We are forever indebted to the Danzinger Foundation for sponsoring this series. 

Covid has hit the world hard. But as with all hardships and challenges comes triumphs and blessings. “On Healing Refuah & Halacha Series” was no exception.

With gratitude to G‑d these episodes reflect years and hours of in depth research and study on pertinent medical & health issues, both physical & mental, as well as pertinent life & death questions and concerns that are very common and applicable today.

Each episode is a brief summary and small window into the larger research of each topic,sparing the listener the in-depth analysis and myriads of sources - we summarized each category giving you the brief and succinct insight needed to help you begin thinking about these ideas and begin to apply them practically and realistically in our lives. We hope you enjoy.
