(5) Orthodox Jews and Mental health: An Open Conversation with Rav Yoni Rosensweig

Mental health awareness has undergone a remarkable transformation in Jewish communities over recent years, and today's guest, Rabbi Yoni Rosensweig, has been at the forefront of this change. Through his groundbreaking work integrating mental health into a halakhic framework and his book 'Nafshi Bishe'elati,' he has helped create a new language for discussing mental health within Orthodox Judaism. While his work has taken on additional urgency in the context of the current war in Israel, Rabbi Rosensweig's mission to destigmatize mental health challenges and provide halakhic guidance for those struggling began long before, and continues to shape how Orthodox communities approach these crucial issues.
