi Seinfeld provides a perspective to help us all get on the path toward better health.
