    Healing Your Sukkos Stress: We Want Your Heart More than Your Food - Women's Sukkos Class

    The Anatomy of Ecstasy: How Joy Was Reinvented at Simchas Beis HashoavahThis class was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on 11 Tishrei, 5787, September 22, 2026. The joy of Sukkos cannot merely mean relief that the Yamim Noraim are over. Relief is valuable, but it is not the explosive simcha described by Torah and Chazal. Every night of Sukkos in the Beis Hamikdash, multitudes gathered in Jerusalem. Great sages danced and juggled flaming torches. Light flooded the city. Before dawn, a procession descended to the Shiloach spring, drew water, and carried it upward with shofar blasts. The water was poured on the mizbeach together with the morning offering. Was this joy only because Yom Kippur is over? That seems strange. So what is the secret of this intense joy? The Mishnah says (Sukkah 51b), One who never witnessed Simchas Beis Hashoavah, the Sages declare, never witnessed joy in life. But why? And why say it in the negative? And also why be “stingy” with joy? Maybe a person did experience happiness in another setting or environment! How can anyone state that “if you did not come to my wedding, you never saw joy!” It seems very strange. The class delves deeply into the secret of the schism of the water on day two of creation and how the joy of Sukkot heals the tension that has become part of the fabric of life. The class shows how the deepest gift we can bring into the sukkah is not perfection on the table; it is a living heart, present enough to channel joy, love, and the flow of Hashem.

    The Most Epic Love Story Ever Told (But My Ego Is Terrified) - Likkutei Torah Yom Tov Shel Rosh Hashanah #4

    The Sound of 'Tzimtzum:' What Our Generation Is Detecting This is the fourth class in a series on the Maamar Yom Tov Shel Rosh Hashanah said by the Alter Rebbe for Rosh Hashanah 5571, September 29, 1810, which came out on Shabbos. This class was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Monday, 25 Elul, 5786, September 7, 2026, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. In this section, the Alter Rebbe describes the greatest love story ever told; yet the ego refuses to believe it. How vulnerable and blissful to experience, in an embodied way, that I am the best thing that happened to Hashem?   How the Alter Rebbe healed the "trauma" of the "yesh," the sense of ego and separateness, which is the core of all our anxiety. Take your "yesh" seriously, but realize what is its true story: Hashem in His essence wantinbg to have an authentic relationship with YOU.

Forget ego-death. Hold on to your ego, trauma, and anxiety and surrender it. You are my king, and I am your servant.  View Source Sheets: https://portal.theyeshiva.net/api/source-sheets/9989

    The Tragedy of Teachers & Leaders Suppressing Student Curiosity and Individuality - Likkutei Torah Yom Tov Shel Rosh Hashanah #2

    What Happens to the Soul when It Departs from the Body? This is the second class in a series on the Maamar Yom Tov Shel Rosh Hashanah said by the Alter Rebbe for Rosh Hashanah 5571, September 29, 1810, which came out on Shabbos. This class was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Wednesday, 20 Elul, 5786, Sep. 2, 2026, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.  The class delves deeper into the two states of consciousness, Igulim and Yosher. Where we are submerged in the source, like the photon in the sun, the stop in the ocean, and the fetus in the womb, to where we emerge as "something," and the source turns into "no-thing." We discuss why Moshe did not want to be a leader, and why so severe a penalty for expressing a halacha in front of your Rebbe.
