Ekev 5785 - The Two-Day Rule

Ever wonder why getting back into your learning routine after vacation feels so much harder than you expected? This week's Parshas Ekev reveals a startling spiritual principle that changes everything: when you take one day off from Torah or meaningful prayer, it actually costs you TWO days of effort to get back to where you started. Through a powerful parable from the Yerushalmi about two friends walking in opposite directions, Rav Wolbe shows us why spiritual momentum works both ways - and why even our summer breaks have hidden consequences. If you've ever struggled to reconnect with your spiritual practice after time away, this episode will transform how you think about consistency in your relationship with Hashem. Don't let this summer be the season that sets you back double. This is a public episode.
