Avoiding Distraction: Mindfulness and the Second Commandment

What do Instagram, your phone, and ancient idols have in common? This week, Rabbi Josh Feigelson explores the Second Commandment—"You shall have no other gods"—as a deep call to mindful living. He shares how distraction can become a modern form of idolatry and guides listeners through a meditation practice rooted in the mystical verse Shiviti Hashem l’negdi tamid. In the second episode in a series on the Ten Commandments and mindfulness, discover how to realign your attention with your spiritual intention in a world full of noise.
