The Early Intervention Program (EIP) is a public program for children under the age of three who are either suspected of having or at risk for developmental delays or disabilities. Potentially eligible children must be referred to the county program (Rockland County, 845-364-2032) to receive EIP services. EIP is funded by New York State and county governments. All EIP services are provided at no cost to parents. Health insurance may be used for approved services. A child's eligibility for the program can be determined only by state-approved evaluators under contract, and all services must be authorized by the county.

(Re: Entering With Awe) On the topic of kavod beis haknesses, I would like to voice my thoughts regarding a very serious matter that is prevalent in our community: the trend of women coming to shul on Shabbos for aufrufs and completely shattering the decorum within the shul. The socializing that occurs at times like this makes it impossible for shul-goers to follow along with the leining, answer to Barchu, or follow the rest of the davening. I strain my ears mightily to make out the words of Kaddish in the men’s section down below, and all around me there’s the rising crescendo of voices getting louder by the minute. While I’m not one to dispense mussar to others, I feel obligated to inform my fellow community members about how this behavior disrupts the atmosphere in this makom kodesh. Many people rationalize about this, stating that because it’s the ezras nashim and not in the place where the shaliach tzibbur is leading the davening it’s okay. Furthermore, they say, women are anyhow not obligated in tefillah. However, these statements stem from ignorance, and I feel it is important to bring awareness to this issue. M.W.

ASK US ABOUT OPWDD FUNDING
I want to bring awareness to the following in order to help people avoid the agmas nefesh and money loss we experienced. We itemize our tax deductions and listed charity donations as deductions. Unfortunately, we were audited, and although we had all the receipts, many were determined ineligible as deductions because they had been issued to Mordche, and not my husband’s legal name — Martin. Even though the last name and the address were the same, the auditors would still not allow it. I’d like people to be aware of this, and charity organizations should know to ask for a legal name when issuing receipts. (The same can apply to any legal document.) Preventing Loss
PUBLIC YICHUD AWARENESS In the current situation, with stores being locked to the public, with their shades drawn and only private appointments allowed, the circumstances could possibly be yichud. In the past few weeks, it happened twice that it was just the owner and myself in a store, and I therefore had to leave. We all hope the situation will change for the better very soon, but in the meantime, make sure you’re not transgressing halacha. B.W.

DOUSING THE FLAMES First, I just want to let you know how much my family enjoys your publication. The writing and recipes are always fantastic. You’ve never yet disappointed us! I want to make all Monsey balabustas aware that for an oil fire, chalilah, you can use simple baking soda to douse the flames. It works like magic: As soon as the fire makes contact with the baking soda, it dies immediately. I was broiling burgers in my oven recently, and the fat running down the burgers began burning. I opened
the oven door, and flames leaped out. All it took was two generous shakes of the baking soda container, and b’chasdei Hashem, it was over. Store away this piece of information in case you’ll ever need it. And while I’m on the topic, I’ll mention that it’s worthwhile investing twenty to thirty dollars for a fire extinguisher. May we not need to utilize all this, and may Hashem watch over all of us. N.I.

WEEK 6:
UNDER COVER It is forbidden, writes the Shulchan Aruch, to enter a beis knesses with one’s head uncovered. At first glance, this seems simple enough. Covering one’s head — a concept with which we’re familiar — is a way to instill a small measure of seriousness, an awareness of the gravity of life and of the One looking down on us wherever we are and whatever we are engaged in. A bare head, on the other hand, carries with it a measure of carefree lightheadedness, and a lack of that seriousness. Upon closer inspection, though, this halacha seems somewhat perplexing. Why would the Shulchan Aruch need to specify that one may not enter a beis knesses bareheaded? Doesn’t the requirement to cover one’s head hold true wherever one is, no matter the setting? To answer this question, it is necessary to take a step back, turning to the earliest section of Shulchan Aruch, long before the laws of kedushas beis haknesses. There, when describing a person’s morning routine, the Shulchan Aruch writes: “V’lo yeilech arba amos b’gilui harosh — A person should not traverse four amos while his head is uncovered.” The wording is somewhat ambiguous. Is the Shulchan Aruch telling us that this is absolutely mandatory, or is he only describing what we should be doing, even though it is not an absolute obligation? The poskim are divided on this matter. The Mishnah Berurah cites both positions and advocates for the position that this is an obligation, while acknowledging[1] that
the letter of the law likely follows the opinion that it is only a proper mode of conduct.[2] To be clear, the discussion here is only regarding life in general, when one is not engaging Hakadosh Baruch Hu directly. If, however, one is actively engaged in a matter of kedusha such as reciting a bracha or tefillah, all agree that a head covering is mandatory. Today, the vast majority of our kehillos assume head coverings as a given part of our basic dress. Indeed, a clearly observant Jewish male walking around with a bare head generally raises eyebrows. Historically, there have been kehillos across the globe that did not naturally dress this way. Among many German and Sephardic communities, the practice was generally to cover one’s head only in a beis knesses or when engaged in tefillah, Torah or other matters of kedusha. These kehillos followed the opinion that as a general conduct, head coverings are not mandated, but are a strongly urged ideal. As they did not see this as absolute law, there was allowance based on circumstance, be it local anti-Jewish sentiment or other, to not insist on this conduct. It is worth noting that regardless of original reasoning, at this point the practice has gained widespread de facto acceptance, and as such, may have the status of minhag[3]. This would mean that unless one belongs specifically to a kehillah where head covering is not the norm, one cannot simply choose to stop wearing a head covering and claim reliance on those kehillos. Now, returning to the question of why the beis knesses gets special mention: According to those who rule that covering one’s head is generally recommended but not mandatory, the distinction of a beis knesses becomes clear. Unlike other areas, the beis knesses is the home of Hakadosh Baruch Hu and has an elevated status. Within these walls, a head covering is certainly mandatory. According to those who rule that a head covering is universally mandated, what distinction does a beis knesses hold? These poskim point to the specific wording of the Shulchan Aruch: The universally applied law requires a covering when traversing four amos. What about less than that, such as walking a mere foot or two? Here, the status of a beis knesses comes into play. While a head covering is generally not required for movement of less than four amos, due to the exalted nature of a beis knesses, a covering is required even
for the most minimal movements.[4] Let’s take a practical example: You’re standing in shul, having just completed Shacharis. A fellow mispallel, beginning his daily carpool dash, accidentally knocks into you and sends your yarmulke flying, causing it to land two feet away. As mentioned, many maintain that in a beis knesses, even minimal movement with an uncovered head is forbidden. What now? If someone is standing nearby, asking for assistance would likely be the simplest solution. Another solution would be to raise your arm and use your shirt or jacket sleeve as an improvised yarmulke. As far as placing your own hand or arm directly on your head — although for standard scenarios, such as walking around one’s home or other, one can rely on this — when in a beis knesses (or reciting a davar shebikedusha), using your own hand is insufficient. Interestingly, having a second person place his hand on your head is generally[5] an acceptable option.[6] Then again, you could just as well ask him to pick up your yarmulke… Rabbi Elias is a maggid shiur at the Yeshiva Gedola of Hampstead in Montreal, Canada.

]1[ לשונו בסימן ב' נוטה לצד חיוב אך במ"ב ובביה"ל בסי' צא' משמע היטב דנקט דהוה מדת חסידות וגם מה שחילק בין הליכה לאמירת דברים שבקדושה לענין אם מועיל לכסות בידו מורה שבהליכה בעלמא אין חיוב מדינא
The Mishnah Berurah points out that this debate centers only on wearing a covering as a freestanding concept in its own right. However, if one lives in an area where non-Jews have a specific insistence on going bareheaded when showing respect, it would likely invoke the commandment of b’chukoseihem lo seileichu, requiring us to stand apart in distinction from their way of life, thereby making a head covering obligatory, not only d’Rabbanan, but actually d’Oraisa. While most of Western society today leaves their heads uncovered as a matter of taste rather than insistence, and this would not apply, up here in Quebec there is an absolute societal insistence on removing head coverings when standing before a judge or the like — and as such, this halacha would likely apply.

'ראה ביאור הלכה סימן צא' סעיף ג
The Mishnah Berurah cites the Peri Megadim's opinion that this solution is adequate only when indoors. Suppose one was at the Kosel, where the lower portion of the plaza is dedicated for tefillah and has kedushas beis knesses. If standing in the covered portion of the Kosel area, using a friend's hand would work. If standing in the open-air section, however, one should avoid relying on this solution.
[5]
[6] The issue with using a hand is that the hand and head are essentially one entity, and it cannot be said that something is covered when its only covering is itself. Using a friend's hand or one's own sleeve would avoid this issue and would certainly be acceptable.
IN SUMMATION: 1. It is obligatory to cover one’s head when in a beis knesses. This is true regardless of whether one is engaged in tefillah or not; the very nature of the space creates the requirement. According to many poskim, this obligation holds true even when sitting in place or moving minimal distances of less than four amos. 2. If necessary, one may use a sleeve to cover one’s head. Using one’s own hand, though adequate for walking outside of a beis knesses, is not sufficient within a beis knesses. A friend’s hand, however, works even when in a beis knesses.

Polls to Remain Open in Lockdown Areas on Election Day Despite the ongoing lockdowns that have schools, shuls and non-essential businesses shuttered in areas designated as COVID-19 cluster zones, polls throughout the state, even in red zones, will remain open on Election Day. More than twelve polling sites are located within Rockland County’s red zones, including two in New Square, five in Monsey, and two more at Ramapo High School and the Hillcrest Fire Department. Governor Andrew Cuomo was asked about voting in red zones on an October 22nd conference call with reporters.
teen-day quarantine for anyone arriving from affected areas. Cuomo suggested at a press conference last week that he is considering dropping the fourteen-day quarantine order and replacing it with rapid coronavirus testing, saying that enforcement has been very difficult, according to Democrat and Chronicle. “Better than time, you should use testing,” said Cuomo. “They have rapid tests that are very quick. It’s smarter to use testing than it is to just set timelines.” As of last week, 43 states and territories met New York’s criteria for inclusion on the quarantine list by having a minimum of ten average daily COVID-10 cases per 100,000 residents over the previous seven days or a 10% rate of positive cases. New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania have all met that threshold but were exempted from the list, with Cuomo discouraging all nonessential travel to those states while simultaneously acknowledging that it was nearly impossible and economically dangerous to close off travel completely.
Icy Response from Monseyites as Day Says Rink Should Reopen Since It Doesn’t Serve Red-Zone Residents
Cuomo adviser Beth Garvey said voting is considered an essential activity, describing it as a constitutional right. Early voting began in Rockland on October 24 and continues through November 1 at town hall buildings in Ramapo, Clarkstown, Orangetown and Haverstraw, with social distancing and sanitation guidelines in effect. Voting hours are 12 noon until 8 p.m. on October 29; 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on October 30; and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on November 1.
Changes Coming to Out-of-State Quarantine Requirements? With high COVID-19 rates earning nearly every state in the country a spot on Governor Andrew Cuomo’s quarantine list, a potential plan has been floated to lift the four-

It was a heated response from Monsey residents to a request made by County Executive Ed Day to Governor Andrew Cuomo, asking that a local skating rink be allowed to open since its patrons live outside Rockland’s red zones. VIN News reported that a letter written by Day on October 16 had the county executive advocating on behalf of the owners of Sport-O-Rama, saying that the rink has been serving nearly 2,000 youth and high school hockey players and figure skaters, none of whom are residents of the locked-down red zone. “Sport-O-Rama does not serve the general public in the cluster for recreational use and has been strictly following New York State’s COVID-19 Safety Protocols,” wrote Day, whose letter also noted that “the mistaken closure is causing them extreme financial hardship.” According to Day, Sport-O-Rama’s owners believed it had been incorrectly placed in the red zone because of an incorrect assumption that it was located on Horton Drive. Situated on the east side of College Road, the facility is still located
Imagine... on the outer perimeter of the red zone. Day refused to back down from the letter, saying it was in keeping with the governor’s philosophy of using COVID-19 infection rates to fine-tune lockdowns. He also conceded that two individuals enrolled in the figure-skating program were residents of the red zone, which encompasses large portions of Monsey and Spring Valley. Those explanations rang hollow for Monsey residents, with Rivkie Feiner telling The Journal News that Day’s approach “was outright discriminatory and continues to feed the narrative that the Orthodox Jews are spreading this horrible pandemic.” Reacting on social media, Yehuda Zorger observed, “This is what it has come to in NYS unfortunately. A county executive asking u to help an establishment that’s #JEW free. #Antisemitism without even trying to hide it. It’s Judenrein. #NeverAgain.” “The Rockland County Executive is asking the NY Governor to allow a business to reopen because the Jews in the Rockland red zone cluster don’t frequent the business,” commented Kiryas Joel School District Superintendent Joel Petlin of Spring Valley. “It’s not only offensive, it’s a lie. Sport-O-Rama should be opened safely for all.” But county spokesman John Lyon took a different view of the situation, saying that Day treats all county residents equally. “The county executive is willing to advocate on behalf of any business or school that provides our office with compelling and concrete information about why they should be exempt from the governor’s orders and restrictions,” said Lyon.
Cuomo Offers First Glimpse of Potential Vaccine Distribution Schedule With the possibility of a COVID-19 vaccine drawing ever closer, Governor Andrew Cuomo floated a potential timetable for distribution of the long-awaited vaccine. According to the governor, vaccines would be prioritized at three different levels, with those living in areas with high infection rates inoculated ahead of those in locations where COVID-19 is less prevalent in each category. Those at high risk for contracting the virus and essential health care workers would be first to receive the vaccine, followed by those at lower risk and other essential workers. The third phase would include the general population. Cuomo has made it abundantly clear that vaccinations could only happen with his approval. Spectrum News reported that Cuomo dismissed Mayor Bill de Blasio’s plans for distributing vaccines within New York City. “This locality says they’re going to do this,” said Cuomo. “This locality says they’re going to do this. Localities have no legal jurisdiction. That’s the law. The states are going to be responsible for administering the vaccine.” The governor has also repeatedly said that any vaccine approved by the federal government would also have to be approved by the state. “Frankly, I’m not going to trust the federal government’s opinion and I wouldn’t recommend [it] to New Yorkers based on the federal government’s opinion,” said Cuomo. “We’re going to put together our own review committee headed by the Department of Health to review the vaccine, and I’m appointing a committee that is going to come up with a vaccine distribution and implementation plan on how we will do it. New York’s response to COVID has been a model for this country, and we should also be the model vaccination program for the country.”

CHAPTER FOUR
RECAP: Ariella
begins her investigation into where Osher could be. Rabbi Reiness turns down yet another potential buyer for his home, telling him that he’s not interested in selling.
“W
hat are you looking for here, Rebbi?” The question was surprising, but not unexpected. It wasn’t the first time that it had been asked of Elazar Reiness, in any number of ways and words. The strange thing was the timing. “Why? Are you not enjoying it here, Osher?” “Me? I am enjoying being here very much.” Osher hugged the rusty cannon he was perched upon. The cool evening air whipped around him roughly. From their spot at the top of the wall, they could see the sea spread out before them on one side, and the entire city — new and old — on the other side. “Acco is a nice city,” the boy conceded. “Really nice. Calming. But why did you choose to live here?” The bearded man chuckled. “I enjoy the city just as much as you do, first of all. Besides that? I’m a carpenter, as you know. It’s what I do, and this is where my shop is.” “The carpenter rabbi,” Osher murmured. “But there are many places where you could do your work, you know. And while I agree that there’s holiness in this city — I mean, you have the Ramchal shul and Ohr Torah and all that — there are also so many Arabs living in Acco, and mosques and churches. So, what are you looking for here?” “You.” Reiness laughed and straightened his yarmulke, which was about to fall off his head.

“Lots of people are looking for me, but they haven’t been able to find me,” the youth said tonelessly. “Why do you think you’ll be able to do it?” “I’ve had a knack for finding things ever since I was a little kid.” Rabbi Reiness’s blue eyes twinkled at him. “My mother, alehah hashalom, would send me to look for anything that got lost. But let’s not talk about that now; you’ll get bored. Call the others, and ask them what they think of a light supper. My rebbetzin prepared some delicious food for us, if my sense of smell is not deceiving me.” The boy slipped off the ancient cannon — or was it faux ancient? Rabbi Reiness was not sure of its true age — and walked farther along on the wall to where the others were standing and chatting. “Supper,” he said tersely. “Come on.” When they were all sitting on benches on the deserted promenade a few hundred meters down from the cannon spot, Osher raised the subject again, insistently. “This is not your real house, Rabbi Reiness, right?” “It sure is.”
“Lots of people are looking for me, but they haven’t been able to find me.” “Where did you live before this?” “In Haifa.” “So why did you come to Acco if you never had any connection to the city before?” “I actually did have a connection.” Reb Elazar smiled, his famous grin spreading across his face. “I lived in this city when I was a child. Until I was six.” “In the house where you live now?” “Osher, do you want a cucumber?” Dovid interrupted. “Here’s a huge one. It’s so big, it will keep you busy and quiet for a long time.” “Dovid,” Reb Elazar said quietly. “I’m sorry, Rebbi, I just don’t have the patience for nudges. He’s still a guest, and with all due respect to him, if he has a list of questions, he shouldn’t go through it while he’s sitting next to me.” Osher sat swinging his legs, gazing at the water that was growing blacker by the minute. He didn’t seem offended — perhaps because he hadn’t even heard Dovid’s barbs. After a few minutes of “pass the hummus, please” and “who wants apple juice?” Rabbi Reiness cleared his throat. “Now,” he said,“if everyone is full, perhaps the time has come to satiate our souls a bit, as well?” He looked at his students. To Osher, the sentence sounded a bit too elegant, almost like the rabbi was reading it from a book, but none of the carpentry apprentices snickered at it. They just listened to Rabbi Reiness in silence. Osher stood up and walked near the benches. He felt the others’ piercing eyes on him, but he ignored them.

I. just. can't.
But… what if you can? What if I told you that you had the power to be happy and calm – even in the middle of corona. That it’s not about externals. That it’s about how you handle the externals. You’ve heard this a thousand times. But you’ve never been able to do it yourself. Here’s a hard truth: You never will. Your relationships won’t magically improve. And every challenge can break you a little more. But here’s a happy truth: It’s not hard to learn how to deal. And once you learn the coping skills, you’ll have them forever. That’s why I created The Moodmaker, the 9 week, online course based on proven, DBT skills that have helped hundreds of thousands of people across the globe. It will give you the tools to master your emotions – with everything that’s going on in your life. (Yes, everything.) In the privacy and safety of your own home.
Imagine living without the fear of stress, grief, or trauma. You have a toolbox. You’re in control. You have what it takes. Come what may. you’re unstoppable.
Make that a reality:

Reb Elazar spoke nicely, really nicely. If Tatty, Mommy and Ariella would hear him, they would be happy. But he wasn’t sure that the thought of him living in Acco would please them at all. Then again, it was definitely better than lots of other places… Just to be sure, he had decided not to tell them anything for now. He
“The first to do what?” He closed his pad. “To crash into me.” “You mean, you’ve been knocked down before?” “You could say so.” I smiled in a friendly way. “But it’s fine. You can’t see anything from the outside, so it doesn’t bother anyone.” He straightened his black hat (not the shabby-looking one, the nice Shabbos one. Later he told me that he’d come to Bnei Brak for a wedding of a former student) and looked at me. “It actually sounds very disturbing,” he noted, and raised his eyebrows. “To be knocked over by someone. Did it hurt?” “At first.” “And then?” “Then you get used to it.” I don’t know why I started talking to him that way. Maybe because he started talking that way to me. He asked me for my name, and then where I live, and only then, too late, did I realize that I didn’t know this guy at all, and that I’d been taught from age zero not to speak to strangers. Okay, so I’m no longer a little boy, but still. “Whatever; it doesn’t matter,” I said. “Anyway, I need to get back to yeshivah. The shiur starts soon.” “Which yeshivah are you in?” “Right now? Or the day after tomorrow?” “Is there a difference?” “Right now I’m in yeshivah, and the name of the place doesn’t matter, just like my name doesn’t matter. But the day after tomorrow, I might not have patience for yeshivah anymore.” He sat down on the bench and put his hat on his knees. “You don’t look

He wasn’t born to be a carpenter, as he had come to realize in the short time since he’d arrived. Now he was staying just to gauge if it was worth it for him to stay on for other reasons. Reb Elazar had charmed him from the first moment. That encounter had also been on a bench, although the scenery had been much less special than it was here…
Osher: To this day, Rabbi Reiness and I can’t decide who found whom. Perhaps we both found each other. I was standing near the bench dreamily, lost in my own thoughts, and he was standing across from me, looking into his little green notepad. It was only at the last second that we avoided a serious collision. “Hey!” I said to him, just as he suddenly raised his eyes. “Oh!” he replied. “Sorry, sorry, I’m so sorry. I almost crashed into you!” “It’s all right,” I said. “You wouldn’t have been the first.”

like someone who is going to leave yeshivah.” I laughed. “You think so? This is my third yeshivah already.” “You look very sheltered.” Yes, that’s the word he chose. “Sure. That’s because of my parents, who raised me well. They’re not to blame that their son can’t sit still for ten minutes. But I’m also not to blame, and neither are the maggidei shiur. It’s no one’s fault.” He looked at me, and I returned his gaze. There was real concern in his eyes. I felt that I had to reassure him quickly. “It will be fine, b’ezras Hashem. I mean, I hope it will be fine.” He continued looking at me with that same expression, that look of his, and I felt tears almost coming. “It’s really fine!” I repeated, and stood up. “You can relax. You didn’t knock me down, and I’ll manage with all the rest of it.” “But why do they knock you down?” he asked. “My friends? Oh, they don’t mean it. If you’d know me better, you’d see that I’m the irritating type, the type who doesn’t know what to say or when to say it. You know, there are those types who just know how to do the right thing, at the right time, and in the right place. I have a sister like that. But I’m the exact opposite. I also don’t get along with my friends, don’t do well in learning, and I don’t succeed at anything that I try to do. No one has it easy with me. That’s it.” I turned around. I couldn’t stand the way he was looking at me. “Look, bachur’l.” He put a hand on my shoulder and spoke rapidly. “If you don’t want to give me details about yourself, that’s fine. But can I give you my contact information? Just so you have it? And if you ever feel like it — please call me. Maybe I can help you.” He opened his green notepad, pulled

a sheet out from the end, and wrote something on it. Then he gave the paper to me. I glanced at it. Elazar Reiness, it said. And there was a phone number. “How can you help me?” I asked, trying to sound blasé, as if to say, I don’t really believe that you have a way to help me, but if you really want me to ask, then I’m asking. “I have a carpentry shop,” he said. “And I have great guys who work for me there, from good homes. Like you.” He smiled. “The type of boys who struggled in yeshivos, for all kinds of reasons. It doesn’t matter how they got to me, but they ended up there.” He stuck his green notepad into his jacket pocket. “Baruch Hashem, I think they are happy with us.” “A carpentry shop?” I was skeptical. “I have two left hands.” “There’s a carpentry shop there, sure. Anyone who wants to work there is welcome to do so. But anyone who doesn’t want to, doesn’t have to.” “And what does such a person do? Walk around all

day and all night without doing anything? I don’t like that. And my father always says that idleness is the mother of all sins.” “That’s very true. Still, I don’t think you would be bored with us.” He was still smiling. “You know what? Try it out. What do you have to lose? Worst comes to worst, if you don’t like it, you can always leave.” “But I don’t even know you,” I said, feeling like a twoyear-old. He’s right, the two-year-old, isn’t he? You don’t just pick yourself up and go somewhere with strangers. “So here you go. You’ve got my name, and you can find out about me from whomever you want.” “Where can I find out about you?” “You can ask people in Haifa,” he replied. “And in Acco.” “Acco?” I broke the word down into two syllables. “You live there? Aren’t there only Arabs there?” “No, there are also lots of good Jews in Acco. And that’s where my carpentry shop is.” I was quiet. So was he. I fingered the little piece of paper and wondered if it was really worth going to his shop. Acco sounded far enough away from all those who knew me and knew how worthless I am. “We’ll see…” I said quietly. “You’ll come, won’t you?” He offered me his hand. “I sense that you’ll come.” All I agreed to murmur back was another, “We’ll see.” And I didn’t shake his hand, either. But he was right. In the end, I came. To be continued…

Trump and Biden Debate Issues of Substance THE PULSE: On Thursday, October 22, President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden squared off in the second and final debate of this election cycle. Unlike the first debate, which mostly descended into bickering and shouting, the second debate focused on substantive issues. Some of the topics and the divergent views of the candidates will be highlighted below. COVID-19 RESPONSE: Joe Biden criticized the Trump administration’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Biden accused the president of a late reaction to the virus and of constantly downplaying its severity. Biden also called out the president for his failure to promote mask-
96 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
wearing and social distancing. Biden said he would not shut down the country but rather set policy based on scientists’ and epidemiologists’ advice. He argued that a proper economic recovery could not transpire before the virus is tamed. The president responded that Biden’s approach would inevitably shut down the economy and cause financial harm. He defended the approach of his administration in securing PPE and attaining ventilators. The president highlighted his administration’s work on therapeutics and vaccine development. The president also insisted that he quickly shut down travel to China when the virus first broke out. Biden’s approach to COVID-19 focuses primarily on halting the virus’s spread while the president’s strategy focuses on attempting to get the country back to normal and preventing economic damage. HEALTH CARE: President Trump promised to replace
the ACA/Obamacare with a much better health care system at a much lower price. The president promised that he would protect Americans with preexisting conditions. The president also claimed that should Biden win the election, America would transition to a system of socialized medicine. Joe Biden countered that the Trump administration is currently in court trying to get Obamacare overturned. He argued that millions of Americans would lose their insurance if the ACA is overturned, placing those with preexisting conditions at risk. Biden pointed out that the president has never presented a detailed health care plan in his four years in office. And in the two years that Republicans held complete control of the entire federal government, they failed to present a comprehensive plan to replace Obamacare. Biden also forcefully fought back against the notion that he is a proponent of socialized medicine. He argued that he ran against Medicare for All in the Democratic primary and won the primary. Biden asserted that while he opposes Medicare for All, he favors a public option that would allow Americans to buy into Medicare coverage if they chose to do so. RACE RELATIONS: President Trump touted his pol-
icy positions that have been beneficial for the African American community. He highlighted his administration’s work setting up opportunity zones in low-income neighborhoods, supporting historically black colleges, and the First Step Act’s successful passage. President Trump argued that Joe Biden’s support for the 1994 crime bill caused much harm to black communities. Biden hit back at Trump and accused him of demonizing the Black Lives Matter movement. He also slammed Trump for his failure to apologize for his attacks on the Central Park Five who were subsequently found innocent. ENVIRONMENT: The president attacked Biden and his
running mate Kamala Harris for their approach to environmental issues. He claimed that their environmental plans would be costly and hobble economic growth. He contended that Joe Biden would ban the extraction of shale oil and natural gas via fracking, and that under Biden, America would no longer be energy-independent. Biden countered that he has never advocated for banning fracking on private land. Biden argued that America must take a leading role on environmental issues. He claimed that a renewed focus on clean and renewable energy would be a source of economic strength and job creation. Biden pledged to rejoin the Paris climate accord and leverage being a participant to the treaty to ensure that all signatories abide by their commitments. Biden said that he would “transition away from the oil industry.” He qualified that statement by saying, “We are not going to get rid of fossil fuels.” IMMIGRATION: Biden hammered the president over his record on family separations at the border. Biden claimed that there are currently 545 children separated from their parents. He alleged that the government has lost track of
the parents and is unable to reunite them. Biden called the policy of child separation “criminal.” Biden also promised to reinstate the Deffered Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA) and provide a pathway for citizenship for those who have entered the country as children. Trump responded that many of the children who cannot be reunited with their parents were brought to the country by smugglers and not by their parents. He hit Biden for the Obama administration’s building of cage-like detention pens to hold illegal immigrants caught at the border. FOREIGN POLICY: President Trump argued that his tough-on-China tariffs had had the desired effect in reigning in the communist nation. He argued that his Phase One trade deal had brought tangible benefits to Americans, particularly in the area of intellectual property rights. Biden countered that our current trade deficit with China is more extensive than it has ever been. Furthermore, he claimed that tariffs placed on Chinese goods are paid by American consumers who pay more for imported goods, and not by the Chinese who export the goods. Biden alleged that Trump’s China policies have adversely affected American farmers and that soy farmers would have suffered economic ruin if not for the financial bailout they received from the Trump administration. Concerning North Korea, the president claimed that his dialogue with Kim Jong Un prevented the outbreak of hostilities on the Korean peninsula. He also took pride in his friendly relationship with the North Korean dictator. Biden argued that Trump cozied up to a mass murderer with little to show for it. He claimed that North Korea continues to test and develop missiles and that with relaxed American pressure on them, they are free to continue with their nefarious designs. HUNTER BIDEN: President Trump brought up a recently discovered laptop with emails that seemingly tie Joe Biden to some of his son’s business dealings in Ukraine. The president also highlighted the comments of Tony Bobulinski, a former associate of Hunter Biden, who backed up the contents of the emails. Biden responded that “I have not taken a penny from any foreign source, ever, in my life,” and that none of Hunter’s dealings were unethical. He labeled the allegations as Russian disinformation propaganda. He challenged the president to be forthcoming about his foreign entanglements by releasing his tax returns. Biden asserted that this election was ultimately not about his family or the president’s family, but rather the American family. THE IMPACT: The indisputable winner of the debate was the moderator Kristen Welkner. She received accolades from across the political spectrum for her even-handed temperament and her ability to keep the discussion informative and focused on the issues. President Trump turned in a solid performance. Many political observers felt that he strongly made his case without reverting to over-thetop rhetoric. He may have succeeded in winning over some undecided voters. Joe Biden also had a strong perfor-

mance and showed that he had a clear command of the issues. Both candidates had the performance that they needed to have. Trump showed that he could be presidential and made a case for reelection based on policy. Biden showed that he is not the frail, confused older man his opponents attempt to make him out to be. Both candidates checked the boxes they had to check, and there were no obvious gaffes or mess-ups. The viewership for the second debate dropped to 63 million, down from the 73 million that watched the first debate. The result was considered pretty much a draw, and it is unlikely that it will significantly impact the political environment in either direction.

administration achieved a breakthrough agreement between Israel and Sudan. This is the third agreement between Israel and an Arab country that his administration has brought to fruition. The Trump administration agreed to remove Sudan from the list of state sponsors of terror. Sudan agreed to pay $350 million in restitution to American victims of terror and their families. The agreement aroused opposition in Sudan, with the country’s largest party slamming the deal. The leader of the National Umma Party, former Prime Minister Sadiq al-Mahdi, said that he would oppose the deal. Sudan’s acting Foreign Minister Omar Qamar al-Din stressed that the legislature must still ratify the deal. Until the agreement is approved, normalization cannot become a reality. “This is an agreement to normalize. It is not yet normalization,” he said in a statement. THE IMPACT: The agreement with Sudan has the potential to be truly historic. Sudan declared war on Israel in the 1948 War of Independence and the 1967 Six-Day War. The Sudanese capital of Khartoum was the location of the infamous 1967 Arab League Khartoum Resolution of the Three Nos. “No peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, and no negotiations with Israel.” Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said that Sudan’s current agreement on the heels of agreements with the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain now comprises the Three Yeses. The proposed deal shows that President Trump places concern for Israel’s welfare and betterment at the center of his foreign policy agenda. The agreements with Arab countries that the Trump administration has cultivated have strengthened Israel’s position vis-a-vis the Palestinians. These deals also serve to blunt BDS activists’ efforts to isolate Israel in international forums.

SOUPS TO S AVO R
Hello, winter. Hello, hearty bowls of warm and comforting soup. There’s nothing like the homey comfort of enjoying a warming bowl of soup, especially when the cold creeps in; they’re spoonfuls of soothing goodness on chilly days. And they’re worth it just for the aromatic smells that permeate the house as they simmer and bubble on the stove. There are some soup recipes that require a long simmer, but not all soups have to be cooked for hours on end for a delicious final product. These homemade soups are actually some of the simplest recipes you can make.
THE MONSEY VIEW / 107
HEARTY SOUP 108 / THE MONSEY VIEW
HEARTY SOUP This recipe is, hands down, an absolute winner. This “supper-in-a-bowl-of-soup,” is super filling, super delicious, super easy and super different. Did I mention it’s a winner?

Add ground meat and cook until browned, making sure to crumble it. Set aside. 3. Add remaining tablespoon of oil to your pot, and add garlic, onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. 4. Whisk in chicken broth, water, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, ground meat, basil, oregano and thyme.

CAULIFLOWER SOUP 110 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
CAULIFLOWER SOUP This best-ever cauliflower soup is simple and delicious. A creamy, hearty and wonderfully cozy soup for those chilly nights.
INGREDIENTS 4 T. margarine or oil 4 cloves garlic, minced 2 onions, diced 4 carrots, peeled and diced 4 stalks celery, diced 30 oz. frozen cauliflower, roughly chopped 2 bay leaves (optional, but adds great flavor) ½ cup all-purpose flour 8 cups chicken broth (or 8 tsp. chicken consomme and 8 cups boiling water) 2 cups almond milk or coffee creamer Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste DIRECTIONS 1. In a 6-quart pot, melt margarine or oil over a medium-high flame. Add garlic, onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender. 2. Stir in cauliflower and bay leaves.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP 112 / THE MONSEY VIEW
BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP Butternut squash and cool weather go together like they were made for each other — which, really, they were.
INGREDIENTS 1 large butternut squash (about 3 pounds), halved vertically and deseeded 1 T. olive oil, plus more for drizzling Salt and pepper, divided ½ cup (about 1 large bulb) chopped shallot 4 garlic cloves, pressed or minced 1 tsp. maple syrup 3–4 cups vegetable broth, as needed (or 3–4 tsp. chicken consomme and 3–4 cups boiling water) 1–2 T. margarine, to taste Roasted sunflower seeds (optional) DIRECTIONS 1. Preheat the oven to 425°, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the butternut squash in the pan and drizzle each half with just enough olive oil to lightly coat the squash on the inside (about ½ teaspoon each). Rub the oil over the insides of the squash, and sprinkle it with salt and pepper. 2. Turn the squash facedown and roast until it is tender and completely cooked through, about 40 to 50 minutes (don’t worry if the skin or flesh browns — that’s good for flavor). Set the squash aside until it’s cool enough to handle. 3. Meanwhile, in a large soup pot, warm 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the chopped shallot and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the shallot has softened and is starting to turn golden at the edges, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, stirring frequently. 4. Use a large spoon to scoop the butternut squash into your pot. Discard the tough skin. Add the maple syrup and a few pinches of ground black pepper. Pour in 3 cups of vegetable broth. 5. Using an immersion blender, blend on high. Stop once the soup is ultra-creamy and warmed through. You can garnish the soup with some toasted sunflower seeds when serving.

In a 6-quart pot, bring broth to a boil over medium heat. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth. Gradually stir into broth. 2. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. 3.

My heart began to thrum with worry. Three of his knuckles were swollen to double their size. The dirty dishes and Magna-Tiles strewn all over the floor faded into the background. What was wrong with my child? It was during the mayhem of supper-bath-bedtime when my elevenyear-old son Shimmy approached me, a glimmer of worry in his blue eyes. “Ma, my knuckles are stiff,” he complained. I was stirring the soup absentmindedly when I took a look and stopped. The sight of his swollen knuckles got me nervous. They just didn’t look right. Our pediatrician checked it out and advised us to wait a bit before doing anything drastic. “Maybe they’re just bruised; give his fingers a chance to heal.” But the next few days found the swelling spreading to Shimmy’s other hand, and our feeling of unease intensified. It was uncomfortable and strange and really getting in the way. We had to get to the root of the issue. Shimmy was tested for strep and Lyme disease, but all the bloodwork came back negative. Confusion and anxiety hung over us like a heavy storm cloud. Our next step was a top rheumatologist in Columbia Hospital. As we entered, I hoped this visit would provide the answer we so desperately sought for my child in pain, but I couldn’t have imagined the dreary diagnosis.
October 28, 2020 / THE MONSEY VIEW / 121 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
After checking Shimmy’s fingers, the rheumatologist lifted her eyes to look at us, as if weighing her words. C’mon, tell us already! I thought impatiently. “We will have to do a lot of bloodwork to be sure,” she stated, “but it looks to me like serious juvenile arthritis. This can come from stress or heart problems…” The doctor continued listing information and statistics, but I tuned her out. Arthritis? It couldn’t be! Her voice was impassioned as she prepared ten (ten!) vials to take blood from my son’s skinny arm. “It won’t get better; we can only work to keep it under control.” As my heart thudded in alarm, she declared that the arthritis would likely spread to Shimmy’s feet, leading to trouble with walking in addtion to writing. Unfortunately, steroids and other strong medications with long-lasting effects would be our only option to keep this monster at bay. We left the rheumatologist’s office feeling terrified. I looked at my son, his blond head lowered. How could it be? He had been so healthy and full of life just mere days ago. Now we were waiting in the dark for a diagnosis that might change his life forever. We were also directed to a cardiologist, in whose office Shimmy lay, pale as a puppet, while an EKG was performed, belying the exuberance he’d displayed just a week before. It was late that night when I poured out my worries to my best sounding boards, aka my dear sisters. One of them piped up and asked, “Dina, why don’t you try Sar-
WHAT IS THE SARNO METHOD? Dr. John Sarno was a wellknown specialist in rehabilitation medicine during the late 1900s. He came up with a revolutionary concept that would transform thousands of lives. He believed that a person’s brain uses pain to distract them from experiencing and dealing with negative emotions. We may not want to think about the fact that we hate our job or are struggling with money, so we focus on our physical pain instead. This can then manifest itself in a variety of debilitating symptoms, including chronic back pain, gastrointestinal issues and fibromyalgia. Dr. Sarno also believed that pain is caused by decreased oxygen and blood flow to muscles and nerves, and that the brain keeps the oxygen away to create that pain. He called this “tension myoneural syndrome,” or TMS. He believed that most people could conquer their discomfort simply by recognizing its psychosomatic roots and then acting upon that knowledge. Therefore, he encouraged his patients to keep a journal or seek therapy that would enable them to have a clearer understanding of their repressed emotions. Once they accepted and worked on these hidden troubles, he said, their pain would magically disappear. Another novel piece of advice he gave for back pain was to resume all physical activity. As a reminder, Dr. Sarno stated, “It is important to see a medical professional before starting this treatment approach to rule out any serious medical condition.” Although there were many naysayers who ridiculed him at first, his idea gained huge popularity over the years, as patients worldwide thanked Sarno for giving them a new lease on life after all else had failed. Research has established a concrete mind-body connection, with effective techniques offering faster and complete relief for stress-related medical issues. Channeling your brain to overcome your pain can change your life.

no’s method?” (See sidebar for more details.) “For arthritis?” My voice was unsure. We had grown up with belief in the “Sarno system,” and it had actually entered my mind as a solution — but I’d quickly dismissed it, thinking it wouldn’t help in Shimmy’s case. Our introduction to this technique came when my father underwent back surgery for a slipped disc, only to have the agony return full force a couple of years later. He was introduced to Sarno’s method at the time, actually meeting the doctor in person, and had never looked back. Later, he found out that the majority of backaches, unless there are other symptoms involved, are the outcome of suppressed emotions and stress. Now I looked at the inky-black sky dotted with shining stars. We would try this. We had to try this. I yearned to see the glow back in Shimmy’s eyes.
After checking Shimmy’s fingers, the rheumatologist lifted her eyes to look at us, as if weighing her words. I had heard of a kind chassidish man named Mr. Illowitz, who had thrown himself into helping people reach recovery through the steps Dr. Sarno established. Mr. Illowitz had set up a telephone line, where for $99 one could listen to clear and detailed explanations of the method in Yiddish or English. There were also teleconferences every few weeks, homework to guide listeners further, and a “statement” to recite. I reached out to Mr. Illowitz, and to my surprise, he emphatically directed us to go for it, arthritis and all. He was confident that with this and our tefillos, Shimmy’s symptoms would soon be gone. The only obstacle was that the program was geared to ages twelve and up, and my son was eleven. Still, I knew that Shimmy’s emotional intelligence and maturity were way beyond his actual age, so with hope in our hearts, we decided to go ahead. Shimmy listened intently to the recordings and did the homework diligently each day. Since he is quite emotionally aware, he was able to reach the deepest recesses of his inner self. We learned that pain can be caused by repressed emotions or unpleasant feelings. The brain wants us to feel happy, so it deprives oxygen from a physical part of the body so we will focus on that instead of on the demons within us. It usually happens to perfectionists and people-pleasers. For example, Shimmy used to study with a weaker boy before bechinos or tests, but then he would feel resentful that he lost out on his own growth and fun with his group of friends. Now he had to accept those feelings buried deep inside. I cheered him on and told him that the thoughts he wrote were for his eyes only, and that he could tear them up afterward. He would also recite a “statement” every day. It read “Physically, there is nothing wrong with me; I am healthy as any boy my age. It’s only stress! … I

myself to do it for his sake. There was no discussion, no thinking, no ruminating and no worrying, just a soft reminder of the daily homework. At the end of the second week, I finally took a good, geshmak look at Shimmy’s fingers — and gaped. They were basically back to their regular shape and size! “Thank You, Hashem!” I whispered, overcome with gratitude. Over two years have passed since that fateful time. The arthritis did not spread, nor did it ever come back. Instead, it has been completely healed! I sometimes imagine going back to the rheumatologist who told us that it would not get better, that he would need powerful steroids. If only she could see my thriving son now, our budding pride and joy. Since then life has continued, with its fair share of bumps along its ride. I have found myself employing Sarno’s method for my own back pain that flared up during this corona period, after my last baby. I have the “statement” hanging on my kitchen wall, and my five-year-old runs around saying “I have stress!” I educate even my younger children about this mind-body connection and work on discovering the root causes of minor aches and pains. I love telling and retelling my miracle story and can sincerely say that there are no drawbacks when working with this method. Nevertheless, it is hard work to open oneself up to vulnerabilities and completely believe in being healed. Many people prefer a quick-fix Tylenol for a heavy migraine or the like. It’s usually when one is at their wits’ end and nothing else is working that people stumble upon this wonder remedy and feel whole once again. Also, a great side benefit that this brings is the awareness of and the ability to sort out one’s emotions. It’s important to know that sometimes, at the least stressful times, the pain will intensify. The reason for this is simple. Come Pesach time, my middle-aged neighbor is as joyous and energetic as ever. Her children and einiklach bounce around, eating and laughing and sharing the bond called family. She feels great. But a week after yom tov ends, she always comes down with intense migraines. Her brain notices that life has calmed down, that there are fewer distractions, and so it increases her physical pain to ensure that she won’t have the headspace to accept the fact that her son-in-law is lazy, that she has gained too much weight, and so on. The journey is constant, but every day I lift my eyes heavenward and thank Hashem for His guiding hand that has enabled us to unleash the freedom deep within so that we can embrace His goodness with outstretched arms.
I looked at the inky-black sky dotted with shining stars. We would try this. We had to try this. won’t allow you to take over...” Two long weeks passed, and we saw no change. I felt a hopeless feeling bubble inside me and quickly dialed Mr. Illowitz. “It’s not working!” I complained. “His fingers look just the same!” “But why are you thinking about it?” he chastised me. “Why are you checking them out? The worry is passing to your son.” He ordered me to completely erase my concerns from my mind. “Lach dich ois — laugh it off!” he instructed. Now I had to work on myself. If I was anxiously awaiting results, they weren’t going to arrive so easily. Boy, this was going to be a challenge. I set myself a goal of two weeks. I literally held back from looking at Shimmy so I wouldn’t be tempted to look at his hands. It was grueling, but I forced

Ever watched a really good argument between two people blessed with personal conviction? You listen to the first one and you nod, “Yes! Yes! That’s exactly how I feel! YES!” Then the next person picks up the mic, and suddenly your head is doing that same jog in place again. “Yes! Yes! I mean… I don’t know how, but you’re right, too!” Let’s talk about a parent favorite: sleep routines. We’ll share some helpful tidbits and common wisdom — and then we’ll also add a “but” to each one... Ready?
ADEQUATE SLEEP IS CRUCIAL
Okay, but you knew that already. For some of us it took longer than others to admit that lack of sleep for us — forget about the kids — is the difference between our kids having a witch for a mother or… well, a mother. And we’re adults. So I think we’re all in agreement about how important adequate sleep is for our children, too. What we heatedly argue about, then, is not if it’s important, but how important. Is it more important than the child’s social life? Should we force a child into bed when he’s not tired? Should we call in our children while the rest of their friends are still playing outside? And what about (brace yourselves, ladies, it’s coming) teenagers?
and there is no need to fight for every task to get done. Sure, setting the routine in place initially might be hard, but the benefits are reaped big-time. THE “BUT”: There is a critical difference between routine and rigidity, and it’s not always easy to tell the two apart.
BEDTIME ROUTINE FOR DUMMIES
Honestly, I always kind of secretly mocked mothers who would wax poetic about rigid bedtime routines. I figured either they were still under the age of 27 (the approximate developmental stage when you think you got parenting and shalom bayis down pat and wish you could teach the rest of the world), or they were too rigid for their own good. It took my sister about fifteen years and seven kids, but she finally convinced me to try. What can I tell you, it works. But you really do have to be rigid. It really does need to be that same boring, unchanging routine. Every. Single. Night. So point number one is: No, you do not need to be a “routine kind of person” for it to work. It just works, regardless of who you are. In a nutshell, you need to create a very, very set routine
Back to the pillow, bottle, hand it back to Mommy, turn to the wall, and — poof! The kid is sleeping.
ROUTINE IS A BOUNDARY By now we are all aware that boundaries make our children feel safer. Well, what do you know, a sleep routine is a boundary too. A child whose day is orderly and predictable is a far happier and calmer child. And this boundary is amazing for the mother, too — bedtime becomes smooth,
132 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
that takes at least fifteen minutes and is implemented at the same time every night. (I know, right?) In our house, it’s baths (okay, I’ll admit we don’t do baths every night), pajamas, put clothes in hamper (sigh, I just lied again), brush teeth, get into bed. Choose two books, bedtime story. Wiggle onto Mommy’s lap, Krias Shema, goodnight hug and kiss. Back to the pillow, bottle, hand it back to Mommy, turn to the wall, and — poof! The kid is sleeping. I know, it sounds impossible, but it really does work. Until you decide to drop storytime just for tonight because it’s a busy night. Then you’ll spend two hours convincing your kid that he’s not really hungry and thirsty and bored and get-back-into-bed-I-said!
Live and Breathe Freely Yoga and meditation to help you feel better every day!
MOMMY SUBSTITUTE I probably shouldn’t share this tip, because I’m all for children having as much mommy-time as possible. Bedtime routines usually impose that, and that’s wonderful. However, if storytime doesn’t work for you, or you want to move on to the next child faster, you can have one step include a CD in bed. Once the children get used to it, it will lull them to sleep. To counteract the diminished mommy-time, I used to record myself as I read the children stories. Then the children would fall asleep listening to my stories (and whatever tidbits of hashkafah the ensuing conversations included) again. The added benefit was that no matter what my day was like and how harried and unfriendly I was when I sent them to bed, what they fell asleep to was my calm, loving voice telling them stories...

I use the same routine for my eightand ten-year-olds, too, except we do games and 21 Questions and thankYou-Hashem and best-thing-that-happened-today instead of storytime (and sometimes storytime too). And then they have to make a face when Mommy gives them a kiss. That’s part of the routine too. And you know what the greatest benefit is? You’re going to start loving bedtime. Because, hey, it’s a predictable routine for you, too! You know when it starts, what it entails, and when it’s going to end. Bedtime is no longer an endless exercise in futility and mommy-guilt. It’s your most precious, calm time with the kids, when you actually get to look at them and listen to them and enjoy just being a mommy for a few minutes. (Some of you are nodding reading this. The others are thinking that this sounds like something someone would write when they know that thousands of people are going to read her thoughts on the pages of a magazine. But, yes, believe me, it really is this life-changing.) THE “BUT”: You will become “that” sister-in-law. The one who everyone rolls eyes at when she can’t join the family shalosh seudos because “Chaim needs to sleep at six.”
READY FOR THE CLOCK CHANGE? Watching the kids still tearing around the house when it’s completely dark outside and knowing you’ll have to get them used to a new bedtime now that the clock has changed can seem agonizingly impossible. Try viewing it technically instead. It’s going to happen; you just need to decide on the approach most suited to your personality:
1. DON’T LET IT HAPPEN! When the kids were younger, I never understood mothers’ complaints about “getting kids back on schedule.” I never let them off it to begin with! Come whatever the seasonal change was, I was one gloating mom. (For about eight years, any-
134 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
way.) If your kids are in the right age bracket, this may work.
2. CHILL IT! If you’re the sort, you don’t need me to elaborate (and it’s also a bit dangerous for the faint of heart among the rest of us). You’re likely already raising an eyebrow at this article. The kids aren’t used to the new schedule? Give it a few days, it’ll happen. In the worst
case they’ll be a bit tired. It’s all good.
3. GRADUAL DOES IT. You might still prefer to have your yamim tovim schedule more relaxed and summer bedtime later — but it doesn’t have to be all of it. Start thinking of whatever new change you want to implement two weeks in advance, and slowly nudge your way forward just a bit more every night.
A FEW GENERAL TIPS: A. PREPARE THE KIDS. Bedtime is part of the day. It’s not a capricious spur-of-the-moment decision because Mommy needs her quiet. Remind your kids early on that “today we are going to sleep early,” so that at 7 p.m., the news doesn’t come as a shock. Give ten-minute reminders before each subsequent step.
B. PUT THE HOUSE INTO SLEEP MODE. Shut the lights. Lock the teenagers into their rooms with a strict nophones-now policy. (Always a nice idea, anyway.)
C. PHYSICALLY HELP THEM. Take the kids’ hands and lead them toward the bath. For the first few times, at least, do the routines with them. For very visual kids, a picture chart of their bedtime routine can be helpful.
D. SHOW THEM IT’S WORTH IT. When they wake up in the morning, comment on how refreshed they are going to be today and how good it feels when we’ve had enough sleep. Do not say this on a cranky day to “prove” how miserable it is to have inadequate sleep (I admit I always fall for this). We are all more motivated from feel-good connections than from pointing out our less-picturesque moments. And say this to yourself, too. Half our bad mommy moments are rooted in the guilt we feel for shooing our kids into bed in the middle of their game. Remember that you are not doing this for yourself — it’s good for them. If you are confident that you are giving them a gift, you will project that confidence. THE “BUT”: We get excited when something works. But we also need to remember that our kids do grow up, as I discovered when my son pointed out (for the 54th time, but it was the first time I listened) that he was still going to sleep at 7 p.m., and, well, at nine years old his bedtime was allowed to change.

“MOMMY, I CAN’T SLEEP!”
Some children have a much harder time falling asleep than others. Contrary to what our guilty conscience tells us, it usually has nothing to do with us doing something “wrong” early on. Some kids simply have a harder time winding down. To help them, first try to assess what’s going on. The solution will be very different if your child is not falling asleep because he’s afraid of the dark than if the room temperature is making him uncomfortable. (Another thing to consider: Is this bothering them, or only you?) • For most children (not all!), quick visits on your part will make winding down less frightening. • This may seem obvious, but make sure the lights are off and the noise level in the house is low. And FOMO is a big issue for younger kids in our typically large families. • Do not allow your child to look at any screen — yes, even our kosher phones! — for at least an hour before going to bed. • Avoid giving large meals close to bedtime. • Make sure the play closer to bedtime is of the quieter variety (because your kids generally consult with you first, I know). • Children with special needs or long-term illnesses typi-
136 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
cally find it more difficult to fall asleep or sleep through the night. A doctor or sleep expert can offer some valuable advice, or medication if necessary. • Sleep disorders do exist!
Sometimes none of the standard things work. As the mother, you will intuit if your child is having a harder time than would seem “normal.” Sometimes difficulty falling asleep is the result of the child struggling to process a significant event. Trust your intuition. And remember: Your child does not need to have significant “issues” for you to consult with a sleep specialist.
TO SLEEP OR NOT TO SLEEP, THAT IS THE QUESTION. There is so much debate out there regarding assistive devices such as white noise machines, melatonin and other sleep assists. Are they helpful? Sure. No one claims they aren’t. For some families, they’re game-changing. At the same time, they often create dependency (and many times are tried before softer methods), so the conclusion isn’t at all clear-cut. Like any other decision, it is extremely personal and depends on so many factors. Personally, I’ve never used any of these methods. But your home is different from mine. Nobody can tell anyone else what to do. The thing is, that applies to us, too. Sometimes we “tell” ourselves the “right” thing to do… except that it doesn’t work. As obvious as this may seem, we do sometimes need to remind ourselves: Do something only if it works. Every child is different. Every parent is different. Ergo, our parenting styles and rules will vary from household to household — and within the same household, from child to child. We don’t really need a manual (or this article). And with this pompous statement explaining to you why you just spent twenty minutes reading an article you might not really need, I shall conclude. Riki Schreiber, Eretz Yisroel, 2:30 a.m.

Joel (Yoilish) Felsen
The world of Yiddish-language media has undergone a significant shift over the last fifteen years. Political analyses were once only found in the handful of Yiddish weekly newspapers, and the information was often superficial in nature. With the success of the Kol Mevaser hotline and online platforms, the deluge of daily news pamphlets handed out in shuls, and the rise of information available at large, a savvy world of Yiddish political analyses has emerged — with an avid fan base of listeners to match it. Yoilish Felsen, a chassidish yungerman who grew up in Williamsburg, has been one of the stars of this genre, but his impact on the Yiddish-speaking world goes far beyond this niche expertise. In addition to his work as one of the the leading fundraisers at the renowned RCCS chesed organization, Felsen’s broadcasts on Kol Mevaser — his informative talks, his business and self-improvement advice, and his Ziben Menit Mit Yoilish (Seven Minutes With Yoilish) daily recording — have become extremely popular with listeners of all ages. With the 2020 election fast approaching, we caught up with Mr. Felsen to hear his story and get some unique insight into what to expect come November 3.
RCCS Fundraiser, Public Speaker, Kol Mevaser Commentator and Interviewer
How did you become one of the popular voices in Yiddish media?
This Week:
Growing up, I was always a curious observer and an avid reader. After my marriage, I enjoyed writing recreationally, but I was a salesman by trade. In the mid-2000s, I did sales work for the then-fledgling Kol Mevaser, but with the hotline’s great success, there was soon no need for my work, as advertisers proactively reached out to place ads. Eventually, one of the prominent commentators asked me to join him in conversations covering a variety of topics, and from there things kept on growing until I started recording my own broadcasts.

We are excited to present the second installment of our new weekly column in which we give readers a glimpse into the lives of notable members of the community. You know about them; now get to know them.
Did you originally cover politics or general issues?
It was a mix at first. Over time, I turned into the unofficial left-leaning voice on the hotline. It wasn’t by design, but because most people in the community lean right, my political views as a Yid who relates to the plight of minorities, refugees and the poor stood out. For a few years I carried this mantle, but I eventually noticed that the majority of people don’t appreciate hearing the other side of things, and I was just inviting negative feedback. I have since transitioned to featuring more general analyses and informative content instead of polarizing political opinions. What recordings do you currently have on Kol Mevaser?
My most popular content is the daily seven-minute recording titled Ziben Menit Mit Yoilish. It generally runs a little longer than seven minutes, but if I’d give it the more accurate name of “ten minutes with Yoilish,” it would inevitably run fifteen minutes long… I use this platform to share history, news, general knowledge, observations and the like. I’ve, baruch Hashem, been getting very positive feedback, and it’s very humbling to know that thousands of people make my musings a part of their daily routine. Another feature I am a part of is the “Experience and Success” section on Kol Mevaser. These broadcasts feature interviews with leading businessmen and influential individuals who share with listeners the steps they can take toward success. I’ve personally learned a lot from these interviews as well. I also partake in a weekly parent-
146 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
ing and chinuch conversation on Kol Mevaser with R’ Sholom Yaakov Wosner, a respected mechanech who offers tips and advice. There are additional features in the works that I am excited to roll out to the public in the near future. What can you tell us about your speaking engagements off the hotline?
Over time, I developed a passion for helping motivate people and guiding them toward self-improvement and responsible decision-making. I realized that there is an eagerness for such information in the community, and I committed myself to being part of the solution. My work has been very well received, and today people call me to speak to yeshivah boys or at business conferences, and I’ve also been invited to be chairman at melaveh malkahs and other events. I recently chaired a large business expo, and I got great feedback from people who were pleased to hear from a heimish person who can relate to their unique experiences. What kind of results do you see from these lectures?
Many struggling people fall into a state of yi’ush (despair), and the right motivation often goes a long way.
There was a yungerman who told me that he knew he needed to get rid of his smartphone, which was distracting him from succeeding in life, but he kept pushing it off. He heard one of my talks where I mentioned that once you make up your mind to do something, no matter the reason, don’t go back and relitigate the decision when it’s time to act on it. That same day he traded in his phone, and his life has been much better for it. You often mention your work for RCCS. What is your position there?
I am a fundraiser for the organization. For those who are unfamiliar, RCCS has an annual budget of over $13 million! The team helps cancer patients and their families with insurance premiums, referrals, medical assistance and anything else they might need. As someone who does interviews, I spent my early days at the organization speaking to people and getting firsthand accounts of how they help families in crisis. I was very moved by what I heard, and I am still constantly blown away by the incredible chesed efforts of the RCCS team. I cannot think of a greater job in the world than what I do there. You are a man who wears many hats. Which job title do you most identify with?
People in the community might associate me with my commentary work, but I do think of my position at RCCS as my primary identity. I want to be known and remembered for this work that truly makes a positive impact every day on people who are so vulnerable and lost. I know that in our current environment, many have lost track of
8452849777
this, but politics is mostly supposed to be a distraction. Helping Yidden in need is deeply personal and meaningful!
people were overly confident that Clinton could rely on a “blue wall” in those crucial areas. So I’d say that the best lesson is not to fall prey to recency bias and assume that the errors will play out the same way. Biden can just as well outperform his already strong polling numbers. I should also note that in the 2018 midterm elections, Democrats largely met or exceeded their polling margins.
* * * * * By the time people read this interview, it’ll be only days before the election. Can you share with us your view on the race?
Actually, the election is already well underway... Tens of millions of early ballots — both mail-in and in-person — have already been cast, and it is estimated that by November 3 we will be well over 50% of the total 2016 vote! But to answer your question, it’s important to zoom out and see the race for what it is: Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden has been leading President Trump in the polls by a consistent 6% to 10% for a year now. Trump is a clear underdog, and it’ll probably take a polling error and a late shift toward Trump among undecideds, third-party voters and leaners for him to win. Wasn’t this the case in 2016 as well? He’s already pulled it off once.
It is understandable for people to feel this way, but there are a few notable differences that I’ll point out. First, in 2016 the polls — even those that showed Clinton well ahead in the race — indicated that there were many undecided voters left. When these voters went overwhelmingly to Trump, it put him over the top by small margins in the three crucial states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. This time around, Biden is polling over 50% in many states, and there are fewer undecideds left. Second, Clinton wasn’t well liked — unlike Biden — and there were a number of times
148 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
throughout the race where Trump was actually ahead of her in the polls. That hasn’t been the case this time, which makes it more likely that the polling lead will hold. I should add that the Comey letter about the reopening of the Clinton email investigation just eleven days before the election played a big role in her loss. On one hand, it appears unlikely that it will happen again, but it does go to show that you can never be too certain in advance. So do you think Trump has almost no chance?
No, I wouldn’t go so far as to say that. The expert campaign modelers give him about a 10% chance, which sounds about right. For a comparison, the most popular model, from Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight, had Trump at about 30% late in the 2016 race and has him at 12% today. That’s very different from having no chance, though. What can be learned from the 2016 polling error?
That’s a very good question. People have a tendency to remember what happened last and put too much focus on it. Those who remember the 2012 election will recall that President Obama actually exceeded his polling numbers in 2012, especially in the Midwest. This was part of the reason
But isn’t it possible that there’s something unique about Trump that makes him more likely to overperform his polling numbers?
There is one clear advantage he had in the past election, one that has been addressed this time around: Trump did very well with uneducated white voters in 2016, and these people generally don’t answer polls at the same rate as their educated peers. The highquality pollsters now weigh their polls by adjusting for education the same way they do for race, age and other factors. That being said, there might always be a different error in his favor. How about the idea that some Trump voters will not admit to pollsters that they’re voting for a president who, in the media, is considered toxic?
This phenomenon is referred to as “shy Trump voters” and it makes some sense on the surface, but there are a number of reasons not to buy it. Some polls, when aiming to make sure that they get a representative sample, will ask people whom they voted for last time. This means that people are already admitting to having voted for Trump and are then asked for their choice. It is also possible to compare online and live caller polls to see if people give a different answer when they’re not speaking to a person. Studies have shown that there isn’t much of a difference. Further, even in 2016,
there wasn’t a polling error toward Trump in solidly blue states where this effect should have theoretically been most pronounced. In sum, this phenomenon appears to be without evidence. Some Trump supporters will argue that the president has surely won over some doubters with how the U.S. was doing pre-COVID, as well as other promises he kept. Together with his existing base, shouldn’t that put him over the top?
UNLEASH YOUR CREATIVITY!
If this were a traditional presidency, I would agree. Most incumbents overseeing a good economy are clear favorites. And Trump also deserves credit for being a fresh perspective that has enabled peace deals and provided a much-needed shake-up in the international arena. But the reason he isn’t getting the traditional boost is because instead of running a campaign and appealing to the people in the middle, he has doubled down on exciting his own base and ignored what’s actually popular. To give just one example: Obamacare has a high approval rating today, yet his administration is currently before the Supreme Court trying to get it nullified on a technicality. That’s not a winning recipe. How will early voting impact the election?
The Democrats have put a tremendous focus on early voting, and so far it seems to be paying major dividends. The Republicans will probably dominate Election Day voting. While it’s generally much better to have a sure vote in the bag early, there are always some mail ballots rejected and it’s possible that the GOP will be able to nullify a number of mail-in ballots on legal technicalities. We’ll have to see how it plays out. What advice do you have for the frum community before this election?
One word: VOTE! It doesn’t matter who you vote for in a blue state like New York, but it does matter that you make your voice heard. Another thing I want to note: I know most readers are strongly pro-Trump and would be very disappointed if, in fact, Biden does manage to win. But I want them to know that America is a very large, bureaucratic country, and things don’t change so easily under a new president. Many conservatives threatened to leave if Obama won, and many liberals did the same in 2016. They all stayed — and the face of America didn’t change much. If someone knew nothing about politics, he could go his entire life without knowing that the parties in power have shifted back and forth. Under Biden, very little in our day-to-day lives would change.

Hyperactivity, lack of inhibition, poor impulse control: Do these behaviors bear any association or relevance to adult life? Presumably not. Adults are individuals who don’t step out of the clearly delineated boundaries of conformity. They are always on their best behavior, they follow through, they keep all of their personal emotions guarded under lock and key, and their round-the-clock mannerisms can be ticked off on a checklist of perfection and emotional regulation. Perfectly aligned and precisely executed — isn’t that adult life? Yes, there’s a hyperactive child. Gets explosive when triggered. Throws and yells and does dangerous stuff, and has tantrums reaching a level of abnormal volume and intensity. But after all, he’s a child, right? The H in ADHD stands for hyperactivity. Adults can be hyperactive too (although their reactions and actions are different from a child’s hyperactive behavior). To that end, adults (and children) who are “gifted” with the H 154 / THE MONSEY VIEW / October 28, 2020 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
factor can explode, lack the skills to use forethought and restraint, and their interpersonal relationships will definitely suffer. But when the hyperactivity is channeled correctly, it can be an asset to daily living and success. With this in mind, let’s reassess and redefine the term ADHD. Let’s define it as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Difference (not Disorder). ADHD, when treated and addressed appropriately, is just a difference. The ADHDer has to learn how to live and thrive with his differences so that he can accomplish, or even surpass, his peers.
USHI’S STORY: Picture the following scenario: In an effort to speed the wait process at an upscale affair, a waiter devises an ingenious plan. He’ll hold twelve plates at once and serve the guests in an extremely efficient manner. So he stacks the plates and sets out to execute his brainstorm. The result? Shattered glass and china, steaks and side dishes falling onto exclusive table linen and the ballroom floor, soiling and staining the guests’ finery
with the mess. Well, that was my life. I also had the illusion that I could hold twelve different plates at once. I could be a serial entrepreneur, hold key positions on several boards, and be the go-to mover and shaker for anything and everything. And the truth was, I did possess a high-level voltage of energy and creativity, and my capabilities were definitely impressive. So why was it, I often wondered, that there were constantly signals that things were heading in the wrong direction? Why was it that so many details in my personal, communal and business life were frequently going haywire? I remembered the time that I gathered all my married siblings, on a whim, and announced that we were going to surprise my parents with a mini-vacation for their anniversary. We were going to travel by plane, stay at a posh hotel, and spend a weekend there together to celebrate this special occasion. This vacation would be all-expenses paid,
October 28, 2020 / THE MONSEY VIEW / 155 www.themonseyview.com / 845.600.8484
thanks to me, the generous brother/son. I couldn’t understand why their reaction was lukewarm, even bordering on anger. Here are some of the responses I got: “But, Ushi, the anniversary’s tonight, and it’s Thursday afternoon! How can we make it there in time for Shabbos?” my sister protested, practically hysterical. “What about a program?” my levelheaded younger brother asked in his gratingly eventempered voice. “Don’t you know arrangements for kids have to be made at least three days in advance?” My oldest sister was highly annoyed. I heard them all out and couldn’t understand why they were so ungrateful. But I had to admit that their concerns were relevant and rational. I really hadn’t planned a program, nor taken any of the logistics into account. My emotions were also sorely lacking an internal thermostat. I could become excited, angry or heated in an instant, and my reactions would mirror my feelings. I had a heart of gold, but would often overreact. When overwhelmed with feelings of compassion, I sometimes donned a life vest and tried to “save” people from drowning in the waves of tragedy or debt. I couldn’t understand why my efforts were sometimes rebuffed or even made matters worse (though there were times when I did prove to be a lifesaver). In retrospect, I realize that I do have the ability to save lives, but
all pertinent paperwork for this transaction, and he grimaced. “Did you research this matter? Did you look into projected profit and loss? Do you know what the assets are versus the outstanding debt? Did you do your due diligence or at least contact a financial analyst?” he queried. I could not understand him. Did he lack basic comprehension? This was “the deal of the century!" “I am going to research this properly,” he said finally. And that is when I lost it. “We need to close on this NOW!” I yelled. “If you refuse, you’re fired.” More angry words followed, and to make a long story short, my secretary packed up his belongings and bid my firm goodbye. I didn’t bat an eyelash. My lack of control and inhibition didn’t allow me to be rational. “Good for him,” I thought. “So be it. I’ll eat this money pie and relish all the deliciousness of this sweet deal by myself, without leaving him even one single crumb or meager slice of money or pleasure.” Right then and there, I was prepared to wire the money to my business associate. But because I have little patience for small print and pertinent details and am not the type to cross all the t’s and dot all the i’s, the transaction failed. My faithful secretary left my firm, and although I recruited several new workers in his stead, they couldn’t
I could be a serial entrepreneur, hold key positions on several boards, and be the go-to mover and shaker for anything and everything. all the details have to be discussed with professionals beforehand, and executed in a manner that is sensitive, thoughtout and purposeful. * * * * *
Then came the day when everything changed. A business associate called me up with a “once-in-a-lifetime” offer. He wanted me to partner with him and become a shareholder in a failing pharmaceutical chain. “We’ll rebrand and get this business back on track. I’m telling you, this is an offer that you can’t refuse.” I got very excited and was ready to sign the dotted line immediately. My (former) devoted secretary was my right-hand man. I asked him to prepare
Think of a machine lacking a button or other mechanism to shut it off. Think of a vehicle that cannot be stopped. Now think of a brain that lacks impulse control. The ADHDer responds differently to stimulus than the average human being does. The trajectory of a typical individual when experiencing stimulus is as follows: STIMULUS (something happened) -----> STOP (thinks, contemplates, self-monitors, reflects and asks himself: How should I react? What is the best thing to do in this situation?) -----> RESPONSE. In contrast, the hyperactive individual follows a different pathway: STIMULUS, and immediately -----> RESPONSE. The good news is that a large percentage of activists and inventors were ADHDers. Often, all that is left for the hyperactive adult is to embrace his difference, incorporate a plan, and soar!

One day, my wise uncle came to visit me in my office. Over coffee, I found myself confiding my frustrations and failure to him. “Ushi,” he said contemplatively, “will you be angry at me if I tell you the truth to your face?” With my agreement, he put all the cards on the table. He told me that he believed I was super-gifted, but that I did have an issue that, time and again, was proving to be my biggest asset — and at the same time, my biggest liability. “You have boundless energy, which makes you second to none,” my uncle noted. “But on the other hand, you have a lack of inhibition. Let’s call your issue a lever, off-switch or traffic sign. Your brain does not tell you when to stop and redirect.” I mulled over his words, and examined my personality in the mirror of truth. “Ushi, it’s time,” he said. “Coaching was created for successful people like you. I have a successful business and always strive to bring it to the next level; that’s why I have a business coach. Make an appointment with an ADHD coach, and your great life will become even greater.”

Coaching has taught me how to harness my incredible abilities. It has helped me take a step back, taught me how to deep-breathe, and gives me the tools to reevaluate and reroute my life, every step of the way. Even more so, I now believe that often a step back is a step forward. Does it hinder me from accomplishing great things? Not in the least. Now I can undertake projects, spearhead life-saving initiatives, be the loving and considerate family man of my dreams, and accomplish the impossible in my business dealings — all because of my clarity of thought and emotional equilibrium. I get the best of both worlds: boundless energy and creativity, and the unique gift of being thought-out and responsible. And whenever I feel that my brain needs a tune-up, I can always call my coach and get my life back on track.

Most people can easily conjure up an image visually. Just mention the beach, and they can see it all in their mind: the sand glistening in the sunlight, the waves softly crashing onto the shore, the sea gulls lapping about…. But some people can’t. Their mind’s eye is blind. They close their eyes and are met with a black space of nothingness.
WHILE APHANTASIACS CAN CONCEPTUALIZE AN IMAGE IN THEIR MIND, AND EVEN DESCRIBE IT IN DETAIL, THEY CANNOT ACTUALLY SEE IT. Are you from the minority that has aphantasia? Let’s see... Close your eyes and visualize a red star. Now look at the bottom right corner of the page. What picture appeared in your mind? Is #1 all you saw? Is your mind blank? If yes, welcome to the world of aphantasia. If you’re still not sure, close your eyes and visualize an apple. If you see anything, even vague outlines or darkened images, you do not have aphantasia. Only a dark black “void” signifies the condition.
Aphantasia was already stumbled upon many years ago by English scientist Francis Galton, who in a report titled Statistics of Mental Imagery invited people to visualize a breakfast table full of food. “To my astonishment,” he writes, “I found that the great majority of the
men of science to whom I first applied protested that mental imagery was unknown to them, and they looked

imagery’ really expressed what I believed everybody supposed them to mean. They had no more notion of its true nature than a colour-blind man who has not discerned his defect has of the nature of colour.” (Galton, 1880) When he spoke to members of the “general society,” he was suddenly regaled with visually rich imagery coloring the minds of his subjects.

supposing that the words ‘mental
By: Shevy Hollander
The concept remained largely unexplored for the next 130 years. And then, in the early 2000s, a patient of neurologist Adam Zeman of England, who under the cloak of anonymity was only referred to as MX, had a curious experience post-op. Suddenly, he found, he could not visualize his family members in his mind, could not be transported to a visual utopia while reading fiction books, and his dreams were black — imageless. The case was a fascinating phenomenon, but even more powerful was the reaction to this study, which was released in 2010. Because while MX actually regained his ability to visualize,
After reading about MX’s peculiar case, many people — among them Blake Ross, cofounder of Firefox — were amused that the patient felt he’d lost a run-of-the-mill ability. Wasn’t it a supernatural ability he’d had to begin with? They found it ludicrous to think that people actually saw pictures in their mind, that the word visualize actually meant that in the literal sense. Ross said reading about this ability was akin to reading about a scientist finding a man without a tail! And many others echoed his sentiments. It didn’t take long for individuals across the world to take notice and realize that they have this newfound condition. Until this point they’d been happily oblivious to the fact that they were missing out on a rich experience available to most of humanity.
his case sparked the interest of many aphantasiacs, who had never before known what they had been missing out on...
THIS EXPANDED ZEMAN’S STUDY FROM ONE PATIENT, MX, TO PEOPLE FROM ACROSS THE GLOBE, RESULTING IN THE LAUNCHING OF THE MIND’S EYE, A 2015 RESEARCH PROJECT THAT STUDIED THE NEWLY COINED CONDITION, CONGENITAL APHANTASIA — OR AS IT SIMPLY BECAME KNOWN AS, APHANTASIA.
OUT OF THE 21 SELF-DIAGNOSED APHANTASIACS PARTICIPATING IN THE STUDY, 17 REPORTED VISUAL DREAMS BUT THE INABILITY TO VOLUNTARILY BRING UP IMAGES IN THEIR MIND.
Are you aphantasiac and starting to feel selfconscious? Take heart. It’s neither a disorder nor a disability, according to Zeman, who calls it “an intriguing variation in human experience.”
While the lack of ability to visualize a loved one who has gone to a better place, and even someone temporarily away, can be distressing, the condition has its upsides too. After all, aphantasia also leads to less likelihood of being troubled with flashbacks of disturbing scenes.
While research on the condition is ongoing, the understanding of aphantasia is limited. After all, the only evidence available is subjective views from within a person’s mind. And so, many questions remain. Do we really know how prevalent the condition is? Is it hereditary? Are there certain conditions, like depression or trauma, that cause acquired aphantasia (as opposed to congenital aphantasia) later in life? Maybe one day we will know more.
While you’d think that the creativity of someone without any visualization abilities would be lacking, curiously, what Galton had already discovered back in 1880 seems to be true, as many painters and famous artists have this condition. In his original observation, Galton discovered that people “who declare themselves entirely deficient in the power of seeing mental pictures could nevertheless give life-like descriptions of what they have seen and can otherwise express themselves as if they were gifted with a vivid visual imagination. They can also become painters of the rank of Royal Academicians.”

Wow!
Gorgeous!
This is just out of this world! Stunning!
I must get in there! I must see what’s inside!
I’ll tell you what’s there: Grand chandeliers dangle from the ceiling, silk curtains are draped across the windows…
Plush carpets line the floors…
The doors open and close noiselessly…
I want to see it for myself.
But I won’t eat anything there! I won’t drink! I just want to glide over those carpets…
Forget about it. It costs money to get inside.
And he?
No chance.
166 / THE MONSEY VIEW
He can get in? Why him and not me?
Why? Ha, ha, ha…
Because he’s a wealthy merchant. He dines here every day!
Oh, he’s going in.
And you — you’re just a villager who grows some vegetables to feed your children…
I must see it from up close…
Oy, I didn’t see anything. I’m staying here. Soon the man will leave, and he’ll tell me what it looks like inside.
Hey, you! What are you doing here?
Wealthy? For now. If he keeps dining in our luxury inn every day…
I’m waiting for that wealthy man who went inside.
He’ll soon be poor!
What does this tell us?
“Don’t fear, Avram… Your reward is great indeed” (15:1). We do many mitzvos and amass a wealth of zechusim. But if a person places himself in a dangerous situation and is saved by a miracle, he uses up the zechusim saved for him for Olam Haba. Avraham Avinu worried about this. He said: “I was in the kivshan ha’esh; I warred with kings; I put myself into places of danger — perhaps I already wasted all of my reward in this world?” Hashem answered him: “Don’t fear, Avram. I’ve done these miracles for you for ‘free.’ Your reward in Olam Haba will be very great!” (Source: Dubno Maggid)
