I have listened in full to the audible and read in full the book. It’s words are alive. They ring in my ears with things that happen in my every day life. My heart is searching, my mind is reeling with thoughts and my soul is longing for more of mussar and it’s blessed light in my life. Thank you, Rabbi Lapin for introducing me to this boo and beautiful person, Ruchi Koval. Thank you for the newness I feel and new hope I have.

So important today, with Marxism & Atheists are killing God! The citation where Moïse is negotiating with the Engels to have the Tora for us, human beings! And the reason why we need it, why we need spirituality, is to CIVILIZE us!

Highlight of the book!

Truly an inspiring listen! Even if one is unfamiliar with Judaism, the author explains well Jewish concepts and Hebrew words. Thank you so much, Rebbetzin!!

Soul Construction is a beautiful, relatable and insightful read. Ruchi guides you through so many practical scenarios in life with ways to elevate the human experience. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to live a peaceful and happy life. I consider myself a self-help book junkie and this is definitely one of my new favorites! Do yourself a favor and listen!

Inspirational and transformative!

I am thankful that I found this book right now, as I am craving more spirituality in my life. This Jewish teaching of character development called mussar is indispensable for one’s life in the pursuit of becoming a better person. Being good takes an everyday effort and this book reminds me of what needs to be done. I am actually going to buy the hard copy and keep it in my bed side table so I can read it often to be reminded and create a muscle memory.
The book was insightful and I loved that Ruchi ( I actually know her, how cool is that?) used anecdotes and some personal examples to illustrate the stories. Also, just as an example of how often we fall of the wagon on being good, I had just read the passage of expressing kindness towards others, when Ruchi said that she was the dishwasher tyrant, and I totally saw myself in her story. I am the exact same person. My kitchen is my domain and I am terrible to anyone who trespasses it. At that moment I decided I was going to change. One week later, I was cooking and my poor husband came to get something in the refrigerator and naturally took a minute too long, or I thought so, and I was so rude to him saying that he was crowding my space. One week, that is all it took for me to forget what I had to attentively listened to.
YES, I will definitely need to read This book many time over.

Just amazing.

Out of the hundreds of books I have read in my lifetime, (personal development is my favorite genre), this one holds firm in the top 5 most transformational works I have come across. I was blown away by its rich concepts (new to me), thorough research, and obvious lifetime dedication of its author. I hope someday I achieve a 10th of what the author has in her lifetime, and all of God's ideas he has for me. I believe this book is a very important catalyst that has come to me at exactly the right time, by divine design.

A truly transformational book
