Restoring Vitality: A Community Project "The Orthodox Jewish Community is not immune to many of the common emotional ails and their consequences that present to the rest of the world. Anxiety, depression, substance abuse, infidelity, loneliness and frustration are all too prevalent. Under the direction of Rabbi Twerski, bringing the 3 Principles to our community has revolutionized the manner in which these issues are understood and as a result, addressed - with astonishing results in education, family dynamics, organizational success and personal resiliency." http://twerskiwellnessinstitute.weebly.com/ Join Jen Lucas for the second interview in our series of community building.
