Meet your Animal Soul. Be the Boss. Flip it Back.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
Working out gives you an upper hand against your Animal Soul. Remember that Exercise + Consistency = Success applies to the physical and the spiritual/emotional.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
God promised us that we will never be tested beyond our ability. Tests show you just how powerful you are.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
We’re responsible for our thoughts, words, and actions – G-d’s got all the rest covered. Trust Him.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
Judaism isn’t a religion; it’s a relationship with G-d. And that relationship influences and is influenced by every other relationship in your life.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
Make your G-dly Soul your personality. Don’t kill the animal, just tame and train it by fighting the darkness with light.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
Our personality is a mixture of our two souls, our two psychologies. It’s a daily battle in our thoughts, words, and actions.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
Only Kabbalah clearly tells us the make up of our psyche and inner consciousness. You can’t work on something if you don’t know the parts and how they work together.
Rabbi Zalman Nelson (9)
Despite some of its success, Psychology falls short in terms of truly helping people. Here’s what it is missing.
