In this Shalom Bayis class given before Rosh Hashana, Rebbetzin Neustadt explores the concept of how marriage and our relationship to Hashem are intertwined. Taking us back to the women in the desert who donated their mirrors for the Mishkan, she draws a parallel to the selfless acts in marriage and child raising we do that indeed can give something to Hashem. A beautiful class.
Why does Chazal suggest the ideal age for marriage as being 18? Rebbetzin Neustadt gives a fascinating exposition on the various ages and stages that bring an infant through childhood to adulthood, explaining what each milestone accomplishes in the maturity of the child.

But how do we learn to give when in modern society, most people get married emotionally depleted?
Giving is one of the biggest building blocks of a marriage. How do we feel we are sincerely giving when we are busy with cooking and cleaning and changing children?

Let̢s use the power of our minds to get what we need, and to reach out to others.
In building our homes, the physical side of life is also quite important. Rebbetzin Neustadt fields questions on how far we should take eating healthy, and if being extreme is what Hashem wants.
