Rabbi Shais Taub Delivers Lecture on Recovery

Chabad @ the Beaches’ Jewish recovery program recently brought bestselling author and world renowned speaker Rabbi Shais Taub here to Ponte Vedra Beach.

The talk was titled emotional sobriety; the art of remaining reasonably happy, calm and centred while surrounded by other people’s insanity. Although Rabbi Taub is a recovery expert is talk inspired a vast spectrum of people. People in recovery found Rabbi Taub fascinating as well as people looking to improve their emotional lives.

The room was packed with over 65 medical professionals, community members and newcomers. Continued Education Credits were provided by Wakiva Springs hospital, a sponsor of the evenings event.

Dr. Mendel Galer, director of Chabad’s recovery work in Ponte Vedra says “the message of this talk applied to people of all walks of life” Galer adds “those in recovery had prevously never heard of Jewish recovery, when they did they will be utterly amazed”.

    Avrohom Twerski is the acknowledged maven in this field What does he say about this peron’s work?

    Rabbi Twerski gave Rabbi Taub’s book a major haskomah. Rabbi Twerski’s endorsement is on the back of G-d of Our Understanding and he sees “everyone should read this book.”

    The book is pictured above in the photos. It’s been to print like three times since around the time of the kinus hashluchim which is when it came out. I think it was #3 or even #2 on Amazon Jewish bestsellers. Tons of people know about it.
