400. Modern-Day Mysticism with Rabbi Chaim Miller

Get Yourself Optimized - A podcast by Stephan Spencer - Thursdays

According to today’s Get Yourself Optimized guest, “You're coming back to work on something which you didn't get right before.” I hope you’re ready for some deep esoteric wisdom that is universally applicable. Rabbi Chaim is an incredibly accomplished author and educator dedicated to studying and teaching the Jewish faith, and he’s here to celebrate the show’s 400th episode with his wisdom and teachings. Rabbi Miller is a graduate of Haberdashers' Aske's School in London and Leeds University's Medical Science program. He began full-time Torah study at 21, delving into his Jewish heritage. Rabbi Miller published the popular, Kol Menachem Chumash, Gutnick Edition, which simplified over 1,000 intricate discourses of the late Lubavitcher Rebbe into layman's terms. Rabbi Miller's recent achievements include the groundbreaking biography, Turning Judaism Outward, which details the life of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. He also set a new benchmark for translating Chasidic philosophy in his multivolume work, Practical Tanya. We discuss some incredibly thought-provoking topics, and I'm confident this episode will provide great value for anyone who desires to learn about the Jewish faith or improve their spiritual life.
