WELCOME TO ASHER TO THE YATZAR
THANKING HASHEM FOR THE WISDOM WITHIN OUR BODIES THROUGH THE POWERFUL BRACHA OF ASHER YATZAR
 

How can you keep smiling when tragedy strikes… twice? In this episode, Yisroel Besser talks with Yossi Hecht; media personality, author, musician, cancer survivor and husband about his incredibly inspiring life story. They discuss the ways that Yossi was able to harness and exude an incredible simchas hachayim despite losing his ability to walk and the devastating loss of his mother shortly thereafter. How was Hashem Yossi’s shadchan? Who usually gets pesicha d’neila of Yom Kippur in Rabbi Bender’s Shul? And how do you pronounce Dovi Safier’s name? 📰 Find more great Mishpacha content here: Website - www.mishpacha.com Twitter - https://twitter.com/themishpacha Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/familytable_mishpacha Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mishpachamagazine 📰 About Us: Mishpacha was founded in 1987 on a dream. Aiming to facilitate the exchange of ideas and values between the varying streams within the Orthodox Jewish world, among them the Hassidic, Yeshivish, Sephardic, and Modern Orthodox communities, publisher Eli Paley and editor Rabbi Moshe Grylak launched a phenomenon: Mishpacha magazine. The brand’s first English edition, published in 2004 due to popular request, took the Jewish communities of North America, Europe, South Africa and Australia by storm with world-class journalism, fiction, and op-eds that set the agenda from Shabbos tables to board rooms. Everyone wanted to be a part of the conversation. Mishpacha’s reach further expanded in 2006 with Family First, a full-color weekly magazine connecting tens of thousands of Jewish women and girls around the world. Today some 250,000+ readers on every continent across the globe make Mishpacha magazines a part of their lives. The conversation continues. 📰 Channel tags - #Misphacha #Jewish #Magazine

In the summer of 2019, Yossi Hecht’s life was drastically changed. The doctors found a tumor in his spine and he needed a number of surgeries to remove it. One of the repercussions from such invasive surgeries, is that the ability to go to the bathroom can oftentimes be affected. With advice of his Rabbeim, he embarked on a campaign for individuals to have more concentration on the bracha of Asher Yatzar. He saw personal wonders and has therefore made it his mission to try to inspire others to be more thankful. Thus, using the blessing as a conduit to appreciate all of the good bestowed upon us.

Yossi Hecht has been a light onto our lives since the day we met him. During one summer day myself and Moshe Avigdor went to visit Yossi in the hospital as he was dealing with many surgeries and other struggles. Being that this was the first time we were meeting him, we honestly thought that we would be bringing him the Chizuk he needed. After spending some time with him, the opposite was happening. His natural Simchas Hachaim was contagious. We felt it. About an hour into the visit he asked us to write a song to the words of Shachris “Ki Hu Levado… Borei Refuos” only Hashem is the creator of healing. A few minutes later we had the song. Written by all of us together. Enjoy and remember doctors are only messengers from G-D. Composed and performed by: Joey Newcomb, Moshe Avigdor, and Yossi Hecht Produced and Arranged by: Doni Gross Recorded at: DeG studios, NYC Video filmed and edited by: Crunch Time Media Directed by: Moshe Finkelstien Special thank you to Camp Simcha for allowing us to film on location
