The MOST Important Part of Hitbodedut / Beginner Tips

Описание: The most important part of hitbodedut is showing up. Showing Hashem that it is important to you to spend time with Him every day, no matter what. Words or no words, prayers or no prayers, the main thing is that you took time out of your day to be alone with Him. In fact, the definition of the word "Hitbodedut", means "being alone" or "secluding", so don't be discouraged if its hard to talk during Hitbodedut, the main thing is you show Hashem your will to be close to Him.

Prayer and emunah (faith) go hand in hand. Prayer, and especially hitbodedut and personal prayer in your own words, make God so much more real to you. If you realy believe in a Creator, then He's someone you can talk to. And the more you pray and recieve divine intervention the more faith you will gain, and the more small miracles you will start to notice. God is not just a figurehead from the torah (bible) that exists for Judaism, major religions, and morals. A connection to HaShem (God in Hebrew) is meaning, purpose, and direction. He is the source of your soul, your life force, the universal truth, and the reason you are alive. True happiness is inner happiness and inner peace. Inner peace comes from a meaningful life. Depression, anxiety, and sadness come from a desire and and dependence on outside sources of happiness and excitement, but when the simcha (happiness) is radiating from within, from the soul, nothing can take that away, no matter what external events, dealing with challenges, or difficult situations come up. Rebbe Nachman of Breslev says this from of meditation (personal prayer and hitbodedut / hisbodedus) is heaven on earth, like living in paradise. Rabbi Nachman of Breslov writes that the only way to reach true simcha/happiness is through perfect emuna (faith), and trust (bitachon), because then you have nothing to worry about, nothing to fear, and can relax. The best cure, the most effective self help and natural emotional healing, is to realize that God exists, loves us, and that everything is for the best!
