In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we return to the topic of teshuva by talking to Mendel Horowitz, a Jerusalem-based psychotherapist, researcher, and author who introduces us to the notion of having a “good-enough Elul.”
In this episode we discuss:
—What is the nature of the inner work we do over Elul? —How do our psychological and religious work overlap and interact? —How can we detach ourselves from external expectations and learn how to live comfortably in pursuit of our purest desires?
Interview begins at 27:00.
Tune in to hear a conversation about how we discover our most essential selves.
