About this listen

 Jacob interweaves Jewish contemplative traditions with the raw realities of parenting multiple children, sharing a transformative moment when sitting with his crying twins led to unexpected peace. Drawing on Rashi's interpretation of "choosing life," he explores how ordinary parenting moments - from midnight feedings to diaper changes - become gateways to presence. The episode moves beyond standard mindfulness advice, instead offering a grounded approach to finding pockets of peace within parental chaos. His personal story about discovering meditation through desperation resonates particularly when he describes how his twins mirrored his own breath, revealing how our children often become our greatest teachers.
