Welcome to our listeners globally and Coast to Coast in the US. You are at the right URL WERB radio.com, at the right time. And you are on another program of East to West, and this is Eitan Battat.
Hello, my friends and loyal listeners, it is fabulous to be back right here with you broadcasting another program of East to West. I missed last week; it was the Jewish New Year. In fact, we are in that critical time between the Jewish New Year to the days of Atonement. Those days are considered to be the Ten Days of Repentance, or Aseret Yemei Teshuvah in Hebrew. This is a period of deep reflection and spiritual significance in Judaism. This time of the year provides a unique opportunity for personal introspection and growth. As individuals, we seek to reconnect with our moral and spiritual values, but we should do that all the time. We should not have a specific time of the year to repent or for that matter, look for personal introspection. It is also a time for forgiveness, but forgiveness should be exercised all year long.
The power of forgiveness is huge. It provides the ability to heal, transform, and liberate oneself from anger or resentment and pain, allowing space for peace and renewal. Music and its ability to offer comfort; the release is very forgiving. It knows no judgment and accepts you and your feelings whenever they are, wherever they are. And it’s a great segue to welcome all of you to another East to West songbook where you enter – literally – the chill zone. I assure you a blend of wonderful, smooth, cool music that will be as relaxed as sunset drive. So for the next two hours and join me on a journey around the world with music featuring the amazing Andrea Bocelli, Jimi Hendrix, Barry White, and many more.
So, whether you are winding down or just soaking in the moment, stay with me for the next two hours.
