The Lubavitcher Rebbe’s Radical Approach to Mental Health | Levi Shmotkin

He rebuilt Jewish life post-Holocaust and advised world leaders—but the Lubavitcher Rebbe was also a profound counselor to the human soul. Rabbi Levi Shmotkin, author of the global bestseller “Letters for Life: Guidance for Emotional Wellness from the Lubavitcher Rebbe” [https://www.amazon.com/Letters-Life-Guidance-Emotional-Lubavitcher/dp/0826690149] investigated over 23,000 letters written by the rebbe and explains how the Rebbe's private correspondences mapped out a timeless framework for mental health, including positive psychology, and overcoming anxiety, bad moods and isolation.
