Uplifted

Serving Hashem with joy is the primary way to reach elevated levels in our avodas Hashem.

Failure and mistakes are inevitable, and feeling down about those mistakes only impedes future growth. Based on the Torah and Chazal, Uplifted sheds light on how the Ribbono shel Olam views us—even when we sin— and how He wants us to view ourselves as well.

By recognizing the greatness of man and enhancing your appreciation of yourself and others, you will be inspired and encouraged in your journey toward growth and self-esteem. A positive approach to personal development, this book clarifies the joyful approach to teshuvah and self-improvement that Hashem desires for man.

“I enjoyed very much everything I read [from this sefer].”

Rav Hershel Schachter

“This sefer is a combination of Torah and chochmah shel goyim taamin….a mussar sefer that im yirtzeh Hashem should be used for sh’viras ha’middos...the purpose of life.”

Rav Mordechai Willing

“Every person who…learns from this sefer… will become spiritually and positively elevated.”

Rav Yitzchak Cohen
