Dear Friends,
This post is about the Jewish month of Adar as it relates to The Chazak Plan: A 12 Month Journey to Spiritual Strength.
Rosh Chodesh Adar begins Thursday night, the 11th of February and lasts for two days.
Our Sages teach that with the arrival of Adar we increase our joy, culminating in the festival of Purim. Purim commemorates the salvation of the Jewish people during the Persian exile.
While we do not have direct control over our moods, there are things we can do to enhance them. Things that enhance our mood which may have been impacted by the Corona virus include sleep, exercise and time spent with friends and family. This is on top of specific challenges we may be experiencing due to the pandemic.
Focus on one change that you are motivated to make. Maybe going to sleep and shutting off the computer earlier, scheduling in exercise, or calling a friend you haven't spoken to recently to catch up.
Questions for the month:
“What do I think is most negatively affecting my emotional health? How will I address it?”
“What will I do this month to enhance my emotional health?”
Take care and may God grant us success in the coming month,
Yaakov
