Teachings of the Trees By: Rabbi Ephraim Nisenbaum

The fifteenth day of Shevat, Tu B’Shevat, is called the New Year for Trees. Strictly speaking, this title draws a legal distinction related to the laws of tithing in the Land of Israel. Tithes must be separated from any produce grown in Israel before it may be eaten. In a given year, the fruit taken as tithe from one tree may represent the owner’s other trees of the same species. However one year’s fruit may not be tithe for another year’s harvest. Tradition teaches the new year for fruit begins on the fifteenth of Shevat, because most of the winter rains will have passed and the sap of the new growth has begun to flow: the dormant tree is waking from its winter sleep. A tree that blossoms before Tu B’Shevat is considered last year’s produce; if it blossoms after Tu B’Shevat, it belongs to the new year. Other than the day’s significance for tithing, there is no source in the Talmud or Midrash for celebrating Tu B’Shevat. Yet from later sources we find many customs regarding the celebration of Tu B’Shevat: the practice of eating various fruits; the custom of dressing in one’s Shabbos finery for the new year for trees, because the Torah compares the human being to a tree (Deuteronomy 21:19). Let us examine the comparison between man and trees in order to understand the message on Tu B’Shevat for humankind. The tree goes through cycles in its life. The heavy-laden tree of summer empties itself of fruit in the autumn, and then slowly loses its leaves, one by one. By winter time, the tree stands shorn of its previous glory. For all purposes, it appears to have died. But then comes Tu B’Shevat! In the midst of the cold winter days, when all vegetation seems frozen or dead, the sap of the tree starts to flow beneath the surface bark. Rising slowly from roots buried in the hardened soil, the sap pushes its way up, pumping new life into outstretched branches that reach towards the heavens. In life, we too often go through cycles of growth. Periods of renewal and growth may alternate with times of stagnation or dormancy. Rabbi Shlomo Wolbe cites that this cycle is part of man’s nature. He adds that a person must not become disillusioned when spiritual growth seems halted; the “low” period will usually be followed by a “high” period that will yield new opportunities for growth. That is the message of Tu B’Shevat: Even when we feel lethargic, in a rut, and seem to have lost the drive to achieve, we must not despair. Just as winter is an annual hiatus in the life cycle of trees, so bouts of lethargy and unproductivity are necessary phases in the human cycle. Just as with the coming of spring, life-giving sap moves imperceptibly through the trees to branches stretching to the sky, so we too will have renewed energy from deep within our spiritual reservoirs, so long as we set our goal heavenward. There is another message in the New Year for Trees. Rabbi Gedaliah Schorr points to a difference between trees and annual plants. Although trees require some regular maintenance, they produce fruit each year without any new planting. Plants and vegetables, on the other hand, must be reseeded each year in order to grow. If a tree is not given proper care, however, it will die. Man, says Rabbi Schorr, is like the tree. With good maintenance, we need not start over from the very beginning with each goal we set for ourselves. We can build on past accomplishments to go even further. But, as with the tree, we require the proper care to avoid spiritual damage and to grow anew. Tu B’Shevat inspires us to remember our similarity to the tree. We must be careful to protect ourselves, in order to strive towards greater achievements without having to constantly start over again from scratch. Reprinted with permission from www.torah.org

WRIST STRETCH FOR TEXTERS by Mrs. Sharon Green, CPT In this age of multiple texting we may not think about the repetitive movements our hands make over a long period of time and what this may cause‌ that is, till we feel pain. If you do feel pain, it’s important to rule out carpal tunnel syndrome by seeing your primary care physician. You may have tendonitis which is the breakdown of soft tissue surrounding a joint and may be tender to the touch. In this case you may be instructed to rest your hand, apply ice, take anti-inflammatory relief like ibuprofen and even wear a wrist brace if necessary. Fitness experts are trained to help avoid injury by working all the joints and muscles, including the hand, a most essential component of our anatomy, used far more than any other! Try this preventative exercise to keep your hand in working motion and maintain arm and wrist flexibility: With your left forearm on the table, let your left hand hang over the edge of the table. Using your right hand, grab the fingers of your left hand and bend your left hand at the wrist, slowly moving it up and then down as far as possible without pain. Repeat with the opposite hand. Increase up to 20 repetitions, twice daily. 0UV 6KDURQ *UHHQ LV D FHUWLÀHG SHUVRQDO WUDLQHU WKURXJK 1$60 1DWLRQDO $FDGHP\ RI 6SRUWV 0HGLFLQH ZKR RIIHUV WUDLQLQJ WR LQGLYLGXDOV DQG JURXSV RI DOO DJHV -RLQ KHU :HGQHVGD\ DQG 7KXUVGD\ JURXS ZRUNRXWV E\ FDOOLQJ &35 $(' ÀUVW DLG LQVXUHG 44
