Since the dreadful attacks of October 7, 2023, Jews all over the world have been combating anxiety, distraction, and stress. We're searching for meaning inside the madness. While Israel's army fights the war of bodies, and government officials and journalists wage the war of minds, we are all soldiers in the war for wellness.
If we don't invest in this war for wellness, we might lose the health, resilience, and faith we need for fighting the other wars. We can get obsessed with what's happening "over there," forgetting that our lives are happening right here. As individuals and as a nation, we might fall into anxiety and depression, or lash out irresponsibly in anger.
Even after the guns go quiet — hopefully soon — the war for wellness will continue as our emotional and spiritual wounds slowly heal. Although our bodies will again be safe and secure, our disturbed souls will yearn for peace and balance. We'll wonder why we must suffer to live in this little corner of the Middle East. We might even ask if it's worth all the trouble.
