Step up to the selfie step podcast. The problem. The Torah's psychology. And the self help steps.
I love reading Rabbi Yosef Farhi’s columns, which are so full of wisdom and practical advice. He is a truly caring person, who is devoted to helping people grow and develop their spiritual potential.

I have been reading your Parsha-sheet for 7 years. Its ideas are deep, original, inspiring yet surprisingly simple and well sourced.

Thanks to you Rabbi Farhi, seeing as I never have time to keep up with the weekly Torah Portion, now I feel like you’ve been guiding us every week to hear the unique messages Hashem is communicating through the Parshat Shavuah. These "Torat chaim" life principles make the Torah and our connection to Hashem come alive. I so appreciate this learning and look forward to continuing after the holidays.
- Devorah Yaffar Singer
The effective learning course is not just a course that if you have understood it, good for you, and if not you wasted some money. Rabbi Farhi makes sure that each person signing up for the course benefits from the tools taught and is able to use them.

I've been a regular reader of Rabbi Farhi's weekly Divrei Torah, since he began publishing them. In particular I enjoy how he brings the Jewish angle to universal philosophical, psychological, and practical issues. Very rewarding reading.

Thank you Rabbi Farhi, for the very real, relatable, heartfelt, and inspiring divrei Torah. I learned a lot from the shofar shiur you gave last week. Toda raba!

It is a shame that you do not print out Bein Hazmanim your Parshe Sheets because they really boost me up. Seriously.
- David F, Israel
I used to hate reading. After the course, I learned how to love reading and learning. Now, that i jumped to speeds of 900 words a minute, I find all different tools for life in the books that I read. Books that I would never have gotten to, if not for Rabbi Farhi's skills of Effective Reading.
