Each month I host an open session called Soul Trait Studio, a mussar practice session focused on the soul trait of the month. Monthly Session guides are stored here on devotaj.substack.com. The current month is available to all and previous months are available to subscribers at the monthly, yearly, or beloved levels.

Come when you can. All registrants for the month will receive the video the following day. The Soul Trait Studio for Adar 578r is March 17, 2024 from 3-4:30pm ET on Zoom, registration required - no charge but your time.

I consider your time to be the exchange for this offering, which is why I don’t charge money to register. While it is always an option to attend on your own time, via the recording I send out the next day, these sessions remain free of monetary charge because of those who do commit to attending in real time.
