Testimonials from Jewish Leaders, Leading Rabbonim, Lecturers, and Mashpiim
Rav Dov Ber Cohen
Educator, Maggid Shiur at Aish HaTorah, and Author of Mastering Life: A Unique Guidebook to Jewish Enlightenment
What a book! In his first Sefer, my dear friend Benji Elson takes us by the hand on a step-by-step journey of transformation through Sefirat Ha’Omer. This book is bursting with profound insights, powerful teachings, and hands-on practical excercises to help you change your life for the better. It will help you connect more to yourself, others, and most importantly, Hashem.
I have known Benji Elson for over a decade and have consistently been moved by his authenticity and endless search for truth. I am delighted to see that he has been able to package many of the pearls of wisdom that he has gathered along the way into such a wonderful, eloquent, and aesthetically beautiful Sefer! I am confident that this book will help yidden develop a deep relationship with Hashem, as well as themselves.

I am thankful for your perspective and the way it pushed my omer reflections further this year…. With the help of your river metaphor and imagery, I was able to think a little bit further into what that humble act motivated by love for community looks like in my life.

This is beyond amazing. It has been very aligned with some themes I’ve been moving through recently in my life. Thank you.

I'm been reading your daily teachings every noon after lunch …
More than once I found your daily 'Vort' beautifully matching the matters I was dealing with on the same day. I even wrote some of your ideas in my notebook. So thank you!
Shay Mendelovich
Tel Aviv, Israel
Wow. So so spot on. Your teachings are very in sync with what I have been feeling each day. Thank you!

I have so much to say… I read the teachings each and every day. Some days, like yesterday, I read it 3 times in a row to really hear what you were saying…. You’ve helped me understand a deeper connection that each of the Sefirot have to each other. What a gift! You have also provided me with exercises each day for me to ponder and question. Many times I think hmmm maybe I should write my answers down. But I haven’t yet. I’m just keeping them in my head. And if all of that isn’t enough, you’ve sent me on a quest for my own answers to new questions!
Tamy Jacobs
Evanston, Illinois
I started reading about the Omer for the first time last year. I was taking notes and tried to do a little learning in the home with some friends once a week but it was really challenging to find time to even read every day, much less take notes and condense information. So I totally appreciate … the work you’ve put into this!
Paul Berkowitz
Yafo-Tel Aviv, Israel
Wow, thank you for reminding me that every challenge is part of the larger process of searching for truth. It really helped elevate the “issue” I am currently. By tying the struggle to the truth-discovery process I don’t have to judge it as harshly for being so difficult. I can give myself a lot more love and patience for not having clarity yet because [the process of discovering my] truth is a complex and large endeavor.
