Happiness is Homemade: A Torah approach to personal growth, marital harmony and childrearing
by Rachel Arbus

Product Description
Happiness is Homemade is a timely resource that helps families navigate contemporary life. The book is the product of more than thirty years of research and counseling Jewish families and individuals who come from a broad range of observance levels.

Recognizing the influences and dynamics that are unique and particular to our times, the book explores why some of the educational methods that were successful in the past have limited impact today - and, more importantly, it tells us what works! Happiness is Homemade is founded solidly on the Torah's enduring wisdom, and bears approbations from Rabbi Chaim Pinchus Scheinberg, Rabbi Matisyahu Salomon, Rabbi Eliyahu Ber Watchfogel and Rabbi Eliyahu Fisher.

This book examines such common issues as:


how to nurture respect and responsibility
how to provide appropriate attention
how to establish and maintain boundaries
how to deal with sibling rivalry
how to guide teens through the adolescent years
how to diffuse rebellion, apathy and obstinacy
how to boost self-esteem
