SPIRITUAL TIPS
As we take extra precautions to avoid contagion, it's important to strengthen those areas of our 'spiritual' health that have a direct effect on our physical health. We encourage you all to keep finding safe ways to exercise your soul. B'ezrat Hashem - with G‑d's help - we will all get through this and take lessons to heart to improve as individuals, as a community, and as a society.
The following are a number of suggestions of things that can be done to strengthen one’s 'spiritual' immunity:
Be sure that the Mezuzahs of your household are Kosher
Be sure your Tefillin are Kosher.
Woman and girls, be sure to light Shabbat candles on Friday at sunset before Shabbat begins.
Give extra charity on a daily basis. Have a dedicated Tzedakah box in your home. Women have a custom of giving charity before candle lighting on Friday.
Recite chapters of Psalms daily : Suggested chapters 20, 22, 69, 150.
Acquire a letter in a Torah scroll. For a Letter in the Childrens Torah click here . For a Letter in the Adult Unity Torah click here .
Most importantly, strengthen oneself and others in the faith that: "if one thinks good, it will be good."
Wishing everyone health, safety, and happiness!
