Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Synopsis: Today’s episode may be thought of as a further elucidation of the concepts I’ve been speaking about in relation to my Mezuzah Experiment that’s been going on for the last two weeks. Although you can definitely listen to this one on its own, it’ll make more sense in context to listen to the “Sacred Pause”-related episodes linked below. As for the experiment itself: we’ll see if the new trick I introduced today helps! (Think of this trick as being similar to those street signs that notify you that a stop sign is coming up.)
