Body and Soul

Ninety-nine percent of illness is due to people neglecting their health.

Midrash, Vayikra Raba 16:8

• What is the Torah view on health and fitness?
• How is living a healthy lifestyle good for your soul?
• Why is it so hard to live that way?
• What is the best way for a busy person to create healthier habits?

“Compellingly interesting. It even has a chance of motivating you to change your eating habits! I found myself paying more attention to my diet and exercise after reading it. Highly recommended.”
