Health Guidance from Rambam - Laws of Personal Development (18)

Textbook for the Shiur: Hilchot De’ot & Hilchot Talmud Torah (Laws of Personal Development & Laws of Torah Study) https://www.amazon.com/Mishneh-Hilchot-Personality-Development-Talmud/dp/B000GW5NHC . Laws of Personal Development: Hilchot De’ot 18 Judaism places great emphasis on the performance of mitzvot that not only deal with deed and action, but also involve the development of our thoughts and feelings and the dedication of them to the service of G-d. It could be surprising for many people that personal growth is associated with commandments that we are obligated to fulfill, and it’s not a matter of personal choice. But don’t worry, you don’t have to do this alone. G-d, in His mercy, shows us a path that enable each one of us to grow intellectually and emotionally and use our potentials for the service of G-d. Hilchot De’ot is one of the sections within Sefer Mishneh Torah by Rambam (Maimonides). Rambam demonstrated in Sefer Hilchot De’ot the objective law of personality developments as the path G-d shows us. Be’Ezrat Hashem, through learning and following the process of personal growth, we will be able to carry out all the other mitzvot with greater awareness and conviction. Eleven Mitzvot and dozens of Halachot are taught with commentaries and detailed explanation in Hilchot De’ot class, including five positive commandments and six negative commandments, as follows: 1. to imitate His ways 2. to cling to those who know Him 3. to love others (fellow Jews) 4. to love converts 5. not to hate one’s fellow Jews 6. to admonish [a wrongdoer] 7. not to shame 8. not to oppress the unfortunate 9. not to bear tales 10. not to take revenge 11. not to bear a grudge. Learning with Rabbi Lev Leib Lerner, and Be’Ezrat Hashem, we all adjust ourselves to the middle path and modify our middot to fulfill our potential for the service of our Creator. --- 00:00 - Intro 00:31 - Sefer Shmiras Haloshon: Silencing the Accuser 02:20 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 4: Halachah 15: Harm of not exercising and overeating 07:14 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 4: Halachah 16-17: Proper manner of bathing 20:44 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 4: Halachah 18: Bloodletting 26:49 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 4: Halachah 19: Proper Intimacy 39:11 - Hilchot De’ot: Chapter 4: Halachah 20: Health Guarantee from Rambam 51:31 - Outro --- #SilencingTheAccuser #MeasureForMeasure #Peace #Harmony #Satan #Accuser #SpeakingDisparagingly #DivingWrath #Hashem #Hoshea #YalkutShimoni #JewishHashkafa #EvilTalk #GossipAndSlander #SeferShemirasHalashon #SeferChofetzChaim #LashonHara #HalachotOfLashonHara #HarmOfNotExercisingAndOvereating #Overeating #Exercising #PoisonToBody #KingSolomon #HarmfulFoods #LashonHara #GuardYourMouth #GuardYourTongue #ProperMannerOfBathing #Bathing #WaterTemperature #LingerInBath #Eating #Exercise #Intimacy #Bloodletting #WeaknessOfBody #Bath #Journey #ProperIntimacy #JewishIntimacy #WastingSeed #DoNotGiveYourStrengthToWomen #Proverbs #SexualRelationships #ExcessiveIntercourse #StrengthOfBody #HealthGuarantee #HealthGuaranteeFromRambam #HarmfulHabits #Illness #PreventativeHealth #Health #SoulDoctor #CharacterDisorder #BeneficialResult #MishnehTorah #HilchotDeot #MiddleWay #TheLawsOfPersonalDevelopment #Rambam #JewishTraits #MiddotDevelopment #Middos #CharacterTraitsDevelopment #Maimonides #SeferHamada #JewishValue #JewishHashkafa #Halachos #Halachot #BeezratHashem #RabbiLevLeibLerner #RabbiLerner #LearnWithLerner #BeezratHashemLearnWithLerner #BeezratHashemHalachot #BeezratHashemHalachos #LevLeibLerner #LevLerner #RabbiLevLerner #Torah #Tanakh #God #faith #laws #rabbi #morals #ethics #morality #jews #torahLecture #lawsOfPurity #LawsofJudaism #BeezratHashem #RabbiLevLeibLerner #LearnwithLerner #RabbiMizrachi #HalachosofJudaism #biblestudy #selfdevelopment #selfimprovement #musarmovement #lawsforwomen #lawsofbrachot #rabbiefraimkachlon #rabbiyaaronreuven #jewishstories #shabbatcandles #torahstudy #ConvertingtoJudaism #TorahLaws #ToviaSinger #TorahTruth
