Living in Joy

“It is a great mitzvah to be joyful!” teaches us Hasidism. Yes, but how can we be joyful when everything is going wrong, when trials pile up, or when life is monotonous and offers nothing exciting?

With his well-balanced humor, edifying stories, and subtle teachings, Rabbi Hadar Margolin offers us a true guide to joy. Joy in prayer, joy in study, joy in mitzvot, joy in adversity… Everything is cause for rejoicing!

Thanks to its in-depth and detailed analysis, the reader seeking Sim'ha will discover how to:

Pray with intense joy;
Remain joyful even when one falls spiritually;
To fight the depression that threatens him;
Cultivating Emouna which leads to Sim'ha.

Hashem warns His people in the Parashah of Ki-Tavo: the lack of joy in the performance of mitzvot is the source of all our misfortunes! May reading this book awaken joy within us, the source of all blessings.
