What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this episode of The Liberating Effect, Rabbi Mendy Greenberg, MY House CEO Michelle Overstreet, and Isaac Smoldon share their insights on battling bad moods and overcoming life's challenges. Drawing from the book "Letters for Life" by Levi Y. Shmotkin, the discussion revolves around practical guidance for emotional wellness. Rabbi Greenberg shares his experience from a recent conference in New York, highlighting the power of positive environments.
The hosts discuss how bad moods can serve as opportunities for reflection and growth, rather than setbacks. They emphasise the importance of gratitude and kindness in everyday interactions, and how these can influence one's mood and outlook. Michelle Overstreet shares personal anecdotes about managing grief and finding peace through trust in God. The episode is peppered with light-hearted humour, particularly with Isaac's hockey analogies that bring home the message of resilience and perseverance.
This engaging conversation offers listeners relatable advice on maintaining emotional balance and the power of positive thinking. What's your strategy for tackling bad moods?
