In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Yoni Rosensweig, rabbi of the Netzah Menashe community in Beit Shemesh, about the intersection between mental health and halacha.

It is tempting to sometimes see halacha and mental health as being at odds. But what if, with the right guidance, we could instead understand halacha to be a system that sees the fullness of our unideal circumstances and draws us closer to God in spite of it all? In this episode we discuss:
  • How might we enable people who are suffering mentally to live fully halachic lives?
  • How can a rabbi apply modern knowledge of mental health to centuries-old rabbinic texts?
  • How can we benefit from halacha even—especially—amid our difficulties?
Tune in to hear a conversation about how halacha has more to offer us than we might expect.

Interview begins at 12:25.

Rabbi Yoni Rosensweig is rabbi of the Netzah Menashe community in Beit Shemesh, Israel. Previously, he served as Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivat Shevut Yisrael in Efrat. Rabbi Rosensweig is the author of several books including the recent Nafshi Beshe’elati on Jewish law and mental health.
