Episode Synopsis

** Congregation Ahavat Olam’s musically uplifting weekly Shabbat service. **
Rabbi Idan's sermon for this Shabbat HaChodesh, Parashat Sh’mini, is: “Food – the Fuel that Powers Our Body and Soul”
Sermon excerpt: Our sages teach us that our physical body is like a vessel, and our soul is the content within it. The food we consume is like the fuel that powers both our body and soul. We must be mindful of what we consume because it directly affects our spiritual well-being. Furthermore, we must be mindful of the impact that certain foods have on our emotions and behavior. For example, if we consume too much sugar or caffeine, we may become hyperactive or agitated, which can negatively affect our ability to connect with our inner selves and with others. On the other hand, if we consume foods that are naturally high in nutrients and have a positive effect on our body, we will feel better, both physically and spiritually. For example, eating fruits and vegetables can boost our energy levels, improve our mood, and help us feel more connected to nature. --Rabbi Idan
